First of all I've search trough the forum, but not found the info I need..

I'm going at drift day last 2 week with the S14, now I've understand that I really need to change the diff.
I drive the car daily and also for drifting, what I've looking for is a 1.5 way.
But what I've not understand is the compatibility etc.. I think our S14 have a vlsd, so if I buy a Cusco is it a direct bolt on?
I've think about a cusco rs o mz (still not understand which is better for me..)

Any advise or explanation is very appreciate..
The major problem is understand english as well!! :cry:

Go with a welded diff for DDays. Everyone loves them!

WASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSUP guy

smogtec did a write up... he bought a direct drop tomei 2way LSD.. from OPEN TO LSD KIT.... since u have a VLSD youd buy the LSD DIRECT DROP IN KIT...http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=76698&highlight=tomei+lsd

theres the write up.... Most ppl who drift prefer the 2way, rather then a 1.5

heres a page on the differences

I believe Cusco RS and MZ are both 1.5 and 2 way adjustable. Supposedly the RS engages 40% faster than the MZ or a Kaaz type differential because it uses springs instead of cones to engage the differential. Its also supposed to be smoother and more durable.

Thanx all guys!!
I've just read the 2 link..nice..
What about the 2 way?? so isn't true that in rain condition you're fuxxed??
Here's there aren't anyone that have a lsd on a nissan so it's hard to understand well, I like drifting and I want learn it as well but at the same time I don't want a vary hard to drive in normal street..
Just read that kaaz is maybe the best?
Anyone that have a cusco or a kaaz on?

I know 2 people with a cusco 2-way and they both love it. It engages really hard even and slow speeds which is fun and makes gangster noises unlike my Tomei :( Tomei and Kaaz are basicly the same, the Tomei just engages faster. 2-way is perfectly fine in the rain as long as you arent driving like a complete idiot. Even if you do get into a bad situation its totally controlable.

yep, i plan on running a tomei... i can do with out the noise.... but have read that alot of people add the ford lsd additive with the fluid after breaking in...running a 2 way is more forgiving then running a welded diff and both snap axels.... i suggest locating a open diff to mod... instead of running a clutch type in a already lsd diff... because if your going to snap outputs. locating open outputs is alot easier then locating lsd outputs...

what kind of engine mods do u have hotrodv? so whats ur name?

Massimo..

At the moment I run about 250/280 hp.. but if I find some money I plan to do with a gt2871r next year and be around 350hp..

Do u mean that the cusco make lot noise? I've just read about kaaz..seem good.. and about the 1.5 or 2 ??
My drift skills is basic, I just started to practice with "pendulum" in italian, I think is feint..and ebrake..track where we can try isn't too fast..

Hey my Italian friend, get a Illegal Garage 2way! Same as the Nismo LSD, but much much cheaper! ($400 or so cheaper :))
