Dedicated DA9 Q & A thread

[FR33K]

not too sure how you could tell without having the gbox on the car
but my s1 does about 95kms in 2nd gear and my ys1 does arund 110-115 give or take

[string]

89-91 have a S1, 92-93 have a YS1. They are totally different internally and even use different clutches.

Same gear ratios, the only difference is the input shaft diameter, which means that the clutches are identical except for the clutch disk which is the same as 92+ b-series vtec boxes.

You can't tell the ratio's from the stamp. Pull it out, put an axel in and figure it out by hand.

mine mite b long coz its only like 3000rpm at 100kmph

[FR33K]

the LS gearboxes are all long.. you wont get a short ratio gearbox in an LS as standard unless its been changed somewhere in its lifetime.

has anybody here put a lsd in their da?

[Spoon DA9R]

180sx has but he said he can't feel the difference hahahahah which i dun think its true

[sml-089]

[Spoon DA9R]

hahaha nah i just think he hasn't push his car around the corners hard enough to notice...

i couldn't tell the different with most of the "mods" , some people tell the different even with a C pillar installed, i can't feel shit even with the roll cage.......the only different that i can tell with the lsd is the wheels don't keep spinning when i launch (with a brass button clutch), when cornering, hmmm ... may be it helps a little, but not as good as what people said

adam, i am looking forward to see your 5 studs LS , will catch up with u soon

[Spoon DA9R]

when r u coming back!?!?!?!? hey found my razo knob yet?

[SKREMN]

has anybody here put a lsd in their da?

i had a high ratio box with an LSD i had a ridiculus amount of wheel tramp and then snapped the LSD on launch at WSID

If you can't notice it when cornering, you aren't cornering very hard. In tighter turns I get nothing but inside front wheel spin and i'm sure everyone else with an open diff will agree.

SKREMN: Should have gotten solid radius rods (i.e. traction bars) at first sign of wheel hop - ah well.
