LSD - VISCOUS or CLUTCH TYPE
Cusco is top notch stuff. Most differentials in Japan are made by only one of two companies. ATS and Kaaz. ATS has carbon LSD's which I love. All the advantages of a nice aggressive 1.5 way clutch type setup yet wonderfully smooth and chatter free. Also they handle much more heat which is important on extended track sessions (not that I will be tracking my Toyota anytime soon, it is just for street but I installed one just to test). ATS will be releasing a carbon unit at the end of summer from what I understand. For some reason the Z33 isn't high priority. Wierd. Anyway, the new Kaaz is 24 plate and is quite good and nicely priced. For most that is more than enough.

I used to have a 03 350Z Touring and now I got a new 04 Nismo 350Z Base because I was having transmission problems with my 03 which was an auto believe it or not. My 04 is a 6spd but she doesn't seem to grab right on launches and when I try to chirp second it feels like only one tire is really getting on the torque. From what the dealership tells me, the base Z doesn't have LSD but uses some sort of heat to do the job. I have no idea what they were talking about. But was wondering if I could add the LSD to my Z for better traction and power output.

I just wanted to see if you had, or are working on, a differential for the Nissan 350Z?
