The correct statement is the LSD is Always defective.


IMHO do the suspension/LSD, OSgiken for mine, and limit the power mods to an exhaust and tune, unless you are into 1/4 mile, that will give you plenty of power.

Is the stock LSD THAT Crap???? The one on my 944 Turbo was brilliant and it survived 100+ race/trackdays.. How can the most expensive Car (at the time) in Porsche's lineup have a bad LSD?

An exhaust and a tune may not be enough.. Bear in mind, I am a lifelong LiterBike rider and used to my Kawaski ZX-10R that with mods made 172 RWHP... I miss that insane rush and want the same in a Car...

Yeah the LSD's aren't known for their long-lives... It's a bit worse on the 997 GT3/RS (and 2) because of the PSM/Traction ****e that kicks in when you don't want it to:P

If you guys carry a better LSD for my 2003 GT2, can you PM me a price and specs please?

It's a real pity you are English... We Scots are really not supposed to consort with your type...
