Finally got more parts in for my FG





J's Racing FX 60RS titanium exhaust
-the exhaust weighs 12 lbs and it is full titanium built. It sounded pretty deep but there's some droning during 3500-5500rpm. The engine responded a lot better expecially mid-range.


The car sitting on the hoist !

Clutch and flywheel installed.

Transmission case opended up to install the LSD.

J's Racing LSD and Spoon race clutch
-I installed a 1.5way LSD along with Spoon race clutch and an Exedy flywheel. The job was not hard but the front lower subframe and the steering rack has to be removed before you can access to the transmission. I was planning to install the oil pan as well but the J's oil pan doesn't have the built on mount location on the pan so we were not able to get it installed.

Driving- with the LSD, I notice I get a lot more grip on the front tires and it is a lot more easy to control the car by throttle. With a lighter flywheel, I got faster revs but the clutch made the car kerky while changing gears, it could be smoother if I wait the rpm drops which a normal driver would do.

I will be doing T1R suspension in this coupe days so I hope I can get the car ready for the tracking day at PR Seattle on the 22nd of this month


Thanks
Ben

 

Wow dude, that's awesome. I wish I could convince my wife to do this to her car

 

pretty neat


is there a large noticeable difference between the OEM LSD and the aftermarket one?

 

DAMN! And to think I thought your Fit was coming along.....

Great Job

 

I am working on the Fit as well but I just too busy at work and don't have time for all of them

 

hey quick question, will all dc5 clutch parts fit the fg2 tranny I am just wondering since I would love to put a lighter flywheel in and a new clutch

 

 

When does that come up for sale??? thats frickin awesome right there... whats the specs on the piping? (size wise)

I'm glad to see the tip is the turn down style.. i'm feelin that

whats the word on a header by T1R exhaust though?

 

good sh*t

 

Hey thanks a ton for listing AJ Racing's website. I went ahead and book marked it. I'd just started to consider upgrading the LSD. I noticed that just a little tweeding to the power in the car makes the front end just a slight bit wilder. So now I know I'm NOT crazy.

And that front lip, is that actually for an RSX as well or...? I don't want a kit, just a lip.

Keep it up on this car. I love it.

 

Couldn't wait long to start modifying could you?
