I just ordered my 4.083 gears and I was considering upgrading my LSD to probably a Wavetrac and maybe an OS Giken based on Spencer's recommendation at Z1.

I am having a tough time justifying the price though because I think I will notice the gearing a lot more and that is significantly cheaper. I really do not notice an issue with the factory LSD so I will spend the next few days driving at/above the limit with the VSC off to see if I can justify it. I am also having a tough time finding anyone with a G who has upgraded the LSD and I do not want to be the guinea pig.

Any thoughts?

 

I have a Cusco RS 1.5 way LSD in my car, I prefer clutch type LSDs as opposed to Torsen. I think for daily driving a Torsen would be ok but if you intend to take your car to the track you should definitely go for a clutch type LSD.

For an example, if you ever get one wheel off the ground while cornering under power a Torsen differential will act like an open differential and you will suddenly have no power when the wheel lifts.

 

I guess you didn't hop onto my370z.com as I suggested.

 

Good to know. Thanks! And here I was trying to convince myself to go wavetrac so I didn't have to pay an arm and a leg for diff. fluid.

I have not had a chance to yet. Were there a lot of G sedan owners who posted up on that site about LSD's? I was really hoping to find someone with a sedan as the handling is quite different than a 370Z due to the weight and wheelbase. The fact that I have only seen one person so far with a different LSD in a sedan does not exactly inspire me with confidence.

 

I'm closing this thread since it' a duplicate.
