just wanted to know if the rsx type s came with a LSD or is that only in the type r that came with ones? And would the tranny from the new SI mate up to the motor with and problems thanks...

 

the type r is the only one with the lsd not the type s and what do you mean would the si tranny mate up ?? do you mean match up ... their both k series ... i would think the problem would only be in the platform of the car rather than the tranny bolting together with the block ... but i could be wrong cause the dc5 uses the k20a2 (02-05 type s) and the k20z1 (06 type s) while the 06 civic si uses k20z3 ... so dont take my word for it ...

 

thanks for clearing things up for me, just wanted to ask about the SI tranny cuz it already has a lsd and would have saved me the to in the doing the swap thanks alot!!!

 

I'm pretty sure it wont work. Different mounts on the 06 si tranny. However you can use a diff from one, that's what I did. LSD is ftw!

 

i personally was planning on just buying a dc5 type r lsd ... i heard mugen and quilife make one ... did i spell that right ... (probably not sorrie in advance)

 

Why not put a 06+ Si diff in your DC5 tranny?

 

The fitment with the 06 si trannt is not the problem. The problem your going to have is with the VSS sensor. The plug on the wire harness for that is different from he plug on the rsx wire harness. Most people say just to use the VSS sensor from your rsx, but i don't think it will fit in the 06 Si tranny.

The ITR LSD is probably the cheapest route if you plan on staying naturally aspirated. I know that you can get them for decent prices on ClubRSX and I know that HMotorsOnline has them for around $650ish. The Quaife is a great one as well, but it's a little bit more expensive but it's the route I will take eventually since I am boosted.

 

05 is not k20z1??? thought 05-06 was the same

If you're paying 650ish for an ITR lsd.. your getting bent over. They are not that expensive. I had one and paid 515 shipped straight from japan.

yeah im pretty much all motor so i dont really have to worry about losing tracking from boosting ...

 

when ya start doubling HP you will start losing traction boosted or all motor.

I was using HMotorsOnline as an example of where to get them, of course if you look on say... ClubRSX I am sure they can be ALOT cheaper. Don't take things so literal...

 

if i was literal i would of told you the exact price of how much they actually cost. I just told you how much i paid for mine as an example of how much they should cost around.

 

lsd is not in the k20a2 in the type s, but in the rsx lsd isnt needed stock because when i drove one i didn't feel any torque steer, but thats in a stock rsx not a hatch.
