Nice. For the typical driver, the type-RS is the one to have as it's better suited for the street.

I'm also looking forward to the Quaife LSD for the 370Z.

Hopefully OS Giken has diffs on the way as well.

Clutch type, with LOTS of friction disks.

Check this out, it's from the English Cusco site, good breakdown of the RS and MZ type LSD:

Aftermarket diffs will always be clutch or gear type.
