New clutch & flywheel and LSD are installed and damn it is amazing - with compliments to Adrian from Toda for doing such a great job all in less than half a day
The exedy sports organic clutch grabs & bites hard which a much better pedal feel, friction point is overall the same probably slightly lower but pedal is a lot stiffer and stronger compared
to the stock one which feels very soft & weak.
Furthermore, depsite that we already have a lightened flywheel of 4.8kg, i thought i might as well change everything since the gearbox is coming out I fitted the clutch with an exedy 3.8kg flywheel.
Together as a combo, this is one of the best modification I have done to a car, the engine revs so smoothly and swiftly and feels like the car accelerates a lot faster.
I guess less power is lost through the transmission as a result of weight reduction. Definately a worthwhile investment!
As mentioned previously, I sourced a torsen type helical LSD from a CL7 Euro R, which i believe would be the same part on DC5R/EP3R and fitted it into my gearbox.
During normal driving, it acts like an open diff and being a gear type LSD its silent and doesn't chatter. So far, having driven it on the street only I am already very impressed with the improvement
of an LSD, when cornering the nose tucks in and just keeps turning without any sign of understeering! I obviously haven't pushed it anywhere to its limit on the street so I am highly anticipating to try this
at track! Research shows almost a 2second improvement over the 2007 vs 2010 FN2R at track. Due to the fact that the FN2R uses electric power steering, after installing the LSD, the steering wheel does feel a littler more heavier when taking corners at slower speeds and seems to pull your steering wheel.
