I finally got my built ZC finished and went to go break in the motor. I have a L3 LSD ( i think that's what it's called). Basically if i go slow it's ok, but if i give it some gas it goes absolutely nowhere, stutters like crazy. What the hell is wrong with this thing. I have 89 Integra axles and hubs ( by the way it's a 91 hatch) , it's exactly the same setup i had when my old ZC was in so it can't be that. Any help would be great. Thanks

 

You're certain the clutch is healthy? No slipping?

 

Brand new stage 3 ACT clutch, healthy as it could be.

 

Are you sure it's your lsd?

 

timing belt off one tooth?

 

Found the problem with the LSD, took it apart, there was a friggin 10 mm bolt bouncing around in there. Don't ask me how it got there but it was there. Hopefully all will be solved now.

 

That's always nice to have a bolt loose in your transmission

 

i don't believe it originated from inside the tranny. The speedo cable attachment part is missing in my trans so i'm guessing that's how it got there. It was open when i got it, i covered it so i know i didn't drop it in there. Know i just need to get that piece, gonna need it anyway if i wanna know how fast i'm goin'.

 

Good thing you found it before it caused any serious damage.

 

"what's wrong with my lSD?"

maybe you didn't skim it enough... or let it set- why are you getting stomache cramps?


Glad you found the issue
