I'm planning to do track weekends and the aftermarket lsd's like kaaz, cusco, and quaife perform better than the oem lsd. Also, since this car will still see street time, I wanted the gearing in the 02-04 rsx-s tranny. The gears in the type-r tranny are too short. The 02-04 rsx-s has the longest final drive of any of the k-series trannies at 4.389FD. Even with that long FD, I'm still going to be turning about 4k rpms at highway speeds.
