Ok guys, I need some advice here. My 2G build will be completed fairly soon but I need to figure out the rest of the driveline.
I have a 97 GSX and just swapped all of the gears and forks and what not with all EVO 3 parts. I also have the DSS larger and stronger aluminum driveshaft and we are thinking the car should end up roughly somewhere between 550 and 650hp to the wheels.
What would be the best twin plate clutch to get? I was looking at a Quarter Masters twin plate that also comes with a little lighter flywheel in the kit, but I'm not 100% sure about it because this car is going to be my daily or most days driver and I don't want the tranny to make a ton of noise or have crappy drivability in stop and go traffic. I think with the higher hp though, the twin disc will be better than a single.
Any suggestions on a really good twin disc thats still drivable and not super noisy and annoying?!
Then what about the t-case and rear diff, I know stock isn't gonna hold forever with higher hp. I'm not 100% sure if I have a 4 bolt rear diff or not and unfortunately I don't have access to the shop for a few days, but even if I do have a 4 bolt, what is a good upgrade for both the rear diff and the t-case?
Last question, the carrier bearing, leave it stock or is there a better one? I tried doing a little online research on the carrier bearing but couldn't seem to find much info at all on that. Getting these last parts of the driveline figured out is the last hurdle, once I can get this figured out then it's just a matter of putting everything back together and my newest DSM will be alive!! Any help with this is greatly appreciated!
