I have a SH motor. My ? is, is there a way to get rid of that 80lbs dead weight traction control box on the back of the block? Does someone make a bracket so i can just use a regular extended shaft? Can it be done so that it can handle 400+ hp?

 

i dont think the sh tranny will even fit (in a civic)

 

yes it fits, because it is in my car right now and it has been in for about 2 years but i have been gone for most of that time...it is very much a pain to get in and out but it fits....i just want to get rid of the extra weight....

 

anybody out there try this yet...if not i guess i will just have to the old trial and error thing and see what happens....

You can use the trans with out the atts unit, you have to have the atts diff. in the trans taken out and put A factory diff. in it's place and you must also switch the outter trans case because it is deeper and you can't shim it up that much so the case must be switched also.

 

well i sort of understand what you are saying, but you must be really looking into it way to far, maybe someone else has another idea because what you explain just seems like to much work for something so simple

How am I looking into it way to far, there is no other way to do it.
If you take the atts unit of the back of your block you would understand that the unit controls traction to both axles from the one side through the atts unit and the diff has a two splined sleeves one for each axle on that one side, so there is know way to put A intermediate shaft in to that diff. on that side. If it is something so simple why haven't you done it and why are you asking for help on what to do. Trust me if there was A easier way I would of did it.

 

you either do as Dreagline says or you buy a base prelue tanny and make a bracket for the base model halfshaft.

 

The easy way is just to make a bracket and get a base prelude tranny that is alot easier then everything else you were saying how much does that tranny usually go for?

 

So if i kept as a SH and i disable the atts with the aem ems i should be able to do the 350+ hp
