I agree, even the slightly tired LSD I put in my car from a junkyard GSL made a big difference. Of course one season of Solo II pretty much wore it out, so now I need to rebuild it. :P

Personally i went w/ the 1.5 lock up. It really helped out my high speed stability. Its worth every penny. I burned through stock lsd's in a couple months. I've had the kaaz for 1.5 yrs with out any problems, never hesitates to lock up.

At worse case by a stock lsd, i have 3 stock ones just collecting dust as a back up.

weldings illegle
the jy's are askin to much for a old lsd from a gsl around here each one wants at least 300big ones
so i see welding a qwick fix since i havnt found one locally
actually if i drop the clutch at a green light i allways go sideways with a open diff usally turning aswell and thats 1st and second so a lsd would be killer but only for a track it may be a lil problem in traffic "i have a lead foot from my old car "
do the lsd tend to jolt when going very slow?

I did the LSD swap and i liked it a lot more... Havent try it in auto-x yet, when i had the open diff for auto-x... the inner wheel gains power and make the car wants to weave around.

I just did an AutoX with an open diff. Couln't keep the inside rear tire from spinning in the corners. No way to put any power down until I straightened up coming out of the corners. I may be able to fix some of that with heavier swaybars, but lsd is what I really need...
