Drifters...question about LSD...

What is overall the best aftermarket LSD? I was looking into the Cusco RS but wasn't sure... any suggestions?

If you are going to get hardcore into drifting, you will want a 2way LSD...

also, you may want to get something where serviceable parts will be readly available ...

The clutch disc's in the lsd wear out over time, eventually will need to be replaced...

If you are doing serious drifting you just run a different LSD once yours wear out.

I think SCC did a review of LSD's for the G and the Z. I would do some searching online and see what you find. You can't go wrong with either Nismo and Cusco ones. They are both great. Also, unless you have tons of loot, the G and the Z aren't the greatest drift cars because the parts for the Z cars have always been so expensive.

Yeah, I'll do some more research... Parts for our cars are expensive but from what i've seen and done, doin it at a certain pace seems to keep it together. Not driftin it till it blows up...

2-way is the only way to go for drifting. Cusco RS is a good choice, Tomei also makes a 2-way, Carbonetics, Nismo. . . I'll be going with the Cusco in my car. . .

Glad to see more G's interested in getting sideways
