Default Nismo LSD, 3.9FD ... please help, thx u~

Sorry for the newb question...

I finally want to touch the drivetrain parts... I have 03' enthusiast model and I am very interested in getting LSD and 20 central 3.9 FD for my babe. Please help me clarify few questions, thx you.

Since I got the Z long long times ago (03'), I cant remember how is Touring model differnt from Enthusiast?? I wonder wut does "VDC" do, and Does Enthusiast have VLSD on it??

I am not sure if it's a poor traction design for earlier Z's .... or possible damage to my suspentions... I have spined out my Z for couple times at very low speed (25mph) w/ Tein Flex and Toyo tire

I read these threads abt LSD, so I think maybe I dun hab a factory LSD or maybe i should just get a better one....

So, now... questions are... Which one should i get?? Nismo or Cusco.. Do I need to buy anything else in order to install the Nismo LSD??

I also heard a lot of good things abt 3.9FD... for you ppl who already got one... how do you like this mod. Would you guys please tell me What else I need to get the Central 20 3.9 FD installed .... Wut's the money and installation fee i am looking at ??

If possible... would you recommand me some good shops for installing these in S.CA ( i live in O.C) .....

Thank you for ur precious info....

Honestly, I'd take whatever money you planned to add to throw at the car and go attend a driving course.

All models except the base have the VLSD - your car has it

For your car, your best bet would be the Cusco or Carbonetics. The NISMO is not the best overall choice as its louder and rougher to engage than the others, and it comes with parts you don't need (its designed to bolt into the base).
