affordable front LSD solution

I have just come across the Phantom Grip on Ebay. Its rather cheap compared to a Nismo Unit.

That'd be because there's not nearly as much to it as the Nismo unit. - I'm not saying it's no good, but it's not the same as a true mechanical LSD; I think someone (probably Danny) said it's better for use on the road, but not on the track or a low-friction surface.

Jonathan, have you been living in a cave, these have been used in the pulsar with success for ages, Ivan was using one back in 2002/3, Rob had one in his car back in 2009 to name but a few.

If you search for phantom grip the forum is full of it..............

I not seen one on Ebay so i thought i would put it up. I know what it does. Its really just a heads up.

Did rob fit one to his.

 

[red reading]

yes and i fitted one too, they were the special order 1000bhp one's with the stronger springs...........they do work to a degree.

 

[PobodY]

Is there a "true" LSD that they are similar to; for example do they behave more like a torsen dif because of they way they apply pressure to the gears?

 

[Lynx]

They work like a mechanical diff without the torque sensing. So they are preloaded like a mechanical, but only limit slip, like a viscous.

This is my old phantom grip after being fitted which worked great for the money.
