My homie who one the Falken Drift Showoff a few months back in Berkeley Ca, told me he tried a welded diff, and preferred vLSD well over it. Even with that said, I'll still prolly try a welded..lol.

Basically i just wanted to say vLSD's are great for drifting and all around driving.

Tested it out for the grind event in houston and i love it to death. Awesome event, I know me and Anand had a good timeThings Ive noticed:1. DDing the car, the car tends to understeer when doing tight turns, not a big problem, just dont go in as fast2. Diff makes some cool noise when doing tight turns, and people stare at you.3. Swapping a diff on gravel sucksOther than that, its freaking awesome. Have yet to do extensive testing in the rain. Not sure whats gonna happen if I nail a puddle Things Ive noticed:

You may look like some tard when you are in a busy parking lot trying to park. Some people have horror stories with welded diffs most of the time it wasn't done right. Tires will wear out much quicker and road courses and autoX will be out of the question if you are trying to do decent. Weld it then save for a real diff down the road or buy a vlsd and sell it for what you bought it for when you get a real diff. 574-240sx 2005-10-30T15:39:30-08:00 http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread?id=141398;postid=1446846#1446846 Take the diff t a good welder.
