Hey guys...need another opinion. How many of you have had experience with any of the various LSD setups available for a GSR swap? Which is the best? My mechanic has the Phantom Grip setup on his drag car....but doesn't like it. What do you guys think?

 

Phantom isn't a real LSD, it puts blocks into the gears, i think SCC has a whole article on installing one.

I'd get a KAZZ or find a Type R LSD. Get a real one if you expect real results.. remember you get what you pay for.

 

I use to run a phantom grip, it was okay. I didn't have any problems, and it seems to work pretty well for the price. I now run a new tranny with a Quaife and it seems to be better because it was more consistant.

 

i'd recommend getting a quaife. the price is $805 from groupbuycenter.com, go to their site and chek it out. quaifeusa.com they even have a limited lifetime warranty, the warranty covers anything that has to do with drag racing.

 

Yeah, the Quaife is pretty much indestructible. It's very quiet as well, and very responsive...

 

I got a new ITR LSD for $450 a few years ago, bough tnew bearings for $25 each, installed it myslef with a new clutch, and have been happy autocrossing, tracking and daily driving with that setup for 2 years now.

oem ITR LSD in a GSR tranny or ITR tranny gets
cheap.
reliable.
effective.

 

granted im lsdless....but from wat ive heard the phantom gripare rather worthles..quaife (sp?) amd kaaz are wat to get....and ive also heard that the itr are good but if ur makin a lot of power tend to break.....jus wat ive been hearing
