TRD/Qualife FTW! I should be dropping mine in soon, sitting in my closet does no good...lol. Guys should have jumped on that package deal that was in the For Sale section a while back.

$930 shipped for Brand new TRD clutch and LSD.

.....Now I have a TRD clutch that I don't need, and needs to be sold...

All I have to say out of experiance is go with the TRD LSD. I got an OBX one trying to cut corners and when I got it and went to put it in it didn't fit at all, not even close. So I thought it was just the wrong part #. I called OBX and asked them if it was the right part and they said yes. Then after all the crap I called them again and they told me to ship it back for a refund, so I did and I never got my money back and they didn't answer any of my calls. So out $400 bucks. So I just ended up getting the TRD LSD and have had 0 issues from it and it works like a champ! All in all I will say the age long saying you get what you pay for!

that guy from PR, gt35r or something

he was running phantom grip with like 500+ HP, he said it was starting to loose its "lsd" effect with such high numbers, but if it could handle such high HP without grenading the tranny, i say its worth a shot!

There is another boosted tC in miami who runs the phantom grip and said he had no problems with it. And he supposedly was making 300+ then, and that was like 2 years ago.
