Hey guys ill be buying a gsr swap for the ej1, but i can decide whether i should get the LSD or not. I know what it is for but i dont know if it is actually worth the extra buck. I thought it would be a nice upgrade when i get the engine. I prbly be doing xcross so that would be the only place wheere i would use it. i dont think you really needed on regular basis on the street. Since we get winter for so long xcross wont be all year around. prbly 4 months a year. Can i have some advises?

 

My friend just installed an lsd and omg it makes a world of a difference in the corners. He says it helps in the snow a lot too. When I did my B16 swap I regret paying the extra 300 for an LSD tranny.

 

So you're saying not to get an LSD for a B16?

 

lsd is nice even for street driving, for example, when i hit a patch of sand with 1 wheel in my civic it doesn't jerk to the side like my integra would. same thing in snow; it helps keep your car from jerking around when 1 wheel loses traction.

 

The question is not whether or not to get the LSD, but how much LSD can you afford?????

my b16a has a kaaz lsd and it really does help a lot around the corners
