What do you go with? Would the mazdatrix upgraded plates be better? I know mine isn't awsome but its better than open diffs. I've been considering upgrading to a better diff, but i have to get the susp. out the way first. I'm setting up for autox, drift and hopefully a little gymkhana.

I just out that the FC Turbo II clutch-type LSD is gone from Mazda inventory.
So if you're a Turbo II owner, you're screwed.
You can't buy a new one, and there are no parts - i.e. no replacement clutch discs for them...according to their inventory computers.
You could possibly find some tucked away in some backlot dealer parts room... :P

Personally, I prefer Cusco and OS Giken units as upgrades.

I have a second one that was said to have been rebuilt buy the guy I bought my TII from. If the current one seems to be going bad I'll switch them out. cusco and giken are up there. I may get the kaaz 1.5 eventally but it will be a while.

Look in the pinned topics, ICEMARK has graciously provided copies of the factory options and accessories lists. Read and learn.


Reted: I picked up those LSD's from a liquidation source, however the friction discs are still available fro the dealer.
