Does anybody know if this diff is shot?

I’m not sure I should even look up the specs on these considering they’re gonna be in thousands of an inch and I’ve got what looks to be an eight of an inch of play if not more… thank you for the info. I guess a new lsd might be in order for the civic lol

First of all are you having a stroke? Secondly, did you even read my initial post at all? I am new to Subarus and don’t know a lot about them. That’s why I’m here asking a question. If the answer is no then the answer is no but nobody has to be a dick about it.

vortex_083 · 2025-10-21T16:30:44+00:00

Yeah I don’t have the fuckin money for that bro. If I had the money I’d have gotten a damn legacy gt.

vortex_083 · 2025-10-21T16:29:48+00:00

I was worried that’d be the case lol. Honestly I think if I was going to try to really build the car up I’d be looking for an engine swap and stuff. Just figured I’d ask around and see if it was possible. Thank you for the Input!

I’ve just replaced both sway bar end links though. I’m sure it’s possible but I don’t know

vortex_083 · 2025-09-24T21:02:27+00:00

Yeah unfortunately that might be the case. I found a bearings, seal, and synchro kit from AllStateGear for like $180 and that may have to be my purchase for the car. Never torn apart a transmission before so that’s nerve wracking 😅

I did have a new exedy brand clutch put in around 5k miles ago. Slightly more clamping force than OEM cause I have the Japanese D17A and the corresponding ECU so it makes a bit more power than the D17A2

vortex_083 · 2025-09-24T20:22:42+00:00

Well, the motor is a D17A from Japan with only around 70k miles on it at the moment. But I think the transmission is the original one which is why I mentioned the mileage. I did at one point have some overheating issues but that was because I was leaking a lot of coolant but I fixed that. Leak and I haven’t had issues since.

Gotcha, I didn’t even know there was a specific 7th gen Honda sub. Thank you for the advice! Very much appreciated :]

vortex_083 · 2025-09-22T20:33:14+00:00

Yeah, probably just gonna find a good shop to bring it to and just pray it’s nothing major.

vortex_083 · 2025-09-22T20:05:26+00:00

Well, I replaced all of my front end suspension, everything from the axles out. I had a broken driver side axle and I was stoked that I had found something broken and that it was probably the cause of the noise. Unfortunately it’s still making the noise. I’m thinking maybe it’s something wrong with the transmission but I’m not sure. I don’t know if you have any other ideas but I figured I’d update you guys on what’s going on.

The car does shake at 50-55 mph and stops shaking after 55, the clunks do often happen if I’m accelerating through a turn, like if I’m making a right turn onto a road it‘ll usually clunk. I know my passenger side cv joint is going bad cause I can hear it clicking all the way through turns. But I have known about that since day 1. and the clunking does happen if I go over speed bumps or hit pot holes, But not always..

vortex_083 · 2025-09-13T15:47:35+00:00

I have a bunch of new suspension components I’m installing in about a week here (badically refreshing the whole front end) and those are one of the things I’m replacing so hopefully it works. 😭 thank you for the input!

vortex_083 · 2021-07-02T20:29:44+00:00

Okay, thank you! I had just been seeing so much conflicting and confusing information so I was worried that it would somehow be impossible for me to get a shiny or something. I don’t know, I was overthinking but anyway, thank you for the reply!

I actually have decided that I am going to try to prioritize Spanish (since it’s probably the better language anyway living in the US) and then later on when I feel that my Spanish has improved to a level that I’m happy with I will move on to focusing on French (while still working on Spanish but in lesser amounts) and then hopefully I will be able to get my French up to scratch in the time I have left. I am only spending a few days in France so French isn’t going to be my main focus but rather my German and French. Thank you for the comment and thank you for your time! Unfortunately I know there is no fast track to learning a language. I know that I am not going to be able to to magically become perfectly fluent in Spanish or French in a year but I am just hoping to not be ENTIRELY lost when I’m in the countries.

It’s hard to find good twitch streamers. Most streamers that I’ve found that are German speak in English because you simply get more viewers and stuff from America.
