I read they only lock up 30%...all I want is able to do a burnout without embarrassment at track and able to put it sideways when I get the rare need...people say they end up becoming an open diff...like I said I have experience...old man z's seem to be holding up in his vids

My stock LSD ran 10@138 all day and night...I dont know the % of lock up to be exact but like I said, the stock one will be just fine for you. If you want to get a Nismo that would work even better, but klunks when you turn.

I ran 10.0@138 on stock Ebay refurbished axles...I was making over 700hp with 1.50 60fts. I broke the Driveshaft shop 1000hp axles clean in half at 550hp and they refused to warranty them..(customer service is non existent in the import world but that is another topic.)
The key is stop the WHEEL HOP..If you get wheel hop your gonna break them in 2 or 3 passes.. simple as that.. I used all solid rear bushings with full slicks and never broke another axle, and was running refurbished stock ones...

Why? Ill just get banned for telling the truth about companies and their shenanigans ...Especially if they are a sponsor. They told be cause the axles were over a year old they wouldn't warranty them,but I purchased them and they sat in my storage until the car was done and they were on the car a few weeks before they broke.

This is kind of an old thread now but for once I feel like I can be useful! I was looking at lsd's because I want to still the power I make. If you look at the insane drag cars the big shops have made (injected performance) their record breaking drag cars use the stock vlsd. With huge 4 digit whp numbers and fast 60'. I decided to skip it personally. At least till I grenade mine all over the street.

Yeah but they never drive allot of miles on the cars only when racing... The vlsd is not rebuildable and has a short life and only locks up 30 percent...I could buy a pumpkin swap it and it one tire peel... I'd rather spend the money once and be done and get the quaife that is rebuildable and locks like it should
