Default Getting a New Z, LSD ?'s

Hello everyone! I totalled my beloved 06 Redline almost a year ago, so I've been out of the game for a little bit. However, I think I'm gonna get another Z in the next few weeks, but I have a couple questions. My 06 was pretty modded up and I had purchased a new final drive and a Cusco RS 1.5 LSD that I had never installed. But I was wondering, my old Z was a base model, would it be better to get an Enthusiast with the stock VLSD? I mean would that make putting in my new parts a lot easier since it will already have the larger pumpkin?

as far as i know, if you have the factory vlsd, you have to get the axles from the base model to make it work with aftermarket LSD's.

Wrong

The only aftermarket LSD that needs the base axles is the Quaif

The Cusco LSD would need the axles out of a factory VLSD car. So getting the Enthusiasts would save you the hassles of trying to get new axles.

Do you think it would make the install easier?

install wont make a difference.

But its easier to find parts for. rather then getting a base and trying to find the axles out of a vlsd equiped car.
