I am considering a Tomei Tech Trax LSD, as I have heard good things, but...

I don't want a Kaaz, as they are notorious for being ridiculously noisy. I was told about Tomei being nicely quiet, but have heard that they are sometimes fabricated by Kaaz. This would obviously be contradictory to reports of minimal noise.

Are there certain ways to determine which are the Nismo manu's, and which are Kaaz? (I am looking at the 20-plate version)

Anticipatory Gratuity.

Right...

Anyone know of a better forum site to ask this question?

All I've gotten out of the guys at Kaaz is verification that they do produce some, as does Nismo.

I suppose, if anything, I can simply update this thread with my findings...

Hmm... All I know is that my Tomei TT is noisy as hell... IMO. No difference in noise than either KAAZ or NISMO. Yes, I've heard both of them...

As far as being able to tell who made what, sorry, can't help you
