i believe someone on this forum has the oem jdm lsd. i was just wondering where he got it and for how much..

 

It won't fit in the USDM tranny housing. You need the whole JDM LSD tranny, or better yet, a Quaife.

 

I want one.

 

I do

I have the full tranny though. My shop ordered a full swap JDM H22 swap W/ LSD from http://www.hondamotorsonline.com and my shop parted it out for me, selling me the tranny. After my 1/2 of the shipping costs, I paid $1,000 for it, and it had 27,000 miles. I didn't think to compare the housing to my old one, so I don't know if it would go into the US-spec housing.

top, for illusion

 

can u take the LSD unit from a jdm tranny and put it in a non-LSD jdm tranny ?

 

I think thats the big question here... I am not sure. I think it would be easier to get an aftermarket part then the JDM diff.

 

hmm for $1000 though id be close to getting a quaife

 

would a honda jdm LSD unit for $450 sound expensive?
also my friends thinks an LSD would be useless.. im unsure..

 

install is a bitch on a new diff.

also, I paid $1000 not only for the LSD but for a 27,000 mile tranny. My stock USDM one went to the crapper when jiffy lube trashed it.

 

im trying to decide if getting this LSD is worth it, i think for $450 shipped its a good deal, im dying for an LSD since i'll be all motor for now and **** it i'll be putting it in myself most likely.

 

either way, equipping a LSD is pricey... mine is getting installed today... i paid 834 shipped for the Quaife, plus the cost of splitting the gearbox case (about 3-4 hours), plus another 75 for the two different bearings... the work is all-in-all a big PITA... the only reason i'm doing it now is b/c my tranny is already dropped for my clutch and flywheel overhaul...

 

how much is it costing you in labor for the LSD install ?

 

well, like i said, i already have the tranny off to replace the clutch... so it costs about 6 hours for the tranny removal and installation, and about 4 hours to take apart your tranny and replace the differential and differential bearings... mine was supposed to be done yesterday; i paid an extra $25 to have the differential bearings overnighted through Bill Paige Honda, and they arrived yesterday morning, but Bill Paige didn't have a driver to deliver them to CDE. so, CDE didn't get my bearings until 3PM, too late to finish the install on Friday... so now I have to wait until Monday (damn ******* bill paige honda)... i'm a bit pissed as you might imagine...

 

ever have the feelings your questions are being avoided?
how much for the labor to put it in ??
and also can ya hook me up with that same price for the quaife shipped ($834) ?
i will be purchasing one very shortly

 

labor, probably about 9 hours... you have an IM message

 

For someone who knows what they are doing...with the tranny off it should take at most 4 hours.

 

4 hours is what CDE told me... but removal of the tranny and reinstallation is another 6 painful hours...

the labor on this overhaul is going to kill me...
