In order not to ressurect an old thread I opted to start a new one. How many pople would be intrested in doing a group buy for the Phantom Grip LSD? If so post here and I can see about negotiating with them.

It depends on how many you get together.
retail =$349.95

5 units would be $329.00
10 units would be $309.00
20 units would be $289.00

OK maybe im stupid for asking this question, everybody keeps on mentioning LSD. WTF is it?? What does it do?? Could you tell me?

 

^^^^ YEAH I WANNA KNOW TOO

 

limited slip differential...only allows so much spin before it cuts it off... good for high horsepower and gaining traction-

 

http://auto.howstuffworks.com/differential.htm

Lots of information on differentials, including the differences between open differentials and various limited slip diffs and lockers.

 

OHHHH!!!! How much is it for an aftermarket?

 

Pretty much it comes down to this, when a car wturns the inside wheel travel a shorter distance than the outside travels. (think small circle, inside tire. Large circle outer tire). Well they both trvel in the same amount of time but 2 different distances. In order to do this, the tires travel at different speeds. If it was alocked hub and the tires DIDNT travel at different speeds, then the inside tire would constantly spin when making turns. This is why we dave differentials. It allows the tires to spin at the needed rates .

With a LSD there is a clutch system (dont know the name of it) that determines how much pressure needs to be exerted in order to take away or give power to a certain wheel to make it not slip. With springs it determines how much torque to give to each wheel to keep it from spinning but not standing still. (from the wheels that slip to the wheels that grip, rememeber the commercial?) So in straight line performance, initial torque will be equal, as one tire shows its going to slip, it transfers torque to the opposing tire, and evens out the available torque from the wheels that slip, giving to the wheels that grip. (one tire on ice, one on not, your car wont sit there and send all the torque to the easy tire, on ice. It will send the torque to the harder to spin tire, dry pavement.

Yeah that probably makes no sense. Please tell me where i went wrong and if its correct.....Im done....

 

I sent them an email to see how many people would need what the price would be.

 

i would be down after a price is known.

 

im probably guessing 400ish...maybe i am totally off

 

from the site it lists $349 so im hopin we can get a group buy of $200/$250.

 

how is the install....what would a place charge???

 

holy cow!!! if its that price i am so down!!! i really want LSD i would be so grateful if they made it .....

Ill start the list in the first post...but the LSD is made already just trying to get a better price.

 

It's a pain to install, about an 8-9 out of 10 on the scale IMHO.

It's a decent "LSD", but I'd like the quaife a lot more... that's the real setup, but it comes with the real LSD pricetag as well.

 

ill take a fake one at a fake price if it makes both wheels spin at the same speed in a straight line plus im a cheap mexican i meen look at my mods

 

WERD!!! im a cheap mexican too..or as my friends call a cheap lazy s*** HAHA

 

^ might want to edit out the word s*** but i get that to lol

 

does any have this one yet??
and What would a shop charge to install....that could be real deal make or breaker!!!
