and I think RRE also sells them.
LSD will still break if launched wrong. look up 1gs and 2g blowing welded center diffs and rear diffs on dumped launches. gotta slip it esp at the track where it has so much more grip than the street.
Yes and no. With a true helical gear LSD like the Quaife, if you dump it, you wont break the diff itself, if the shock is too great, it will end up cracking the bell housing, case or breaking the input shaft or wrecking the shaft bearing. Good advice though, you always wanna slip it. So in short, you may not break the diff if you dump it, but you will break something else, so dont dump it.
The 3g LSD's are the same for V6 and I4. I know this for a fact because I have held them next to each other, plus the quaife in Roman's car was formerly in FrankMB's car which was a V6 which is now Craig's car (Fatal1).
OBX Also makes a 3g one, I think you have to special order it, I think for the cost of the OBX unit and the potential consequences of it going bad, its worth it to invest in a good LSD like quaife or wavetrac. When the LSD goes bad, it destroys the tranny, you need to replace the whole tranny if it blows up. The 2g eclipse FWD and 3g Eclipse diff are the same, except they spin the opposite way. For example, if you found a Kaaz LSD for a 2g GST, you could open it up, reverse the clutch packs, put it back together and it will work in a 3g. You can only do it with Kaaz because its a clutch pack type, with a Wavetrac or Quaife you cant because of the gears.
so here we go again!! lol i will be hitting the track on sat and i wont be doing any 3k launches lol!
You better run a 14.9!. 4K launch with a little slip? dont do a pre stage burnout they dont help at all lol
so i just got back from the track and i ran a 15.2 with no issues besides traction.only got 2 runs before the rain hit
Thats pretty good. I cant wait till im hitting up the strips
