So you are saying that with this kit I will be able to drop from whatever RPM I would like and I will be completly ok.
this kit will only prevent failure in the diff, cv and axles
for serious competition you will need to upgrade the gearbox and clutch as well
for those interest in using a 240sx diff, which is lighter and smaller than the R33, you can check these links for more information

kandamotorsport has also produced axles and cv rated way above 1000rwhp, if our 4 cylinders ever get there
. The outer cv has speed sensor teeth on the outer cv too so there is absolutely no modification necessary. Check my links for the shopping list.
Hey Guys,
here is the finished product, I have tested it and it works great. Also I will be racing the car on Wednesday, I will post a vid of how the car performs down the quarter.
Sorry about the size of the pic, but you can get a better look of everthing fitted.
Cheers

im planning on reinforcing too..
im not gonna launch..
but my plans r just
cusco LSD and CT reinforced diff housing
(a friend of mine's dad owns an axle/cv shop and hes been rebuilding axles for like 30+years..) anywho he told me the honda axles are baically the same as the "race" axles. he rebuilds the "daytona prototype" grand american cars axles and showed me both... and their like same materials and etc. i asked him if 350+rwhp will hurt em and hes like.. just run oem.. and you'll be fine.. worst case scenario he can pick me up on the wrecker and rebuild em for 5$.lol
thats my 2 cents tho.

I wonder at what rpm I can launch my car (est. 330whp) at with CT re diff and 457 gears, without destroying my rear end? Of course the higher the rpm's are at during launch, the more damage and wear that can be done, but I was just wondering if there is a sweet spot that I can get away with (1500, 2000, 2500rpm+).
1) you wont be in vtec and you will bog
2) lots of shock on the drivetrain
the main problem is if it is too sticky then you are going to hook up either way and BOOM. When I tracked my car I asked around before I made the decsion on where to launch. Everyone said it was not very sticky....
just my 2 cents



Are there any alternates?
