B1nks, did you do the install yourself? how was it? i did the lsd install on my miata with the help of a friend, but it was not easy. i'm thinking of having a shop do it on the z, unless someone can tell me it's not too bad.

F**********ck no I didn't do that myself ! Haha I can do some basic stuff but this is a no go on the self do list. The full lock will not be for drifting because it's 1.5 way and does not full lock up on corner entry. If you feel you get too much understeer then counter with sway bars and alignment ! I haven't noticed any understeer added and if there is it's VERY minor but it's so minor that adjusting it with sways or simply powering out would appear to be a simple adjustment.
Also Z1 should have those half shafts you're going to need, if they don't some vendor on here should.
