Any engineers in the house? We could use some LSD
I'm not very educated on how LSDs are supposed to work, be installed, or if it's even possible on our car.
All I know is, is that the Differential we have limits us when it comes to having fun :D
Can anyone discuss how a LSD can be fabricated, and installed?
I see alot of Civic LSDs for sale and whatnot. Is a LSD universal or partly universal? Can we possibly use a LSD from another Toyota?
Thanks for the info!
P.S. Tein SS coilovers should have been finished. I'm gonna email them today about them.

LSD's come into action when one of the wheels looses traction due to road conditions like water or mud. It makes both wheels to accelerate at the same rate. Now, if both wheels are on a dry and even surface and you want maximum acceleration without traction loss (skreeching tires) then you are talking about traction control. It is done by the computer by reducing the power sent to the wheels until the car recovers traction. In some vehicles, even the brakes would actuate automatically to reduce the spinning of those wheels going faster than the slowest wheels on the set.
Just my two cents
