no, i don't have the expertise to take apart a transmission, nor really the equipment and facilities to even drop a transmission...

I got it from Import Specialists... http://www.import-specialists.com

Dealt w/ Nick Thomas, awesome person to communicate with.... very smooth and expedient transaction...

Im assuming u like it?
well, i really haven't had the chance to really test it out do to icy roads and the fact i need to break-in my clutch.... but i did pull a few hard 180s in a parking lot tonight (spots of ice on the pavement too) and i could really feel the torque transfer.... fun stuff...

Try this: http://www.morepowerracing.com
Free shipping and no tax since you don't live in WA. Should be $795 total. Is that the best so far? I was going to order from them but in my case, tax would apply so I was looking for a cheaper place...

I just thought of a great idea. I sent them an e-mail asking if they would give a group buy price if several people purchased an LSD from them. If they do, that means we can get an even better price than $795 shipped. What do you guys think?

fusion x just changed the groupbuy, guess my comments helped..hehe
its now $790 shipped if you just wanna buy it.. or $780 shipped with 10 buyers.
but they are charging %3 paypal fee. hmm so it really comes out $813 shipped but then again you can just send money order. but to go throuhg that hassle just get it from morepowerracing.com

Sucks for me though...I can just pick it up here in WA for cheaper....oh well. He never even responded so I assume he's not willing to do it. I guess I can't complain after all it's one of the best prices around...

lets check other places and see if they can give us a group buy for cheaper. No Limit Enterprises offered me 775 for the LSD, but I live in NY, so I would have to pay tax. that would be kinda expensive for me 8% plus 1% paypal plus shipping. it came out to about $864 shipped.

I'd go for a Quaife group deal, but not for a month or two (or three).

just remember that there is only so low you can go on a Quaife as they cost about 740 at cost... Quaifes are not a high-profit item and are sold more as a service if you can get them for 800 shipped...

Thanks for making that point. I pay 715 ea plus freight which comes out to 733 my cost. If you are getting them that cheap, the seller is making little if ANY profit on it. They are well worth it. Trust me.
