Is there any reason for changing the LSD on the ITR? Isn't the stock LSD good enough for track use? Or you need to upgrade it when you increase the power in your engine?

 

you uprgade it when you feel your skill as a driver surpasses what the stock LSD can provide, and that you'd feel a benefit to such a changing

I change it because i hit the vtech.

 

Ok Soup **** but, I'd like to hear a lil better explanation of the reason to change it.

 

So....

 

Or you break the stock one.

 

buhahhahahaha

put it this way, if you have to ask if you need to change the LSD, you dont need to change the LSD :-p

maybe you can take some LSD instead

That's what I figured!

LOL, best quote ever.

 

Well, last time while I was driving on the track.....I got a chance to follow another ITR whom has a same car like mine BESIDE the LSD. I got the stock lsd and he had Quife (sp?). Anyway, I found out that he had better/faster exit speed than me because he could step-on the gas sooner. This was especially noticeable in some tigh corner.
I believe some aftermarket LSD can give more traction ( or let you gain traction sooner) by provide better lock-up ability.

 

How are you sure this was a result of the LSD?

 

I can only say the driving line he got is much tigher than mine.....I know you can say "driver input/skill.....etc" Anyway, we kinda did that in purpose (driving head to toe to each others) so I can see what driving line I can get on my car compare to his.
Too bad I didn't get a chance to drive his car and mine back to back to get some first hand experience.

 

It's so hard to pinpoint the deciding factor when there are a lot of variables.

What makes you certain the difference is the LSD instead of other variables such as driver skill, car setup, tire setup, engine setup, etc?
