LSD is shot need a rebuild kit
OMG THIS IS A BIG HELP!!! but now i need to find the cash to buy the plates. i am going to start some competition drifting and time attacks in my area after the winter and a tighter LSD will work wonders for me( fully locked anyone? lol) if anyone is going to fully rebuild their LSD i would urge that you fully devote a thread to this and post tons of pics of the process so that we can do them ourselves without being charged out the @$$ for labor from a shop.

I can't check from work, but sometimes www.rockauto.com will surprise you with what they have on hand.
This past weekend my 85 GSL LSD started slipping under power at an autocross. When exiting a turn the car would roast the inside V710. I came home and found this thread. I took the diff apart and followed "OLD RX7's" directions. I ended up cutting .019 off of the Left diff housing.
I got the car back together today, the LSD definitely works now, maybe a little too good. I'm going to have to drive it a little more to let the clutches re-seat but man does it lock. Driving very slow in a tight circle you can hear the inside tire grab and then start turning again, not much but a little, as soon as I apply power it locks and it will spin both tires
We'll have to see...
Thanks for the thread, it was very helpfull.
