I've done quite a bit of searching but didn't really find anything... Which tranny should I use? I've got an OEM everything JDM ITR tranny and i've got a B16A3 tranny w/ a KAAZ LSD in it.

I'll be using this car for drag 90% of the time with a setup that will be somewhere around the idea of..

84mm B16 turbo w/ a T4/60-1 and hopefully pushing around mid 400's to low 500 HP

TIA

 

i dont remember final ratios, but with an all stock geared jdm b16 trans, 84mm b16 at about 550 peak power, on 24.5's i was trapping about 8800? if my ghetto datalog (video camera strapped to the cage) is correct. that netted 130mph.

if the final on the jdm itr is higher, it may benefit you, if your power is up high like mine was.

fwiw, this season (if i ever get my car running again, no money) 83mm gsr, same 1-2-3, gsr 4th and a cuff, so no 5th.

it would effectivly accelerate quicker. (and run out of rpm sooner) in hopes of creating a slightly larger power "band" to take full advantage of this you need an engine that will allow for power needed and the high rpm, and a tire that will allow for the mph@ that rpm/gear (in hopes of not going "too big" and scrubbing too much power away)

 

what about the LSD's which one would be better? The KAAZ is set to 100% I believe... would that be better then the OEM type R and is it stronger?

 

anyone else?

 

sell the kaaz, sell the oem diff and buy a quaife. (or obx if you arent feeling the price tag on the quaife.)

 

why is that? ^^^ what's wrong w/ the KAAZ and the OEM?

 

bump

 

If i've got a GSR tranny torn apart at home and it just needs syncros.. Would it be wise to just rebuild that and throw a spool in it? The car will be for track only...
