Quaife LSD owners
After about two weeks of my mechanic trying to find a h22 tranny with LSD I have given up. I told him, fuc* it im just going to put a quaife in it and call it a day. (since in those two weeks I got another pay check lol)
So my question to you is:
1. Where did you purchase your quaife LSD and how much did you pay.
2. Are you happy with it?
Thanks.

Not from personal experience, but I can answer #2. Everyone who has used Quaife's LSD are extremely happy with it...Quaife makes a good product.
As for where to purchase it, I'd look in your local yellow pages and start calling various shops. If they dont' have it on their floor, they can probably order it. You're in So Cal, you shouldn't have any problem whatsoever. Try locating **** in NH. :fawk:

since we're on the subject
I e-mailed quaife a couple weeks ago to be sure they made an LSD for the 6th gen's f23. This was the reply I got:
I'm *assuming* that since the H22 and F23 transmissions mate up, the LSD used in an H22 can also be used on an F23, thus their mention the SH? maybe? narf!

Mr. Kaufman,
Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, the Quaife ATB diff will work in these
models as long as it is a 5-speed manual and not the SH version.

Well .. if you are doing any kind of racing of sorts, the LSD is nice. When you are auto-xing it helps around corners a ton. How ever, if you are not going to do that, it really isn't worth the money. You are going to be paying 900 bucks for the unit. Another 400 or so to get it installed. You probably should also get your differential bearing replaced as well if you do get it. The reason why it costs so much is they have to take your tranny apart to install it.
