    Going to get ordering a oem 5.1 fd and tsx 6th gear along with an oem lsd to go with my clutch change.

    Since the car will be a daily. Will be ordering an exedy stage 1 sports organic, flywheel unsure if want to source a used jdm fkywheel and machone it or buy a brand new exedy one. Most likely exedy.

    Drove shaks car the other night and fell back in love with the shorter ratio in gesrs 1-5 !! Seriously.... surprised not many ppl have done this when they change clutches as its really a $500 exercise and such an underrated mod!

            Yes I had the parts. Funnily enough the owner's brother just picked up the items moments ago and now I have lots of space left in my room!

            I will be ordering them again 100%

              If you ask Shak nicely, see if you can take his car for a quick drive. I was telling Shak the other night that I am surprised this is not a mod anyone does with a clutch change seeing its a cheap mod and increases acceleration greatly! A very very underrated mod!

              As the car will be a daily for Julie Im opting for the Exedy Stage 1 Sports Organic clutch. Would really love the Exedy 3.6 or 3.8kg (forgot) flywheel however as the car is a daily I didnt want it too light. Went on the prowl for a JDM EP3R/DC5R Flywheel. Did soem research and our very own FN2R use the same flywheel!

              Went on the search on a couple forums and found an FN2R flywheel!



              4.6kg baby! Flywheel is apparently 50k klm old. Did some background on the username and he said the clutch/FS thread is 8000km old and the car has around 93000km..... so the flywheel is much more closer to 85k ish klm old.... oh well, the price I paid for it if the flywheel is useless its not much of a loss to me! Will get it machined next week and see how I go.

              As the post above, going to be ordering a Honda OEM 5.1FD and Accord Euro (TSX) 6th gear so when driving/.cruising normally I have the revs still relatively low!

              Also as we're now on a budget, going to be looking to install a Honda OEM LSD too!

              short term plans for the car is to aim for a Wakefield track day with ground zero ned of june so looking to change GB oil, machine front rotors, and a general service prior.

              Just changed the engine oil before too so should be good!

                Can I ask where you'll be sourcing the final drive and Euro 6th from?
                I can imagine Honda Australia would charge an arm and a leg =P

                Come the time of my clutch and flywheel install, I would consider doing this mod too =]

                  Hey Steve right?

                  I got my first batch from Asencsion MOtorsports - trader on k20a.org... He gave it to me at an incredible price. service was on top.

                  I literally just sent him a PM asking for the aprts mentioned above.

                  I'll pm u when I get the PM, and if u want it, I see if we can bulk buy and save on postage and maybe item costs?

                  PM u when I get a reply sometime in the next 2-3 days as its weekend etc.

                      Service, as in postage?

                      Yeah that'll be cool, if anything get to know what kind of price they can do. Thanks a lot =]

                      Is changing the master and slave essential for doing the final drive mod?

                        sevice as in customer service. Changing the FD doesnt require the CMC and CSC change, however a few ppl epseically on ClubRSX have CMC failures when cahnging clutches so might as welll change everything!

                          Got my flywheel back from the local shop with a resurface!


                          I know the previous post showed it at 4.6kg but they are different scales...

                            Also looking at replacing my current Alpine doubledin with a new unit Alpine Ive-W530. Simply because Julie wants USBINPUT.

                              how much is the extra labor to do a FD gear change while the box it out (excluding clutch change labor)? And who are you going to get to perform the work? Just curious.....

                                If wakefield is your benchmark, a FD upgrade will cut your time immensely. More than any amount spent on bolt on mods could do.
