i am talking from personal experience ;)
I know what drift is and the difference with wheelspin.
I still hold by what i said.
you still holding something else !! hahhahaaa
naaa.
ive actually been pulled over by the cops in Claremont for drifting and fishtailing around a corner down Gugeri St.
You will be amazed at how well the LSD does grip into the corners when ur in VTEC. I'll take you for a spin tonite if u want ?
can someone give me a brief explanation of wot

yer that one ..
i was confused ..
But heres a little comparison for you's
Civic VTiR redline speeds compared to the Type R 4.785 box - same car
VTiR: ~ 4.4 Final Drive
1st 60km/h
2nd 100km/h
3rd 140 km/h
4th 180km/h
5th dunno - only reached 215
Type R ~ 4.785 Final Drive
1st 50km/h
2nd 80km/h
3rd 120 km/h
4th 165km/h
5th 220km/h !! i
this all means??!!?
i posted that as a guide to explain the differences between the 2 boxes and their respective redline speeds.
Sorry if it were confusing ... :/
Dont know who wrote that, but it means
In 1st gear in an EK VTiR you can reach 60 k's
In 2nd you can reach 100 k's
and so on :)
It is stating the differences between the final drives. As you can see, the Type R has a higher final drive, meaning at the higher gears (i.e 5th) it will reach a greater top speed.
I think Weezer on the forums changed his final drive to an ITR one in his Gen 2 CRX. He said it is heaps better now. Dont know what the CRX one is (assuming same as an EG6/EK4) but he said it is a lot better now than what it used to be...
ok yeh i got that part... thanks... but just an observation... doesnt that mean before 5th gear, the CTR is slightly slower than VTIR? cos say on first gear, the VTIR can rev longer ? or doesnt this take into account acceleration time?
one last thing...wtf are ger ratios?
wot does it mean whent it goes
1st gear 0.443
2nd gear 1.343
etc etc
Final drive xxx
Civic Type R... how the hell do you get a FWD to "drift"? This is perplexing... FWDs dont have Rear Wheel power, how do you get the rear wheels to spin?
I thought LSD's helped with reducing understeer anyway.
