[Mux213]

Mine is stock, wanne go TRD 2 way some day...

[joaotcgt]

if u can please post what u think of the LSD u have (comparisons are appreciated) and if ur thinking on getting one... wich one and WHY? Thanks

For example, mux123, why TRD and not KAAZ ort any other? any special reason?

[NoHachi]

I don't think that many people have tried the various LSD's back to back. Im also unsure whether there are people skilled enough to actually notice the difference, I know that I probably couldn't.
Maybe that our Portugese friends can comment on the difference between the stock LSD (rebuilt with the no.6 shims) and KAAZ?

joa,

Simple reason, new I haven't found a cheaper option yet. Importing kaaz or cusco so far goes over 1000 euro's while a TRD I can get for 800 euros

But really no more reasons then that. Pure cost

Then again, if before the time is right I find a good second hand Kaaz or Cusco, might aswell drop that in. For my sort of driving it really doesn't matter to much. Its not like I am going to do competition driving with my hachi

2-way TRD here too.

I've driven a hachi with standard LSD whilst hunting down mine - but to be honest I never gave it the sort of stick to feel it working.

Would be interested to try a KAZ or CUSCO diffed car as the lockup is said to be more aggressive.

Mine is stock also. It is rebiulded, but i don't think my mechanics were really into the job Final result: 100% wheel lock! ...which is not that bad having in mind the car's purpose :wink:
Excluding all the clicking and noises, some people pay for this effect! heh
Anyway, as soon as i have a chance, I think I'll replace it with a 2-way diff. The current condition is very risky.

Kaaz can be had for around 700-800 Euro's. Cusco around 1.000 Euro's. They are not that expensive, except if you buy it from the Cusco dealer in the UK.
