Torsen LSD for yaris? - Toyota Yaris Forums

SirDigby · 11-14-2016, 01:06 AM

does anyone make a Torsen LSD for the yaris?
anyone have experience with a Torsen LSD on a FWD car?
does it work similar to a 1 way, or is it functioning on decel/braking?
this video was awesome! (but does not give info on decel/braking)

I haven't heard of a torsion available for the C50, but there is Quaife, KAZZ, OSgiken, and CUSCO(I have)

Torsen is quite rough for drive shafts !

Quaife is considered a torsen--since it's not based on friction discs--but uses a different gear mechanism than a traditional torsen.

Quaife:

Torsen:

I installed the Quaife in my gearbox after the supercharger, so I can't say how well it works with the 1.5 NA motor. If you do any offroad driving, or have frequent snow accumulation, it's very helpful for controlling wheel spin on low traction surfaces.

SirDigby · 11-22-2016, 10:59 PM

yeah, I thought quaife was built that way. awesome.
and yes, i'm thinking down the road when it's SC.
and yes, I live in Colorado. we sometimes get snow. and mountains can sometimes be steep. :)

and why would you not want more power going to the wheel with more traction? that is kinda the point... no, wait. that's the ONLY point...

ah... the ol' heel toe.
is it funny that I can "hear" your accent in your typing?
(maybe not. I guess it sounds Swedish in my head)
HA!

Dieselking · 11-29-2016, 06:17 PM

What type of gearbox do you have?
C50, or C150?

I have a brand new quaife diff here for a C150 type gearbox.
For 6 bolted crownwheels

SirDigby · 11-29-2016, 10:16 PM

idk. how is identified?

Dieselking · 11-30-2016, 12:11 PM

Should be on the wehicle identification plate.
there is a line with color/trim/transmission codes. (might have forgotten some of the codes)
Believe the last one on the line is transmission (tm)

I believe you have a C150

or you can PM me your chassis number, and I can check for you

SirDigby · 11-30-2016, 08:56 PM

most likely the c150. isn't the c50 the closed gear ratio 6 speed?

Dieselking · 12-03-2016, 12:12 AM

C50 is a stronger version 5 speed gearbox used in bigger engines, 1,6-1,8 liters

C150 is used in 1,0 litre to 1,6 litre engines.
