My buddy has an open n wants to set the car on fire every time it does a 1 wheel peel! I cant even drive the car because every time I press the gas, 1 wheel spins really fast n the car dont go anywhere.

yah, Im gonna go see if this guy 1 block away will do it cheep if not free.

Im sure I could drive his car if I changed my driving habbits but fuck that 100% throttle all the time! He wants to set it on fire I want to put in a welded diff n call it a day. Plus he wants to be able to drift better.

Get a real LSD and feel awesome and not worry about diffs breaking or the dragging always locked tire feel, trade it in for a clunky on power, open diff off power feel.
Welded diffs with none of the bads.

I have a nismo 2way. My friend is very poor so unless you know where to find a vlsd or better for $50, he cant afford it. Does anyone think he should drive with an open diff untill may when he will be able to afford a $100 vlsd. He wants to go out to desoto with us and really learn how to drift and not peg leag it around the track untill next may and then have to relearn the feel when he gets a diff.
