Sooooo anyways, the 1.5 Kaaz is a good catch then?
Not to spark any more fueding but, I know the Torsen is better for road racing because being alittle more predicatle and "does not wear out", but I am sure the clucth type is just as good, if you no what to expect, ie an experienced racer, since most full blown race cars use clutch type.

Here's the bottom line:
Bargain differentials are the FD torsen and the 87-88 clutch type. Choose the former if you're interested in road racing, the latter if drag is your thing. If your budget is a little larger, go for what you can afford. Cusco and Kaaz both make great differentials, you can't lose by going either route. As for 1.5 versus 2 way, a 1.5 diffis designed to have a stronger rate of lock-up during acceleration than when decelerating, whereas a 2 way differential keeps the same ratio either direction. The 1.5 is for you if you're new to road racing and want a little easier time of braking and other no-throttle situations. However, experienced racers will prefer a 2 way differential.
