Ok I am getting a 240 with a stock sr20det (type 3 I believe) already installed in it. I still would like to upgrade the stock lsd on it and would really like to have the spec-r 6-speed transmission. Or I might be able to get them to install a whole s-15 setup (lsd, transmission, motor) as part of the deal here.
But I would like to find out; Is it possible to trade a spec-r 6-speed transmission onto the SR20DET that is already in there? Is that good, bad, what are some concerns? Or, would it be more sensible not to put the 6-speed spec-r transmission where the 5-speed used to be on the non spec-r SR20DET?
Also, about this helical lsd that comes with the s15 setup; is it 2 way, 1.5, or something different altogether? It's not clutch contolled or a viscous right? Isn't the helical components part viscous in some aspect though? Which one of these would last longer hold up better?
I don't really get which lsd types are better for drifting. would the helical lsd be considering good in drifting, how about the 1.5 or 2 way? From what I read about the clutch controlled lsd are nicer than the viscous tpe but what's up with this helical type. And I still hear conflicting statements about which 1.5 or 2 way is preffered for drift, :help please
