The GOOD thing: Even though it made a ton of noise, it hooked thru those turns like nothing Ive felt before...really made you feel as if the diff was completely locked. I can see the benefit on the track, but for street, my oem itr lsd is plenty fun with zero noise.
I think I am going to go with the OBX afterall. The guy I was going to have install it keeps telling me over and over that it will work perfectly. He says he checks them before putting them in. My brain is starting to hurt from all these decisions.
i think the guy putting it in just wants you to get obx b/c then your going to have to pay him once to put it in, and then once to remove it and put in whatever new one you get next. spend the extra coin and get the mfactory or quaife. extra 200$ now will save you in the long run... expecially if you say your going turbo.
got all my new weatherstripping on, never knew trunk weatherstrip was such a PIA!
Any tips or possible problems i may run into dropping the gas tank on my 91 crx?

just be careful on the feed hose. its hard to find one in good condition and the tank pulls on it if you dont disconnect it from the hard line first. its $92 from honda
Guys I currently have a LS tranny. Should I even spend the extra to get a b16 tranny to put the LSD in...or should I just slap the LSD in the LS tranny.
I am going to evenually turbo the car, if that helps anything.

A1 tranny + b16 = teh fail
y1 tranny + b16 = teh win
either way do what money premits. Only thing you will need to take into consideration is do it once or don't do it at all

The problem with doing it once is be prepared to drop 1-1.5g's at once (assuming you do the work yourself). LSD + Decent tranny + new synchros + new bearings + new fluid + misc. odds and ends.
Doing it once = exceeding the cost of your vehicle
. It's worth it though, IMO. To have a ridiculous baller transmission that you know is good that is.
