Aside from the financial part, and most importantly; I've driven cars with quaife and stock type-r lsd and I like the more neutral feel of the honda lsd. I've never tried Kaaz but heard good stuff about them. Yeah ive heard stories about OBX ones breaking as soon as the car is put into gear or a few hundred miles after install...scary shit!

Hmm interesting to know the OEM LSD is basically as good as Quaife. I never wanted to shell out $1000+ for a Quaife LSD anyways. I've heard Kazz is good for road racing. Saw a F20C powered AE86 rockin' a Kaaz LSD, but it was worn to shit since they love to dorifto.

Dont get me wrong I never said that it was as good or better than Quaife...I just like the feel of it wiht my own personal drving style. Everybody is different and drives different..what works for me might not work best for you. But then theres also the fact the Quaife and ITR LSDs are essentially the same design both being torsion style. Quaife is known to be more durable for higher hp engines. But for all motor ITR will work/last just fine.

CONGRATS! But not to bash you bro you could have ran 12's with a b16 on a 75 shot.

even so, but with nitrous you've only got that power as long as you're on the juice. he's got the power all the time now, which may be how he likes it.

You have to say something intelligent to bash on someone...

A. What good is nitrouse on a road course or auto-x event which is what i built this engine for? Answer is that its not because your not going to run nitrouse for over a few seconds unless you are an idiot and if I raced my same car with a b16 squeezing its curtains.

B. Nitro is very cheap now, I can rig up a zex kit for 300 bucks to my motor and still run a 75 shot very safely for drag racing and smash on a b16 with nitrous. But I really dont care about drag racing I just did a few passes to see where my acceleration is at which is one SMALL variable for tackling corners.

It seems that your main point is from a budget standpoint as well. Even from that point of view b16 nitro isnt the best way to go for money sake...I could have just keept my d series motor and sleeved it and built it for over 300whp worth of turbo boost and run 12's at the strip. But thats not what I want.

Now I'm not trying to bash on you either..I built this motor for a particular purpose and I feel that I have accomplished my goals and this motor will perform very well for its purpose. What more can you ask for.

The only reason I wrote this speal is because you said "bash" like you were giving me advice or something.
