What is this VLSD that people keep talking about in the I30's. Its in the 5-speeds. If I do a 5-speed conversion would this be better.???????

 

It's a limited slip differential. It transfers power from the wheel that is spinning to the wheel with traction. It helps a little on launches but mostly in accelerating through turns. You ever see a car do a one wheel peal out? That is not having VSLD.
From what I know the I30's VSLD is not the greatest, but it is better than nothing. Just doing a 5-speed swap from an I30 will not get you VSLD.
Oh, and it also came on some Maximas in Canada.

you need to get the diff from an I30t.
has to be the touring model.
but i heard quaiffe is much better. I'm also looking into getting the phantom grip. it is a cheaper alternative to other LSD's. I'm not sure how good it is though, so i'm trying to convince a friend of mine to give it a try first. =)

 

It does not have to be the touring model. Ask Fst96se.

 

Really? other I30's have the LSD? I know some canadian maxs have the LSD, but I thought as far as I30's, only the t's had them? If so, my bad.

 

Just one that I know of. The more I read I think that all 5-speed I30's have LSD

 

im pretty sure all 4th gens from canada come with vlsd, auto or manual. that includes any model.

 

I think only SE and ES models come with VLSD.
