welded or vlsd

BluRRboSi · 09-29-2006, 02:04 PM

like it says, I heard about vsld's working fine, but welded garuntees both spinning. right?

Can anybody think of advantages & disadvantages?/opinions from personal expierence?

holy fucking search.

vlsd = good when it wants to be. yeehaw and relatively cheap.

welded = good when you need it to be. possible grenade action which is cool and gets chicks.

either way you will drift better and love your car much more with either.

VLSD = don't always like you.
WELDED = 100% locking alll the time. You catch lots of attention at gas station.

2 way > welded > vlsd > open

CFP_IVAN · 10-23-2006, 12:10 AM

if you are looking to be road racing, drifting, drag, and daily driving, you should go with a vlsd or a 1.5 way diff, it allows your car to handle better in turns, welded is bad ass too, i have a s14 with lsd and have a s13 with welded diff. but i like the vlsd better because i like grip racing also. i recommend you should keep it open and practice shifting the weight of your car to get the car to slide, you can drift very good with open. and when you get good then go to the next step.

^I've been pondering welded diff but scared i'll kill myself as a daily driver getting on it on the highway. :X scarryyy
probably go vlsd tho

McLovin' · 10-26-2006, 11:18 AM

from personal experience, welded is extremely easy to get the back end out, and seems very controlable. I will say there are some definate practicality issues with it though. small radius turns, at low speeds not sliding are annoying, all you hear is chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp and you get mean looks from old ladies at the grocery stores. also, god forbid you ever have to push your car off the road or any where that requires turning the car, the turning portions IS A BITCH!!!!!!!
with that said, if you are hardcore and dont give a fuck, weld it
if you want sanity in everyday driving and drifting is not something you do ALL the time and is not the sole purpose of your car, I would vote VLSD, i know thats the route im taking on my convertible....

Griffin400 · 10-26-2006, 11:26 AM

well im guessing everybody likes the welded diff.

If you do alot of drifting then get the welded diff but for DD for sure get a VLSD.
