Lsd ?

I'm just curious about what LSDs everyone uses and whether or not a stock one will work on my 89 (or if it's any good).
Any feedback is appreciated seeing as there are a few to chose from and a wide cost difference between ripping one off a car in the wreckers or buying a new one.
Thanks for you help.

buying a new one would be best bet but costs like 900 bucks.

You can use the diff out of a Infiniti J30, it bolts rite up.

SE models come standard with VLSD....
Or you can go with a KAAZ limited slip for $850
Or an overly priced NIZMO for about $1000
Cusco also makes some sik dif for abot $950

My SE didn't come with one.

And NISMO aren't over priced..I got one for $500+..Granted it was a hook up..but none the less. They rarely touch the $1k mark.

What's overpriced are there shoulder pads. DAMN!

Antioch Nissan is tryin to sell the LSD for a G.... Never buy from the dealer.... Granted you can get them for cheaper.........
$500 is a bomb deal......
I was lucky and got VLSD on my ride, was probably installed from the guy that previously owned it before me.....
I want to upgrade probably to the KAAZ.......... Best bang for your buck, for reliability. Get off the line harder too..

Kaaz is the way to go if you have to chose between the 3.

But I got mine cheap..so I went w. Nismo.

Cusco, If I remember.., are built by KaaZ too..just different name.

Nismo 2 way best for daily driver, kaaz and cusco are pretty much the same (made by same people, litle different specs, look, etc.)

Cool....
Thanks for your help guys. My choice is easier now. I really didn't want to rip out a half way baffed one from the wreckers anyhow.
Thanks

The Nismo GT is about 1200.00 reason is it comes with output shafts as well.

Yeah but It sounded like he was talking about the "street" model.
