Johny Bravo Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Get lsd. Locking the diff will wear your tires far quicker. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/342866-diff-lock-or-lsd-with-diff-gears/#findComment-5531728 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad082 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 locking the diff = illegal, wear out tyres faster and does affect handling in a negative way (that's why diffs were invented) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/342866-diff-lock-or-lsd-with-diff-gears/#findComment-5531872 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannond Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 just asking coz i wanted to know how bad it was for my car, because ive always wanted to get lsd but my friends are always like just lock the diff and i wasnt never 100% keen on it as i thought it would be annoying for parking and stuff, Whats a good diff gear ratio i should get for more torque?

Johny Bravo Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 not sure. What state are you in? Find a trustworth mechanic and they'll tell you exactly what will suit your car.

You've probably already got a 4.3 diff. GTRs are 4.1 so going the wrong way for you. There are 4.6 diffs out there you will have to ask around. 4.3 and 4.1 most common.
