Ok, so i know our cars dont have it, which is ackward. Cant drift too much, cant have the usual fun as i had with my E46 m3 but anyway, will this fit, and whats the difference between this 2.0 way and 1.5way, etc.

who else offers diffs.

 

i would assume it's gt3 only given that's what vividracing specified. you can ask them though.

 

LSD was optional on a couple years....swap your diff with a used LSD unit?

 

If you can get a Quaife diff that fits, that would be the absolute best. Not really LSD - it is gear driven. Guaranteed for 25 years even if used for racing. I put one in my G35 TT sedan and couldn't be happier.

 

back in the days , with my FWD cars, Quaife was the best, and still is...but as I went through variety of vehicle manufacturers, each had its own prized possession performance parts. What brand in LSD dept. does porsche value the most?

 

ok.. im a bit puzzled by this thread. I own a 1999 C2 and lay down 2 nice healthy black stripes whenever i feel like it.

I could nly do this with a LSD..... open diff would nt allow this and i know that i havent dropped any cash to replace it.

Can anyone elaborate on this????

 

Look at your option code. 99's had optional LSD...not sure how much additional you had to pay back then

 

Sergio, if your 99 996 has a traction control button on the dash (TC off), you have the optional limited slip differential.

 

Yes sir... I have the traction button. What a great thing..... i know the newer traction sytems are better but i've been in the car with my wife behind the wheel and it has saved us more than once rounding a slippery corner.

 

I havent turned off my PSM on my 4s yet. How is the drive with out it?Funny or dangerous?

 

it's fun....but it can be dangerous if you USE your PSM a lot.

I mean, do you get it to come on a lot? If so, turning it off could get yourself in some trouble as you don't really know how far you can push the car before it "goes".

I turn mine off for autocross and trackdays....but leave it on for street driving.

 

Randy Pobst once said if you find the stability control is slowing you down, then turn it off; otherwise keep it on. Sound advice from a great racecar driver, especially if you don't want to back into a guard rail.

 

LSD is a must in my opinion.

Be able to put that power down to the ground. Not familiar with what's best on a 996 but OEM would always work for relatively cheap.

 

Its one of those things that you should be aware of how it will cause your car to perform. You and the car mst be on the same page at all times! I remember on one occasion i needed to get into traffic from a dead stop and there was no break in sight, so i needed to jam on the gas as hard as i could! Forgetting about how much the car boggs down when interrupted, i nearly had the *** end of my car taken on by a truck. It shuts the car down for a mere second and feels slow to get the power on again when you really need it. Lesson learned. Always turn it off if you realy need the power.

 

Fit a Wavetrac you will never regret it.

My Turbos turn in is now as quick as my Boxsters.
