I am doing research to see which LSD I want to get and what is the difference of 1.5 and 2.0 way LDS. How practical is it for driving also.

thanks

unless you are racing the car, don't even bother with the LSD. with the nismo lsd, the car locks very easily on slow speed turns.

I have the Nismo diff and have been fairly happy with the results. If you get one after initial beak in switch to Motul 90PA. Do that and you'll have a reliable and excellent diff that is streetable...

If you're worried about your diff being streetable either get a Torsen type (Quaife) or the ATS Carbon diff which has been reported to have the benefits of a clutch type but still behaves well on teh streets.

I have the ATS and it drives like stock at low speed , and is predictable under power n a corner.Thumbs up.
My second choice would be a Cusco RS.

I have the Nismo LSD, it is on the aggressive side, but most effective for traction and control.

i have the nismo lsd. i love it to death. makes noise when turnin slow corners but just take it out of gear or go into the turn a bit faster so it wont make that noise. dont worry u'll get used to it. it'll be fine. grips the floor alot harder then 1 wheel just spinning. works even better since i have turbo now.

cusco rs are noiseless if you set it to 60% lock

and is popular in japan for finishing jgtc season without rebuilding the diff

cusco rs @ 60% -- i absolutely love it -- once you get that feeling of it kicking in on a tight road course or an autocross course, you'll never want to to give it up

My vote is for the Carbonetics/TS Carbon Diff. They are noiseless, even at 100% lock. And you cant even feel the transition from lock to unlock. http://www.forgedperformance.com/sto...cat=270&page=1
These things completely transform the car.

Yeah, the Nismo locks very hard, very abruptly, and very loudly. Driving in the parking lot, I get all kinds of stares and grimmaces from people who think my car is broken. It's like, awe man, that nice new car is so clean but it's broken. If I roll into a corner, I can give it just enough throttle to where there is no torque on the diff (maintaining speed) and it will stay quiet throughout the turn. If you get a Nismo, you have to be willing to live with the noise it makes. Also, your ABS may turn on because the diff hits and releases so hard that it jostles your axles.
(note: I have not yet tried the Motul 90PA, but I hear it helps a lot)
If you have a base, you will need to change the stub axles or pull the ABS fuse out because the axles will have enough play to keep your ABS turned on and then your ABS will burn out. I know because that's what happened to me.

Does this price include everything need to be installed. Or are there additional parts needed?

Sharif@Forged

iTrader: (92)

If you have a factory VLSD car, no other parts are needed. However, it is a very good idea to get a set of bearings/races to press onto the new diff. The old bearings can be easily damaged upon removal, if you dont have the proper bearing extractor. The bearings are about $50 each.

I have a base so I don't have VLSD. Same concept applies? Or do I need other parts?

Quaife for you. Drops right in.

quaife, from what I've heard, have no noise and have great fitment.
