Default Trd Lsd

Just got my LSD and hope to install it this weekend. Does anybody know what type of limited slip it is, I'm assuming it's a clutch type. Is there anybody with the TRD LSD installed that can let me know what their experience has been.

Gain,

Use the search function in the main forum page and look for "limited slip".

Here's a link to the thread I wrote a few months ago. Jacob is also very knowledgeable on this subject.

Gain,

Like Steve mentioned, it's a 2way clutch type LSD which is different than the Torsen style LSD used on SupraTT.

On slippery surface at corners, when LSD locked down, you'll get a little fish-tail at rear end but you'll never get wheel spins. With TC installed, you can just put more HP to the ground instead of spinning wheel in the air
