Post this in the K-series section, it's in the all motor section up top. You will get much more replies in there than here, I don't really know of anyone in this section rocking a K.

i dont know what ebay number is but the only k series that come with lsds are the k20a, which would be a direct bolt on into the k20a2, and k20z3, whcih will require some modification. the only other option from choosing a trans with a preexisting lsd is getting an aftermartket lsd like wavetrac or quiafe and getting it installed into the k20a2 trans.

post some info up about the part youre interested in because no one is gonna waste their time looking for an ebay part #. also, the poster above is correct. might want to post this in the k series section. this section is meant more for b series than anything else

i do

out of curiousity i searched ebay for that item number. and just as i suspected it's a phantom grip. those things are pieces of **** and not a real LSD. i didnt even think they were still around.

OP, you've been asking some really retarded questions lately. i suggest you not get in completely over your head by attempting a k swap.

ive seen the part your talkin about and im not convinced i wouldnt spend 200 on a block of steel when u can buy yourself a helical lsd for your tranny for 800 i havent torn apart a k tranny yet but most manuals are very similar and really easy to rebuild if u want lsd either buy a lsd tranny or buy a REAL lsd and install it, i can see that thing blowing apart or breaking the diff.

With the questions you ask, I can tell you should not be taking on this type of swap.

BUT, in my opinion, it's not worth buying a K-series unless it's a K20a. But still, all that money (a little over 5k when the swap is complete), just to make 200hp with a k20a2? Not worth it.

the right bolt on's and a tune with a k20a/2/z1/z3 will easily make 220+whp. substitute a k24a2 instead and it'll make more tq than most of you guys make hp.

im sitting at 211whp 155wtq with i/rh/e/im/kpro and a tune. if i get a better header and bigger exhaust 230whp is right around the corner. throw some stage 2 cams in there and i have 240-250whp out of an internally stock engine (minus cams of course).

AWD TEG with stock K23A1 with 260ftlbs and 240hp, now that would be boss.
