yeah, the price is a big one. but the fact that the helical acts like an open diff on decel is important to me - it will make corner entry a lot more neutral (like a stock car). it's my understanding that a clutch-type LSD will actually try to prohibit the car from turning.

. When I first looked up the prices for the Quaife diffs I had to rub my eyes a few times to make sure I was seeing what my brain told me I was lol. Either way, I'm extremely happy that you were able to glean from this to help with your decision

i guess the question is - if you had to buy one, which would you get?
