Limited Slip Diffs for Autos ??

KillBill · 08-02-2011, 02:56 AM

I recently found out that LSD's are made for autos. I have a 5AT G37 and haven't heard any feedback from anybody who had an LSD for a G37(Big surprise, I know

. I'm hoping you 370 guys that race have some input. So, has anybody installed an LSD for a 7AT? If so, can you please post your experience with it? Thanks.

I don't know of anyone who has done a LSD on a auto yet. Hey you could be the first. There might be some differences but probably very little.

Hmm I might be the first...

Any 7AT's out there with an LSD??

You can buy sport package with an AT

Well he probably means one that isn't viscous. The stock viscous unit really isn't that bad though, all things considered. The aftermarket 1.5-ways are more efficient and better-handling though.

Yeah, I'm trying to see if any 7AT guys gave installed a Carbonetics or OS Giken 1.5. They do make them for autos now...just wanted some input.

Z1 has done a couple....call them.

Anybody have any input with a 7AT and LSD?

I plan to upgrade my LSD someday, probably sometime during 2012. I'm still on the fence about doing a clutched LSD (e.g. Carbonetics / OSG) or a Torsen/Quaife -style though.
