Anyone with OS Giken LSD?

ok, so it looks like i'll need at least a replacement shaft. is this a dealer item or do you have those, z1? and how much? what about the price for the bearing/ seal package?

i assume the "default setting" would be 1.5 way/ full lock plate config./ and highest initial break away torque for the cone springs, correct? i'm looking for less than full lock... maybe around 80%, which would be 1 set of plates in the "de-activated" configuration? the full lock would be great for drift/ drag, but not ideal for grip as it would induce understeer on throttle.

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.
