he has to start somtime right?

 

its not hard, the helms will tell you everything you need to know.

 

There was a 30 some page "how to" on here that I used to install an ITR LSD in my GSR tranny. My buddy and I had never so much as opened a transmission before but the how to showed us everything. I can't find the how-to now tho - I might have the pages printed out somewhere at home.

 

i would also be interested in write up...

seeing LSD is not covered in my honda tech book

 

I know a real while back there was an issue I wanna same honda tech or scc but it had a h22 going into a civic in one article, building the h22 bottom up in another. and the installed an lsd into an h22 tranny in the same issue.

I really wish I had the magazine right now. I am talking about like 4 years but I saved it for so long I just dont know where it is now.

But some where there should be a write up on this. Id say search the internet.

 

installing a Limited Slip Differential is damn near hte same as installeing a normal differential. the helm manual covers basic replacement items liek this best.

 

Trannys suck. Not my forte at all. Although I've taken them apart and all that goody goody ****.........they suck *****.

Transaxle.

You are correct, except you need to worry about tolerances. The LSD uses a different bearing (ITR sealed bearings) and you need to shim the diff to spec.

 

Ur right, but I remember a Honda Tuning mag from Feb. that gave step-by-step how-to's, in a dust-free environment...blah...blah. Mike(bulldognprelude) from ChicagolandPreludeClub did my Quaiffe, not easy. We had to shimmy it. One6 then RE-shimmy'd it.

 

the helms tells you everything you need to know about clearances and how to find them and how to adjust them. the how-to is in the helms. Get one.

He's right. That is how I installed my Quaife and how Flyrod installed 4 on his and other Preludes. That is also why I posted a link to the Helm website...

Oh and the Quaife's bearing are no different than the OEm open Diff.'s.

yeah but then there's the preload issue on the quaife.

there's a few writeups here and there. but definitely get a helms. trust me on that one.

 

Not correct. H22 LSDs use the same bearings as the stock diff. The bearings are conical and require a specific amount of preload that is adjusted with shims. This is true for both LSD types I've installed. Numerous Quaifes and my own Kaaz. Now that I've done it half a dozen times, it would only take an hour or two to install another one (plus I bought all the shims!!).

I'm sorry, I was speaking about the OEM ITR tranny into a b-series tranny. The ITR LSD uses a different bearing than the GSR open diff. Sorry to cause confusion, I did not notice which forum I was in, lol
