DO NOT get a Phantom Grip.

It doesn't really behave like a limited-slip diff, however the closest thing it approximates is a 2-way. If you've ever played Gran Turismo you know that a 2-way is bad.



Aside from that, it'll tear up your stock diff. Overall a piece of crap I wouldn't wish on anyone.

There's a reason it gets the name Phantom Slip Limited Grip. It basically just locks your differential, so it's only good for drag racing and that's it. I'd go with an OEM honda LSD personally.

It's expensive but i'm a big fan of quaife if you can afford it. If not then OEM honda would be great like dubster said.

Any clutch type diff will need to be rebuilt, the ITR diff will not since its a mechanical unit. Just something else to consider.
