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.

I don't see what you are saying... I wasn't calling BS on anyone :p Please explain more? Are you saying Kaaz 1.5 is good or bad?

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.

The Torsen is way more linear than the S4 making it an excellent choice for any grip driving with turns.
