Default LSD for Honda civic ex 1999? Quality or?

Hey guys i'm looking for buy an LSD for my whip and im wondering which is the best to buy (currently driving a 1999 civic ex coupe) and from who, Ive heard "Quaife" is a great company that makes great LSD's but the price is about 900$, and im also looking at a LSD from OBX for about 400$, What im asking is, Which is better to buy, obviously the Quaife LSD is superior to the OBX but is it worth the extra 500$? Just wanting some opinions or people who have tryed both or either

Thanks Guys!

Hope this is in the right area

I say no on the OBX...There are a handful of people that have had good luck and the rest..well nothing but problems. Majority of them are defective from the factory. Center washers are in the wrong order, case bolts loose and stripped, and the bearing spigots are off creating a major differential bearing issue.

M-Factory has a great LSD and is comparable to a Quaife. Quaife has come down in price from a few years ago. I have personally driven vehicles with both and not just built transmissions with them for X amount of customers and went off of their feedback. Its important to have first hand experience! I can honestly say they both perform well and was pleased with both of them. I carry both the M-Factory and the Quaife as well as a Wavetrac which is also a great unit and held up well at the track! So look into those as well! I will PM you some prices
