For the cost of over $1000+shipping+installation...maybe totals $1,500+ --> is it worth getting it ?? other than to better your acceleration/cornering, what difference does it make/give?? a whole lotta?? 1/4 time improvements?? would you get it?? I mean im not a daily racer...more like for daily driving and loves performance. (my setup is 3-set NST, fidanza flywheel, clutchmasters FX400(6 puck), DEI exhaust heat wrap, custom 3" downpipe-back piping(catless), HKS HiPower exhaust).

Quaife(expensive) -OR- Phantom Grip(cheap)??? Yes i did a research on these, but it just confused me more...as people are biased on the parts. Some say one is better, but really, its because they have it...so they say its better. Well whats your experience/opinion??

 

dude you might get more answers in drive train/power forums. also i have a phantom grip and that $hit works.but it will hurt the spider gears dont belive phantom grip. this is my 3rd phantom grip ive had them in my gsr and si and both cars i had the same problem with the spider gears but after 4 years of CRAZY abuse and second b series transmision are garbage(weak) so maybe i might luck out with the scion 5 years)

 

quaife. Improves 60'. Instead of 90% power going to the driver's side wheel, you'll get closer to 50/50 between the 2, also improving response coming out of an apex with an evener power distribution

 

Who sells the LSD?....do it yourself? Possibly dealereship install?(if they are cool?)

 

I know of one guy on here. I'm getting one put on in the middle of August with my full tranny work

 

I would kill for one...no joke

 

ZPI sells the LSD. and they can install it

 

The day that Quaife recieved their first shipment of LSD's from Great Britain I had it Overnighted to me and installed the next day. at that point I also replaced the flywheel and Clutch. there is a great deal of difference but i would say this is not one you will truly be able to see on traditional street situations....
I love it the Power transfer is very solid..

just 2 rather large clouds of smoke and some very very bald tires

 

this is what ive search and found so far on the net, with the...well i wouldnt say the cheapest but least price LSD...

I would purchase it from Dezod.com, here's a link:

Much better customer service and reliabilty.




I wouldn't have the dealership install it. Too pricey. Take it to a transmission shop and let them do it. Labor rate will def be lower than the dealers. Here's it's about $85 an hour and a job like this will probably pay 8-10 hours.

 

Got it installed in my spare trans. I'll tell you this car REALLLY needs it with as much torque as it has. Turbo guys should consider it a requirement. I should have it in the car hopefully this month sometime. Waiting for Exedy clutch for it.

 

Thanks. Yes we HAD the diff in stock, and now are sold out. Quaife said 3 months before more come in.

 

Koo Koo, i shud get one of these then

 

My buddy Ed (EddNog) tells me that 1lb of saved flywheel weight equals 20lb of body weight, or something close to that.

But I can tell you one thing for sure. That damn flywheel makes a huge difference in his car. He's N/A and I'd be afraid to race him with F/I.

That flywheel is easily my next upgrade.

 

Hey Paul have they said 3 months for sure on the lsd? I was going to order from you guys in a couple of weeks and get it put on in August. If they won't send it to you guys sooner than 3 months I've got Charles checking on getting one from me from a source that he has.

 

oh nooooo! every dealers ran out of LSD?!! the guys where i supposed to buy the LSD called me and said that they ran out. and now Dezod ran out too. hmm, ZPI??

 

Yeah we are Quaife direct, and they said 3 months before anyone sees any more.......

 

Well I guess I'll see if Charles' source has 1 in stock, if not I'll buy it from you guys and wait it out.

 

Good Luck.
