I installed a kaaz LSD last weekend and my install went great. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The gear bolts eventually came off(with an impact wrench) and the diff bearings wern't that hard to remove. After I broke it in I had a little fun and wow the kaaz is quite aggressive...I like! If anyone has any questions about my LSD install I would be happy to help.

I ordered the turbonetics kit (after much thought about what's out there). I might post some pics of the install once i get it. Got a RPS max clutch on the way too.

did you get 1.5way or 2way, how big of a difference do you feel?

would you say it is worth the money?

how much did you pay for it?

where did you get it form? overboost?

 

How much was that LSD? I just installed the TRD LSD and it works awesome.

I got the 2-way from driftfactory.com (dat3020) for my 5-speed sc300. It was $855 with shipping included and a free can of oil. You'll need one more can after you break it in. It is a big difference, but i know it will be 10x better when I get my turbo. It locks greater the more you accelerate or decelerate. kinda noisy at low speed turns, add some more throttle and the rear locks. Fun, I need power though.

Definately worth it and relatively easy to install.

 

Hmm.... why did you go with Kaaz if the TRD LSD is simmilar in place and known to last high power? Just curious.

I guess its just preference. I wanted a kaaz lsd when I had my civic, but got a type-R lsd. Now I have one(for my sc). Kaaz is a really good product I think. Required no shims, fit perfectly. Pretty sensitive to acceleration/deceleration too. I'm sure the TRD is fine too, but its 1.5 way right? Again, preference.

 

TRD LSD is the same if not better than Kaaz.

sorry to bring up an old thread but i was just curious if you could post pics of the install and if you're really are bored maybe a little write up along with it.. Because im considering purchasing the kaaz lsd also.. any info and feedback is appreciated.. thanks

 

The service manual has great instructions.
Thats what I used

How do you know for sure TRD is same or better than Kaaz? Just wondering, I mean 2yrs ago I had TRD in my Supra and liked it.

But wondering what comparison data you have for this statement? Have you had a chance to pull apart and run both rear ends?

Jay

PS - TRD req'd shims to make it fit!

 

Shims are not always required. Only if you measure play or wear after the install.

if you get kaaz 2-way lsd get ready for a lot of noise. but im lovin it. nice when the car gets sideways.

 

what all did you replace. I'm putting my Kazz 2way in this weekend. Bearings, shims, housing gasket, any thing else?

 

Has anyone recently installed one of these with a 3.92 differential?

 

I installed one about 2 years ago but its with a 3.26 gear.

Also, mine is the quiet version which I can report is in fact quiet but still very aggressive.
