Heh, got myself an DC5 ITR LSD on eBay today. This will help once I boost the K-series

not expensive compared to a quaife, kaaz, or any other aftermarket LSD. Nice score.

^^^ what he said.

And Nova was right.. DC5 ITR has a K20A, and even though that's an engine with a 6 speed tranny, the LSD bolts right up to any other K-series tranny, including my 5 speed K20A3

Heh, now all I got to do is order me up that turbo kit.... 280whp here I come (and before anyone argues, trust me... even this bottom feeder of the Ks can handle that much, even more power).

Great tires... I have (Michelin Pilot Sport)

Axles... not needed. Only one turbo'd ep I know of suffered broken stock axles, and this guy was had been boosting and drag racing for over 18 months (over 6 months straight at 14psi even dor daily driving)

Clutch... I'll buy that once the stock one slips all to hell, and then I'll install that, along with an RSX-S flywheel, with the LSD if I don't get to it sooner.

Brakes... I'm going to get new pads, SS lines, and 5.1 fluid soon. No need for new rotors/calipers.

As for getting the whole tranny... nah, that's okay. No need for an extra gear with all the extra torque I expect to be throwing around under boost. If, for some reason, I ever decide I do want that 6th forward gear, I'll save up and get the K20A2 that comes with it.
