oh ya hor ok ok sorry for my lack knowledge...hmm thinking of it also d now...found this rigid collars seems not bad hmm...FD = Final drive
My tuner said B20 use 4.75 FD, "banyak cepat mau tukat gear''. I don't know what he meant?
sorry i am a new honda owner,newbie,do correct me if i am wrong, from the info i dig on wiki and honda tech, S80 gear box is from ITR from 96 while 98 and after, they using N3E gearbox.. both are 4.785 FD but i heard that N3E gearbox are with longer 4th and 5th ratio which improve the cruising... is it?:rolleyes:4.4 & 4.785 FD is an OEM one. 4.4 FD coming with original B16B fr EK9 while 4.785 FD coming with original B18cR fr ITR 98 spec S80, U can search around wats the differ between this 2 FD. But I prefer 4.4 FD for street type use. 4.785 FD give u more torque estimated 9% extra virtually... so ur rpm much lighter than 4.4. For city driving, 4.785 give u more torque so reduce gear changing but in h'way .. if u at 5th gear u will feel like there is another gear n off course fuel consumption higher than 4.4FD. But remember basic theory la ... more power = much higher fuel consumption
Another option is u play around with gear ratio, there a lot of aftermarket short gear ratio u can play with ... just standby $$$ onli. Try la search around ...
4.9 FD is after market one like MFactory etc ... to me 4.9 suitable for track not for street use
Gear ratio will determine whether u be in front or behind if side by side wif other car that same hp as ur car ... Remember .. the best bout honda vtec is not onli the engine but GB as well ... try play around but just prepare enough $$$ to be dump
S80: 4.4FD 96 Specsorry i am a new honda owner,newbie,do correct me if i am wrong, from the info i dig on wiki and honda tech, S80 gear box is from ITR from 96 while 98 and after, they using N3E gearbox.. both are 4.785 FD but i heard that N3E gearbox are with longer 4th and 5th ratio which improve the cruising... is it?:rolleyes:
i am new in honda,lolS80: 4.4FD 96 Spec
S80+N3E: 4.785FD 98 Spec
both specs are using the S80 gearbox...98spec has the addition of the N3E which i assume means the 4.7FD
Seriously bro, even with 4.4, I feel there's a need for a 6th gear especially on the highway. Lol... When the time comes, I'll play with my GB since the synchro is already giving problems. I think it's better to build with aftermarket ratios and LSD rather then getting another 4.4 FD with LSD GB. I know it's gonna cost more but what say you?another way of putting wat ur mechanic means is that its as if u dont have enough gears... even when ur at 5th ull feel that u wanna upshift to another gear....
im sure at times when ur on fifth u feel as if ur on 3rd or 4th? itll be worse with 4.7... too close for 2.0
