Icon5 What do you think of this "LSD"

hey guys, just wondering what you guys think of this "LSD", do you think its worth the savings(350$ vs $735) and would work as well as a real LSD? Has anyone put one in their transmission and have any tested feedback?

The old phantom grip.

Don't waste your time and money. Get a real helical or clutch style LSD.

I still have one that came with a pile of H22 parts that I purchased about twenty years ago... I would feel guilty selling it to someone. What a pile of junk: just two more large, heavy steel plates flying around inside your transmission when the spider gear locating bar breaks (which is the weak link in a stock differential) helping to break the rest of the once good parts. As stated above: Get a REAL LSD and move on. Buy once... Cry once.

I've been into Hondas for 10 years and never seen this haha. Is it actually a chunk of metal you put inside your diff?

Yes. It is actually a PAIR of metal plates with springs in between them that apply pressure to the spider gears. These plates are supposed to minimize the spider gear movement and reduce slip...
