Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with the OBX Racing Sport LSD?

I'm inclined to pay more for a Quaife LSD, but might consider one of these if people report that they're good.

Cheers,

Owen

I don't have personal experience with them, but I seem to recall reading some reports that those units required a little bit of machine work due to some less than quality production, but I can't remember if it was here or on Pelican or Rennlist...have you tried doing a search?

Hmm, at half the price of a Quaife you could put a couple hundred into it for machining and touch up and still come in under a grand US.

I'm gunna give this some thought.

Thanks for that - I must have misspelt OBX when I did a search!

I didn't realise that they are a Chinese ripoff of the Quaifes either!
