Not just the diff, but the whole "pumpkin".

Housing and all... Seems that our housing can be just as weak as the diff itself. I want rid of it all.

Any ideas where one would obtain a stronger housing, diff, etc?

 

That would be REAL nice, Ive heard the stock unit is REALLY heavy too. Im starting to wonder about my 30,000mi on my diff.

as a matter of fact I was thinking (today even)about a possible rear end swap - and was trying to think of suitable donors

 

A couple of things from spoon.

I have not seen a complete assembly available. As previously posted Spoon has many components to beef up the back end. I recall the half shafts have to be sent to them for upgrade (I think the shot peen them or something).

 

We have pretty beefy half shafts in this car, and Wesmaster is the only person I have heard of that has actually broken an axel from torque.

Atlease for now, I am just looking at the diff pumpkin.

What parts exactly does spoon make that are stronger? The links I have seen say they make some parts stronger, but it doesn't say which parts.

 

krazik,

Actually Wesmaster isn't the only person who broke the rear axle. If you remember the menace name Chris(I think ChrisS2000? not sure) who even got banned for being crazy eons ago at Honda-Acura.net days, then you will know that he is actually the first one to break the axle from driving abusively.
He was the one who likes to dump the clutch at 6Krpm repeatedly and bragged about racing with his brother's Z3 roadster and his supposedly father's Porsche.
His story often made me cringe and based on his counteless abuse stories, he is the only one who truly drove the car like he stoled it. He broke his rear axle eventually and I believe Honda covered it.

Haven't seen him around, I guess he sold the car. He had many complain especially the lack of low-end grunt, hence dropping clutch at high rpm every chance he gets.

 

Spoon Sports makes a Differential Mount Assembly:

Tell them the "broken axle S2000" sent you.

As far as I could tell - deciphering - is that they offer stiffer mounts, the rubber parts, and part of the diff. housing.

Also offered is that cross beam and they say that helps reduce flex.

I was checking out my Diff yesterday and will take some video today to try to find whats causing the noise Im getting.

 

it's all in the hyperrev book. just need to read japanese :-/
