MFactory LSD

Those things are supposed to be great, but I kinda of dislike their forum rep's posturing. He's not bad by any means, but he comes off like the GE rep only good natured and not intentionally dishonest. It's just the flavor of his posts remind me of GE (when not lying through his teeth) and it makes me a little meh.

Sorry for the threadjack.

After receiving the diff. I wanted to check to make sure the cover bolts were torqued to spec, so I emailed MFactory.
I received a response to contact Whoopee Doo Racing, which is MFactory's authorized installer. After a conversation I learned that the cover is torqued and thread locked. I was told that some upgraded shift forks are in the works as well.

Yeah, Chris lives an hour from me. I was supposed to tune a car for him, but then the whole Bisi thing went down and since he's one of their distributors I'm suspect he's decided not to contact me now.

dayum 120mph on 10psi? thats gotta be at least 320-330whp. pretty crazy for 10psi, pretty crazy indeed.

now match my time, 11.3 @ 120

1991civicsi · « **Reply #93 on:** December 28, 2009, 09:00:19 PM »

That's 10psi of air in my slicks, not psi of boost.

I think the forks are to replace the Z6 alum ones, but not positive.

Ok Im back to work on the trans, all is good. In error I was trying to install a spring washer and a thrust washer on the mainshaft giving me an incorrect reading. the 1989 trans I am using only uses a spring washer.

Mang, when I put new bearings in a z6 tranny, that fucking interlock thing took me probably an hour to get it right, maybe more. I didn't really take notice of it when I took it apart, and then I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't shift through the gears. fucking interlock thingy. Haste makes waste, eh? That transmission is clean as fuck, like I would either eat off of it, or put my penis inside it.

Did you have to the transmission in a certain gear or in neutral when you put the casing back on?

1991civicsi · « **Reply #110 on:** April 30, 2010, 09:20:20 PM »

I havent taken it to the track yet, Ill post up when I do

Joe made a 11.5 sec pass in my car, spinning the 22in slicks throughout 1st gear. I did 12.1 and the three other passes were vac hoses, charge pipes blowing off.
The last pass the car ran hot and overheated. Gonna check it out when I get a chance. Trailered it back home

Well, the knocking sound coming from the bottom end of the block leads me to believe the bearings are spun.
Motor will come out and I may toss a fresh set of Vitaras in.

1991civicsi · « **Reply #117 on:** May 09, 2010, 09:15:42 PM »

This week I plan on having the motor on the engine stand to verify the problem.
