It depends on what you're doing with it.

Does Cusco make one for us? (EP3 or RSX)

[Mighty_Mouse]

Defintely get a mechanical one (DC5R, Quaife, etc.).

Get the Quaife unit if you can afford it, or since you mostly drive on the street, just stick the the DC5R LSD which is a decent unit. The Quaife is a better unit however. It's a lot beefier, stronger, will take a lot of abuse and it reacts quicker.

laffin out lowd, but i guess i should've seen that.

... limited slip diferentials... :p

[shimmy_yaz]

sorry I had to do it just couldn't seem to pass it up:D

[SFPracing]

Quaife is the best diff. for a street car. Cusco's and Kaaz are very aggressive. 1.5 and 2 ways don't work for street use. Type R will work decent till ya boost it. :)

[Mr.TecH7]

i'm not going with turbo, strikly NA. but i was ready to get Spoon, what makes mech type better when clutch type is more $$

It took me till Mr.TecH7 post to get what you said. I guess I am just way to much of a car nut.

[2k2SiAutoXer]

I am also thinking about going LSD. when I get my turbo I feel that I just wont be able to get any traction. I will need one that will be able to handle boos and will be good for autocross and street use. Any suggestions?

i'm findin out about ATS Carbon today, i'll see if it fits needs... will get back to all.

How loud are these LSDs? I don't know if you guys will mind but from what I hear from hachi guys, the Kaaz and Cusco ones are loud.

[SFPracing]

Yea I've heard that too. My P72 Quaife in my car is quiet. At least I think it is. My car is to damn loud, I can't hear myself think! :mad:

Loud, like exhaust sound?

[Mugen Power]

I haven't heard one myself but from what I hear from people who have them is that it's something like grinding/moaning/crunching... Basically, you HEAR it working. If you don't mind hearing those noises that make your car sound like it's gonna fall apart, go for it. :D

I dunno, maybe it's not that bad but some people don't like it for everyday use.

I'd go with Quaife for no other reason than the lifetime no-questions-asked warranty.
