Torsen (torque sensing) diff centre

low mileage according to the guy I bought it from, but age unknown.

apparently perfect, these things don't wear out like the clutch type LSD's

price: $600

To Fit: R34 Skyline rear diffs (sadly, it won't fit my R33 because the splines are slightly different, which is why I'm selling it.)

location: Coolangatta NSW, near Berry

Comments:Torque sensing differentials have several distinct advantages. Of all the differential designs they offer smoothest transfer of torque to the wheel which has the most grip. They do not lock up suddenly like a clutch-type LSD, but will lock up progressively when traction is lost during cornering or in the wet. They will not cause understeer into a corner under deceleration, like a tight, clutch-type, 2-way LSD will. They offer superb handling on wet and slippery tarmac. This type of diff allows earlier acceleration out of corners so your engine's power is better utilised. When adhesion between tyres and the road is good, these diffs behave like an open diff. Unlike clutch-type LSDs that are at their best when new but continually wear out from that point onward, the helical gears in this diff do not wear out, so handling and performance is the same throughout the life of your car. In straight line acceleration from a standing start, they will lock solid giving the maximum traction off the line.

A good diff specialist can fit one of these in about 2 hours.

Will email pics if required.

I re-advertised this item in September this year for only $400 but someone still wanted to knock the price down even further and then changed their mind. I won't give it away because I now realise I could fit it to my S2 Stagea if I decide to improve its track performance
