thanks, you've given me some good info already.
i'll contect 350evo about it.

 

no problem good luck with your lsd choice! im sure you'll make the right choice

 

i just got my Cusco RS in the mail yesterday. its a nice 25 pound paper weight.
looks purdy, and smells nice hehe.

i'll try to take some picts of it, to see if there is the OS giken stamp on it... (psst. thanks again adam!! awesome unit..)

 

what setting are you going to use for the lsd?

 

probably 60% w/ 1.5way...... i dont want to be all crazy like Daytona and convert to 2.0 with 80%

 

are you going to SB with us cheston, you can drive mine

 

I decided to go with cusco rs also, what extra parts did you end up having to buy? Does the touring model require extra parts?

 

yes, the touring model needs some stuff, i have a touring model as well. but it is not like the base model where that needs new stub axles, so thats a major relief. here is what you need:
2 Oil Seals: (38342-P9010)
2 Differential Bearings: (38440-0C000)

total should be around like $80-90 from performance nissan when i purchased mine.

you could spring for a new differential cover that keeps the fluid cool, an extra $90 ish. the reason i did was because i already had the pumpkin out of the car, thats the only way to install it, and didnt want any chance of my fluid boiling.

 

Thanks daytona, I might just get it installed at performance if the price is right. Just got the diff cooler cover, now just waiting for the pumpkin. I'll send a message to jason or tony when the cusco comes in.

thanks again!

 

daytona and i both got ours installed at street image

 

How much was the install at Street Image? Is it an all day job? I might check around locally too to see how much Signal Auto charges since they are closest to me.

 

...

 

i havent heard good things about signal auto, from what i understand there is one or two good mechanics and the rest are crap.

 

Thanks for the updates, 300 isn't that bad. Might look into going there instead. Haven't been to signal in a long time, so really wasn't sure, but they did have a few good mechanics a few years ago.

 

now i have a delema.. I decided on the cusco rs but what setting would be for me. I drive the car everyday, do a 3-4 autocross events and one drift a month. I wonder if the 1.5 with 80% lockup would be the sweet spot. Do any of you guys autocross the 2way?

 

1/5 way with 60% would be the ideal in my book - that's what I run

the 2 way and ABS don't get along very well - you are always fighting the car

 

abs doesnt get in the way really much without VDC

 

I did not like it much at all at 2 way (I have no VDC) but at 1.5 its one of the best mods I have done

 

bonus... thanks for the impressions. adam i might be ordering the cusco soon, just have to figureout if i'm going to buy the 3.9's as well.

 

Adam, So 1.5 way does not affect the ABS?
