Hi people!

I was the first in August 2007 to have it installed.
It is the best mod, yes, I think the same!

Edit: if you have an SMG your gearbox will change gear faster with the Quaife!

What are the benifets of having a lsd verse not having one. Since both wheels are spinning, hence more power being put down to the ground, would you be safe to say it makes your car somewhat faster?

Come on, many people here waste money in lips etc. and you don't want to spend for the best mod?
