i've heard of it over on saabcentral.com, an alternative to quaife LSDs. i think it's just a rudimentary mechanical LSD. we've not heard back from one saaber who bought it yet, and quaife's require massive group buys (probably because of our odd swedish gearboxes)
i thought your car was a show car? most guys aren't too worried on an open diff in FWD until they break 200 lb/ft torque. |

| Its basically to blocks of metal with a spring in the middle. Nowhere near as advanced as a Quaife but it serves its purpose if you're a drag racer. |

Tell your frined to go onto DSMtuners and do a search. It is no where near what a quaife or kazz is but it will help out. |

| If your friend wants that type of LSD then I would tell him to look into Slowboy Racing or B&M. But hif he has some money then I would go with a quaife or kazz. |

I wouldn't recommend a Phantom Grip on a daily street driven car.

Does your friend want the front or center diff? |

Ya everyone says bad things about phantom grip, I'd stay away.
The OBX LSD's are replica's of the Quiafe's, literally, a member on honda-tech took it apart piece by piece and said the quality is not as good as the quaife, but it's like a 1/3 of the price and probably much better than the Phantom.
Also that member runs a shop that sells Quaife, so take that as you will.
One test guinea on Team-Integra is using an OBX LSD with his 600hp integra, he's bagged the shit out of it and it's still holding up.
OBX has a terrible reputation, but these LSDs seem to be holding up great on the track. |

If he is on a budget quaife doesn't really fit in. Great product yes, cheap no. And I would go with Kazz over quaife. |
