Lets Talk d-series

[mugen_ctr]

There's smoke coming from the exhaust when VTEC kicks in and the way it smokes is like oil leaking rather then burning.....sometimes I could see oil stain on the left handside from the engine head down the block....at first I thought it could be from the distributor but then I try to touch everywhere of the engine and the VTEC solenoid is the only thing I could feel a little bit wet there

if its coming from the exhaust than its a internal problem though i could be wrong, since im no mechanic lol, usually it also depends on the color of smoke, white indicating a gasket problem, bluish smoke the pistons rings are on there way out or seals are gone, and black smoke obviously ecu running rich a/f mixture

could also be a worn seal making it leak somewhere, are u loosing oil? and how much are u loosing?

How much does it usually cost to install a 1.5 way lsd into a d series gearbox?

to much money waste of time

But if you can't go b series you have to do what you have to do.

The d is a labour of love.

Need to do all the work ya self..

Best way is to get another engine,pull it apart and build it up,then swap it in I reckon.

That way,U can go at your pace (when U got money),still have a daily and a project to keep ya busy.

And we all know U can buy these engine for $200-$600.

It labour of love and for me have soft spot for the under dog

Putting a lsd in d series is al up to how mucj you want to spend and wait

Example my ed9 crx d16a8 dohc (which is same as ef7 zc) I got few options

1) buy new cusco or maybe Mfactory lsd centre(around $1250) and throw in my box (from free up $1000 with rebuild box at the same time)
2) Wait around look on ebay to japan yahoo actions may find zc lsd centre used for $500-700 from i have seen
Plus same cost of fitting it
3) Not worry about it save money put for b or k swap

The only reason I am doing it to mine please read my first line again lol

I just said that one honda-tech yesterday in the SOHC wire tuck thread.

Tupac said it:

"We all want to be the underdog!"

You slammed your sedan?

[Renaissance_x]

Is there any diy guides on how to put a lsd in a fwd? Maybe it's best to not even attempt it.

[markismaximus]

doubt it would be very different to fitting an LSD to a b-series box.

haha Steve,there's some pics in the batmobile thread,tell me what U think!

It's as low as I can go,the H brace is smashed up and most people comment on how low it is hahaha

I cant go lower and I come real close to hitting a lot but dont hit! Just touch sometimes and bash! sometimes lol

It dosent have that camber look at all but it's low and just on the side of practical for the roads I drive.

Oh yes,my ass cheeks have been clenched many times hahahaha

Jaime,

There would be a difference, but for the amount of money you will be paying, you would be better off doing other bolt on mods.
