I am pulling my transmission to replace my clutch and change some gears. I currently run a JDM GSR with a fully built head. Much other then that, the engine is stock.
I will be running boost eventually so I am building this with high power production in mind. I would like your thoughts on the kind of clutch that should be used for the application. I was thinking in the 400hp range. It will and is a daily driver. I was thinking of a Clutch Masters Twin Disc, the Exedy Twin Disc, or possibly an Action Clutch (because I have read many boosted Honda's really like them). No cermanics.
Also as for gearing. I am debating the issue of getting the JDM Type R final drive of 4.785 as opposed to my current 4.40 and changing some of the gears, such as:
changing 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears to the Type R gearing and use and LS 5th gear for crusing. But then I am concerned about shifting from 4th to 5th and not having the power to pull on a car. I know I will not be going that fast that often and it would be great for gas milage but I would like the ability to continue to pull. Suggestions?
