What type of LSD does the Y1 with opt. LSD tranny have? I believe it is a clutch type LSD, but I want to make sure. Are there any issues with this type of LSD? I know the clutches will wear out? How quickly? Any experiences?

Thanks

 

Looks like I'm wrong. It's a helical LSD, or is it? How often do these break?

 

viscous.

 

Hum, I don't think it's viscous, where did you get that from?

 

clutch-type

viscous i believe only in ITR gearbox

 

Hum, I am more confused than I was before. I read at some places that all honda LSDs are helical LSDs, and now I'm hearing they're viscous an clutch-type. Any more options?

 

Anyone knows?

 

Helical Standard issue in the Y1's with LSD's here in Japan

 

So are there any issues with them? Are they known to break? What should I look for?

 

There has got to be someone that knows around here! Anyone??

 

..?? OK here's the low down..
they can hold about 300hp @ the wheels

there are a "GEAR TYPE LSD"...... 100% no B.S. unless some of you guys have received trannys fron Japan that have been stamped LSD and the owner changed them out to a after market type..

I'm looking at buying a Y1 LSD tranny, but the J1 tranny has shorter gears. I don't care about highway driving and gas mileage because this car is going to be a track only car in a few years. I probably won't be able to afford to throw a quaife LSD if I buy a J1 tranny, so are the Y1 gears that much longer than the J1 tranny?

 

sorry i'm a new crx owner.. what tranny came in the 90 crx si's?

 

Here's an old thread on some problems people have with these trannies. The chatter problem hasn't been solved yet, but I may have found a solution, haven't tried yet though.
