Default Dang Nabbit, 12 axles and counting......my car sucks :(

Zex 55 shot + ACT XTSS + NT-555R's + driveshaftshop.com stage ones =


12 axles. TWELVE AXLES!!!!!! Thats how many ive gone through. This is absurd. I hate this, it is impossible for the shape of a 94 accord dx coupe to travel a quarter mile in under 15.1 seconds. The Accord is done untill im finished with school. There are pieces of the splines lodged in the intermediate shaft opening. I'm trailering it back to MN sometime in late may to rebuild the tranny with a quaife and drop the H23a1.

a money shot of my permaslow accord


im a stunna.....that cant drive

Seeing a flatbed tow truck pull up to my rather low accord makes me go, "AHH EEEK!!"

Im rollin the 89 Accord LXi winter beater, a 2001 GT Palomar bike, and some shiny new balances.

It broke at the launch. 3750 rpm, car jerked, then stopped and just revved. The axles snapped/exploded at the inside joint.

Difficulty: Total bitch. Normally its quite easy replacing cvs. But when they are snapped off/exploded flush with the diff and the intermediate shaft, you gotta drill out the shaft or weld a nut to the remain stump and yank it off that way.


Cost: Should be free, Frank is very good about backing up his products. I think ima see if i can swing a deal and get some discounted Stage 2s.

i guess it never occured to you to get poly motor mount inserts or solid motor mounts..........

because that is part of your problem, the other part is that insane clutch your using......

Once you get that Quaife in, it'll distribute the power to both axles more evenly rather than over-stressing one (that open diffs love to do)...

then your clutch is too much, or how are you launching? 4k+ drops?

~3750rpm. Not full on clutch drops, I feather it a little. I think its pure clutch insanity.
