LSD for a 2008 Yaris
Hey guys, I'm looking to buy an LSD for my manual trans. I'm looking for a torsen type not a clutch type. TRD, Kaaz, Cusco etc. Let me know if anyone is interested in selling and shipping to the states

Any particular reason you prefer gear over clutch?

That's strange, I thought I had read Kaaz was a helical or torsen type? Thanks for the heads up.
I like the lock up in a clutch type better but I just don't want to have to remove the diff every once in a while to change clutch packs. Its a dd for me and gets driven about 25-30k I'm a year (much less than that once next year is over). So essentially the lack of maintenance where I'll have the car down for a couple days is the reason I thought I'd avoid clutch type

I like gear diffs in RWD cars, but in FWD the inside tire lift opens them up and kills forward motion. But I do agree, its set and forget it when it comes to a gear diff, only reason to open the box is if you ever need a synchro replaced.

Hmm, that's good info for sure. I didn't realize that they lasted that long. I may open my search up to clutch type as well. I thought it'd be something that I had to work on every 2 years or so. Every 5 is not a big deal
That's the one thing that sucks with the gear type is the fact that if I have zero traction on one wheel it esssentially becomes an open diff.

There are a couple options available but Iwant a helical due to the maintenance ease and the fact that it's a dd. My cheapest option is a quaife lsd and they are $1150 off eBay. I'm hoping to find a used one cheaper so I can spend the rest of the funds on other areas of my car
Clutch type are cheaper but not ideal for me
