wow-ski - didn't have the patients to read thru the whole post here, but someone get me a towel... if there's one thing our ride needs its an LSD, boosted or not, the torque on the 2.4 is massive as is, this is gonna be amazing for anyone who wants to get the most out of what that engine has to offer.
Bravo young grasshoppa -
pics/ vids/ comments IMMEDIATELY!!!
2LoTc - back off - when you get a tC you can talk smack about what it does and doesnt need... maybe if you had been driving one for as long as all of us you'de know a bit about what its all about
- then again if you've got a tC and Im mistaken, change your avatar and take your car out to really see what it can do, when you realize it strenghts and limits you'll respect the car alot more
don't ruin an informative post for everyone by starting something

Avatars are beat. You don't need to know nothing about me.
NO 160 HP street driven car "NEEDS" a LSD. 160 tq is NOT massive.
nice street tires will make a MUCH more noticeable difference than a LSD.
The reason the tc in stock trim (and modded) spins tires so much -fooling everyone into thinking it needs LSD- is because its a heavy FWD car. Just because you chirp tires going around a curve does not mean you need a LSD.

ohh and btw. mommy and daddy have been nice to me but cant afford to buy themselves a new car let alone one for me. i havnt lived with them in 12 years because im 30 and actually grewup and took on responsibility when i graduated high school. I am a supervisor/programmer for the lathe department at a very successful machine shop and get paid well enough to pay for my own toys. and eventhough i love gran turismo...i knew much more about the mechanics of cars than you do now before the game was even created. you see me and my daddy had to fix the cars ourselves because it was too expensive to take it to a garage. i was doing brake jobs before i was a teenager.

I have to sound off here. I actually have seen the LSD in action and it is awesome. Now to the more fun part of this... I am from Buffalo, but I have moved down to Atlanta...so here is what I have to say. This is a forum about our cars and yes some of us have lots of money and some dont...It really does not matter. Philly huh congrats....what does Philly have ????? Well all it is city with lots of history.....so congrats on that one. Maybe you should go back to your little city and think before you talk and look like a total a$$ on this forum. You use to build cars back i the day well good for you.... maybe you should stick to that and stop proving that you have no interpersonal skills. Soooooo thanks for listining and for Buffalo..we have wings and you have a steak sub ...wow

Dex-- maybe i don't have a LSD in my 160 hp DD SCION...but i certainly know enough about mechanics to help work on a 9 second streetdriven drag car.
www.fuzionauto.com (i also shot the video)
While you were doing brake jobs...i was building turbo civics dsms and supras.
"you see me and my daddy had to fix the cars ourselves because it was too expensive to take it to a garage. i was doing brake jobs before i was a teenager."
OR maybe, you live so far out in the boonies that the closest mechanic shop was 57 miles away, so you were forced to learn how to fix your pickup truck yourself just like every other hick in this RED country.
Mods: i hate to add more BS to what was an informative thread. can you please spank this child and send him to his room? i think he needs a time out.

Philly huh. I grew up there and got out. Couldn't stand it anymore. I'll never go back. A big reason for leaving was because of ignoramous' like you.
Enjoy your miserable life. Obviously you are miserable with your life that you have to be on here bashing other people and what they do to their own cars. I vote a lock on this post, or at least a moderator deleting all the posts by 2LoTc and suspending his account until he has something worthwhile to add.

this has become gross. how about you guys take it all to PMs or some messenger, and leave this to be an LSD thread, not a brag-fest. and anyone who's actually that good, doesnt need to go around bragging on a message board to justify themselves. grow up. there is no excuse for this garbage. leave the egos at the doorstep.
the only reason every single SL thread turns into some locked crap is because people are too petty to just let something slide. im sure pride matters here.
IM FAR MORE INTERESTED IN HEARING MORE FROM THE GUY WITH AN LSD. IM SURE IM NOT ALONE IN THIS. lets leave it at that :]

and my point still stands: That putting a LSD in a tc is like putting a Stage 3 racing clutch in a tc. These mods are fun to say and talk about, and will work wonders in Gran Turismo, but in the REAL WORLD, they most likely do more harm/negative effects than good.
Go ask any REAL tuner...not just some kid who buys a tc then goes and googles everything he can think of about cars to try to learn something or some guy whose "friend" is a big time tuner and he told him so...

update:
ok it finally stopped raining and i got to run the new differential in the dry. ive always been able to drive into corners hard because of really stiff spring rates, beefy swaybars, and sticky rubber. but i could never come out of the apex strong because the inside tire would go up in smoke. this differential has solved this problem and now i can put the power to the ground. this car is really fun to drive now...will all 160 hamster power screamin under the hood. quaife's differential is worth every penny i paid for it.
