different ratios

the Accord Euro gearbox is lazier.

Its shit compared to the dc5r box. Avoid it at all costs if you can.

[D16]

wat happens if im changing the internals and adding lsd? is the casing of the euro box that different to the dc5

[Vvvtec]

Yeah different mount points and the case uses a electrical speed sensor not mechanical like the dc5 box.

[D16]

is it harder to swap compare to the dc5

[Vvvtec]

Not necessarily. as long as you have the correct mount bracket from hasport it's no different from using a Dc5 case. The VSS will require a little bit of playing around to get working though.

thanks for the help, just collecting info for my build next year

K24 box has almost identical spread of ratios (2nd to 6th) as DC5R box, except all ratios are taller. Good for cruising with tall gearing, or put in a low ratio FD (5.3 or better) for cheap option for CR box (guarantee nobody could even pick the difference in ratios by driving, apart from the said FD ratio)

I think there were several versions of the K24 box though. later ones might have had wider gear spacing.
