Those of you that use the OBX LSD please reply to the questions as follows:

1. Are you satisfied with the performance?

2. If you experienced problems with your OBX LSD, was OBX or the seller willing to honor the warranty of the product and replace or repair the product?

3. If you were in the market for another LSD would you purchase the OBX LSD or purchase another brand LSD such as Quaife?

Your sincere response is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

he wants to be "in" the thread so he can see what people say

 

Thanks for the clarification.

 

i had one in my accord, i loved it for the time i had it

 

1. Are you satisfied with the performance?

-So far yes. However, I haven't thrown any real abuse at it yet. Under normal driving conditions it acts like a normal diff.

2. If you experienced problems with your OBX LSD, was OBX or the seller willing to honor the warranty of the product and replace or repair the product?

-No problems yet.

3. If you were in the market for another LSD would you purchase the OBX LSD or purchase another brand LSD such as Quaife?

-I have owned a quaife before purchasing the obx. I'd buy another obx. I can't justify spending the money on a quaife, now that there is a cost effective alternative. If I were building a trailer queen the stock diff would be welded.

1. Hell yes, cut .15 average off of my 60'.
2. No problems, has at leas 8,000 miles on it already
3. I would go with obx again.

 

i just installed one in a d16 tranny thats going on my 400+whp d16 build.. no experience with it yet but its a nice piece.

btw, this is where i got mine for only $350

1. Yes the open diff is a major weak point in regards to performance and durability in a Honda.
2. No problems I did go over to double check assembly IE- verything tight etc and it was all good
3. Yes I would buy another as I will never spend $1000 on a diff.

 

1: Absolutely

2: N/A

3: Yes

platinum.

 

1) kinda, it doesnt work as smoothly/efficiently as id hoped in turns.

2) no

3) yes

What is the horsepower?

 

I have it in my ls tranny. Works great. No problems for almost two years now.

 

Mine is fine too (over a year now) except for when I have to remove the passenger side axle!

That would be sick if it cut .15 off of my 60' when I install my OBX. Somehow I doubt it though because I already cut a 1.69 on open diff. I just can't see my car doing 1.54.

i didnt know that either, thanks!!

 

i would go with the obx lsd all way that is only product from obx i would buy that thing work just like a quaife but for half the price. i have one in my daily 600+whp civic i drive it about 10,000 miles last year. no problem and i beat on my car all the time every block i am on the 2step launching it at 8500rpm.

 

The one I installed in my buddys tranny has been holding up great. 11 second passes and no problem yet.

However, the passenger side axle had to be destroyed and I had to completely diassemble the unit to chamfer the axle splines. I really hope they changed it.

I give it a

 

1. Are you satisfied with the performance?
YES i launch hard and make over 500whp.
2. If you experienced problems with your OBX LSD, was OBX or the seller willing to honor the warranty of the product and replace or repair the product?
just the pass. axle issue
3. If you were in the market for another LSD would you purchase the OBX LSD or purchase another brand LSD such as Quaife?
i think i would go with a quaife and use the obx as a back up.

 

my obx lsd i just got was chamfered on both sides so they fixed the axle issue.

 

so the only problems is getting the axles out tight fit? and are all the new obx chamferred

 

I sell quite bit of the obx lsd the only issues was the first models were not beveled and axles were getting stuck.

the new lsd9000 for b16a/ls is now bevled both sides easy in an out

 

What about diff. for the d-series. Is it "fixed"?

 

1. Love the performance, hard launches all the time on ~300whp no issues at ALL. Little breakin noise in the beginning but it goes away and now its GREAT!

2. No issues ATALL, used the same diff in 2 consecutive builds.

3. Would def buy again, actually i may buy a spare just to have on backup cause they is so damn cheap!!

+ from me

Has the problem been corrected for the H22 OBX LSD? If corrected, what is the part number?
