Part #: LSD 184 C. Cusco's high - performance limited slip differentials offer great benefits. When turning, the inner driven wheel often has less weight and can spin freely, which stops you from using full power and upsets the car's balance. Our LSD makes the other wheel spin at the same rate, maximizing traction when you accelerate out of a turn. During acceleration, a standard LSD might be too weak to lock both wheels, but Cusco's LSDs firmly lock both wheels, keeping the car stable and allowing you to use all your power. Cusco offers two types of LSDs. The Type - RS uses springs to absorb some initial torque, providing a smoother engagement, fewer vibrations, and a longer lifespan. It also reduces the frequency of oil changes. The Type - MZ has no springs and engages more firmly. You can adjust its sensitivity by changing the number of clutch plates, making it a cost - effective option. A 1 - Way LSD is perfect for FWD and AWD front axles. It activates only during acceleration, and when you lift off the throttle, it acts like an open differential, giving you maximum traction when turning and braking. When you accelerate again, it engages to ensure full power. Important Notes: Contact us if you have any questions about the differentials. If you need a specific differential setup not listed, reach out to us. The differential settings can only be changed during an overhaul after disassembly.
Using this Cusco limited slip differential is easy. Just install it in your Subaru STI's front axle as per the standard installation procedures. When you're driving, enjoy the improved traction during acceleration and turning. Remember, the 1 - Way LSD only works when you're accelerating. When you take your foot off the throttle, it acts like a normal open differential for better handling in turns and when braking. As for maintenance, the Type - RS LSD reduces the need for frequent oil changes, but still follow the general maintenance schedule for your vehicle. If you want to change the settings of the differential, you'll need to disassemble it during an overhaul. If you have any questions about the differential, like which type is best for you or how to set it up, don't hesitate to contact us.
