Got the car back today, what was done:
Exedy stage 1 clutch.
Exedy lightened flywheel.
Spoon LSD.
MFactory 3/4/5 close gearset. (1.695/1.296/1.000).
The LSD is very noisy, clunking when not under load, but will settle a bit after 1k, as its not a daily drive I can live with it for the grip, which is outstanding. Heel & toe is excellent with the clutch & flywheel. But the best has to be the gears, you change up when in vtec like they arnt there, the revs drop only 1k, vtec is instant! Changing up from 2-3-4 is absolutely awsome, sadly 5th could be shorter, as it drops about 2.5k, not much in it from oem. I may change it to the MF 1.130 5th. Still labour, but it is at the top of the shaft so easier. I dont know about this combo with the 4.9 or 4.78, I guess it depends on what you need, for me it is plenty fast. Town driving feels strange, 5th @40mph! Overall massive grin factor! Just a quick review as its the first day back..
