Daveyboy11 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I don't know if this is in the right section but anyway, I found out my car doesn't have an LSD which is a bummer but my question is are they easy to come by and how much do they go for second hand? I've been told the diff I have can make the car unpredictable which worries me a bit seeing as I am going to the Nurburgring in May...

StevoD Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 whos told you an open diff can be unpredictable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveyboy11 Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 Yes it's an import, is that why it has an open diff? @ StevoD - it was a local mechanic that told me that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chubby Ninja Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 not so much unpredictable but just less traction when cornering. ends up one wheel spinning. does the mechanic drive a corsa or astra or something similar by any chance?

Daveyboy11 Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 Oh I see, so an LSD is not essential? He drives a BMW and drifts actually so I thought he'd know his stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chubby Ninja Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 its not essential but if you are drifting its alot better to have one as it only ends up spinning the one wheel meaning sh1t drifts . im not sure how much a standard GT viscous diff will cost you but if i was needing one id probably shell out a bit more and get a kaaz or qualiffe 1.5 way LSD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveyboy11 Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 Ah okay that makes sense lol thanks for the info! Well I will have a little search to see if I can get a second hand one as I doubt I'm going to be able to afford a new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
