Hey @Thraxbert - any NVH increase from these inserts? How are they treating ya? These seem like a better alternative to the hardrace kit because they include a top and bottom piece.. although maybe the tradeoff vs the hardrace kit is NVH...

That thing is super cool. Not in my wheel house but if you are looking for someone to sign off on it for you, tell your wife you have my permission and she can't argue with it ;)

I'm looking for an LSD that doesn't function by a bajillion sensors, I'd rather it function by my right foot. All just personal preference in regards to driving characteristics.

You may be right. I'll reach out to Power Tune to see if they have more information on how their custom maps function.

Also Powertune Australia has a Motec PNP kit in the works where they claim the following: "...With the introduction of our MoTeC PNP ECU kits for these vehicles, a solution was required to allow tuners the ability to control the [LSD] lockup as they please. This meant reverse engineering the...

No surprise - seems to be the answer to every RWD platform that makes good power: 8.8 swap ?

My personal opinion - hopefully it's more helpful than confusing. Wavetrac and all other helical/torsen LSDs (Eaton, Quaife, etc) are better than an open differential, but fall short of a locking mechanical LSD (such as a clutch pack based LSD). This is because they can unpredictably act like an...

I shall investigate the HKS. Thanks for the tip. Here is my alignment - just OEM specs :)

Yeah I think I will. Even my street build should be a ton of fun. The new EC02s seem very capable as I've already set some PBs in turns I take every day simply from the raw coefficient of friction being better vs the stock PSS. For instance no longer having to lift off to avoid slip angle on...

God I wish we had roads like that in Texas. I just drove a road called "Devils Backbone" today in my Supra.. more like "Devils Limpdick".. so boring. I think it's time to move (as much as I love Texas).

You gonna love em man. I've got nothing but compliments.

Guess I gotta do it then, for science!

Just read through your build thread. It all makes sense now, glad your engine still looks pristine :)

Hasn't rained yet which is where most of my wheel hop has been occurring lately. Will update!

Here are my personal reasons: Saved total unsprung weight Every 10lbs of unsprung weight is calculated to shave .10 off your quarter mile. Fuel mileage is increased even at the same rotational diameter simply because the weight is lower (lower rotational inertia) Cheaper tires 18" tires are...

Installed new rims and tires Apex SM-10RS in Motorsport Gold Square 18x10 ET30 275/40/18 ExtremeContact Sport 02 filled to 33psi Stock suspension, no spacers. Just clears by a few mm. No rubbing issues that I felt on the 30 mile drive home. Thank Satan because spacers are the worst. I've ran...

What are your power goals now?
