Yeah, I've had the diff on for a while...daily drive it through ice, snow, rain, etc.

It makes a big difference in daily driving...most people say it doesn't, but its because they have never had a car with a true mechanical limited slip diff.

I agree. In my 350, anytime I was moderately hard on the gas in a corner ( right turn or left turning) my one wheel would spin; especially in wet. Zero issues in the F.

Not IME. The Supra came with a Torsen, It makes a big difference two or three times a week. Maybe. Unless I pick a particular road with elevation issues, then guaranteed it makes a noticeable difference.

I'm still putting the Giken spool in my F.
