I know there are 457 out now as well as 477, but I was wondering if anyone knows the availability of the Amuse setup, 4.5:1, in both the honda tuning issue and the best motoring dvd, where they shined on the touge.

That car with the full amuse setup seemed to just be an unbelievable street car!

Their specs from the BMI dvd are:

Engine: Stock
ECU: Amuse
Headers: Amuse
Exhaust: Amuse R1 single
Tranny: Stock
Final Drive: 4.5:1
LSD: Cusco RS
Dampers: Amuse Hi-tech
Springs Front: 12kg Rear: 14kg
Pads: Amuse R1
Tires: Potenza RE-01 F/R 255/40R 17

And is their ECU not compatible with 2004's 2.2 liter engine?

 

You know I saw that too but I think it's a custom item. They've never listed it for sale.

 

Unless the fuel and timing maps are specifically for the 2.2, then it won't be "compatible" with a 2.2.

 

You know, if you round up 4.44:1 becomes 4.5:1

 

how is that? its a 4.44 not a 4.47 or something as such...

I guess if you did bad math it would round up to 4.5

Maybe its a japanese typo that reads "4.5:1" but the "1" was meant to be a 7?

4.5:1
4.5:7

Pretty close?

 

The only way to know for sure is to take the thing out and count teeth (45 on the ring gear and 10 on the pinion) and since that is not going to happen, all this is just speculation.

 

I'm sure Amuse would let you open up their diff to count teeth if you said "Pretty Please?".

 

mattnyu99, you're wrong.

First of all, 4.77:1 means that: 4.77pinion laps= 1 gear lap. So as you can understand, a 4.5:7 gear set would be impossible, cause 4.5 pinion laps, for 7gear laps is just odd.

The correct is 4.57:1, not 4.5:7


I also have that DVD and I strongly believe (IMO) that 4.5:1 is a 4.57:1, but they forgot the 7..
And remebmer that the mod list on the video is in-completed. The amuse S2k, has a larger ammount of items than that.

As I said before, the list is in-completed
. The brakes aren't just a "R1 pads" but a whole Front Brake conversion, with 6pot calipers, and costs $3.500.

Also the exhaust isn't the single R1. This is just a single STREET exhaust. The exhaust is a R1000 full racing exhaust, without silencer etc..
