LSD install deal in Atlanta
Boris@SMS is offering a discounted rate for LSD install if we can get 3 people interested. The install price will be $450 including seals and diff oil. If you wish to purchase the Wavetrac from him, the total price installed will be $1600 for a bolted diff, $2300 for welded diffs. I am definitely in on this and "Manny_World" as well, so all I need is one more person. Just reply to this thread if you are interested and I will contact Boris@SMS when we are ready.

Any discount if I want to DIY the pumpkin install? If so, I am definitely interested. I have a spare pumpkin (welded) that I would like a Wavetrac installed in.

Every welded diff has to be shipped out Wavetrac. There no other way around it.
Wavetrac will laser cut the weld make new holes for new bolts and supply us with new gear for the install. If you have the pumpkin and like us to send it out and install the LSD once we get it back. $ 2000.00 |

wow this is crazy...cause im about to buy an lsd but suddenly got caught up in which one to buy.
i was for sure it was going to be the wavetrac, but then started to read about clutch type and now i might go that route since there is a company that is selling a clutch type for about $2400. convince me boris...i need an lsd asap lol.

If you can, PM me the info of what company is offering a clutch based LSD for that price. I did a lot of searching and the cheapest I found was almost $2800 for the LSD installed in the pumpkin and I would still have to mount it on the car myself. |

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...&highlight=lsd ...performance gearing...talked to the guy for a while and he seems to have a good idea of whats goin on.
it only has 3 clutch plates but the amount of track time that im seeing i highly doubt im going to burn those clutches up, but i just want a clutch type over the torsen if the cost is not that much higher. it would take a little more maintenance but thats not really a problem especially since he drills and threads a bolt in on the bottom. sorry op im not trying to thread jack but just trying to get a little more info on which lsd to get. if i get the wavetrac its going to be this one. anyway i like the idea of having the static lock, but if the torsen style really locks in quickly then i might just end up getting the wavetrac.

If you are going to be in Atlanta anytime soon you could get the OS Giken installed in your pumkin and on the car for around $2500 (if your bolted)....win win lol. $2400 for a pumkin is a pretty good deal though. If you do decide to go with this deal just let me know. Either LSD will be a huge improvement over stock!

Depending on timing, if someone has a welded diff in needs a quick swap and wants to get this done, a core exchange may be available for a core charge of $900.

That's a great deal. Only Quaife made an option for my 135. If you've tuned your car, it's a must have mod.

I've hated how the open diff performed since the day I bought the car, but the price of an LSD was always more than I wanted to spend before this came along. I'm still waiting on one more person to make this happen. Maybe I should post a link over on 1addicts too

Awesome. Just let me know if you decide for sure. Boris may be able to give you a little more of a deal since the install price included the seals and oil, but you'd probably have to work that out with him. Let me know if you need any more info. I'm getting mine installed May 25th, but you are free to get yours done whenever is convienent for you.
