I was waiting for this.

OP - Please don't drift on the street. As much as I like a part out thread I hate the rising insurance rates.

lsd and good diff fluid is all you need (besides the knowledge of how to change a diff). Go with a 1.5 it's not as hard on decel.

Good lord. Drift on the street? Buddy, take it to the track so you don't kill somebody.

OEM VLSD or 1.5way are good choices.

But seriously, don't drift on the street. It's just not safe.

What else you need depends on the diff you get

As for 1.5 vs 2 way, the most delicate way I can put it is this - if you don't know which you need, it's likely you would never detect the difference between them in the first place. Not meant as an insult, so don't take it that way. A 1.5 way as mentioned, is without question the best balance between street and track civility and safety. 2 ways are really best suited for full on drift use only. Are there guys that use a 2 way on the street? Sure - but its less than ideal.

Come On Guys He Got the idea the first time --- Op everyone plays on the street at least a little just dont brag about it or ask about a setup that could improve it --- You put your life at risk doing that (and the Z) thats your choice but the innocent people that get in the way didnt get to make a that choice soo keep that in mind and take it to the track and always wear your flame suit :-P
