LSD-5spd is Done
Well the install is done and it feels good...it corners real well and comes off the line alot better....the only thing I might have to bring it back to the guy for is that under axcelleration it feels rouf on the left side where they had to put in a different axel..if I lift my foot off the gas I dont feel anything but right when I put my foot back on, I feel the roufness on the drivers side ??? It may be cause the axel is bigger ? I dont know
-Matt
Also I hear a gear noise kind of, when Im rolling through a parking lot or in like 3rd and let off the pedal under light acceleration, its probably normal, you have to listen really carefull though

LSD-63K miles --> $500 from .orgy
Fidanza Flywheel-> $365 No limit moter sports
Axel-------------> $250 with core charge
Install $750
Stock shifter, master cyl, slave cyl, Trans.
Nissan stuff $150
All the LSD's I looked at were $1000-1500 dollars at the salvage yards
Im really worried about the roufness I have when I accelerate...Is it because of the bigger axel or what ??? Im going to bring it in for the guy to look at...
Cornering is amazing now

Is straightline also noticebly better like the cornering? I am wondering how you felt because I know you have problems getting traction with the boost and have the LSD. Did you notice yourself grabbing faster once the LSD tranny was installed?

sudz - as far as straighline, I was able to get 1/4mi 60's down by about .1 when i installed lsd if that, so no not much difference as far as times - as far as feel and forgiving on launches? yeah. I can spin both tires BAAAD all the way through the 60' and run a 2.3, so it is kinda fun even when the tires are just ablaze, you're still gettin pushed back - , but it in no way cures the whole wheelspin thing, they still spin plenty

See I figured it might have taken enough power from one wheel to transfer to the other where it might not have much wheelspin. Oh well, I guess it is improved but not perfect.
