Cusco LSD 180 C Limited Slip Differential

The Cusco LSD 180 C Limited Slip Differential (LSD) is engineered to enhance your driving experience by providing superior traction and control. This RS model stands out with its innovative design that allows for a smoother transition from non-operational to fully functional states, making it a fantastic upgrade over factory components.

Key Features

  • Low Initial Torque Setting: The LSD is designed with a lower initial torque rating than the MZ model, allowing for smoother turns even when the LSD mechanism is inactive. This feature ensures stability during cornering, enhancing your overall driving confidence.
  • Coil Spring Activation: Utilizing coil springs to apply activation pressure, the LSD maintains consistent pressure for reliable performance. This design minimizes chattering noise, providing a quieter ride compared to conventional LSD systems.
  • Customizable Performance: The RS Springs are housed within pressure rings, allowing you to adjust the number of springs for personalized engagement. This customization lets you fine-tune the responsiveness and locking characteristics to suit your driving style.
  • Advanced Clutch Plate Design: Cusco's exclusive radial grooves on the clutch plates facilitate instant oil movement, improving efficiency and durability. The polished pressure ring contact surface ensures even distribution of pressure across the clutch plates.
  • Enhanced Oil Circulation: The Cusco Oil Through System promotes optimal oil circulation, ensuring that all necessary components receive adequate lubrication, especially when paired with Cusco LSD Oil.
