I have a JDM VLSD case (the internal VLSD part) from an R160.
This can be installed in our rear diffs to convert it them to limited slip.
This part will convert your R160 open diff to VLSD but, depending on what car you are putting the diff on, you will need the correct stubs or axles.
$125 shipped with set-up instructions.
I have two of these.

Dang it Frank. Why can't you wait about two months until I have a real job so I can afford to take one of these LSD's off your hands . Seriously though, in about two-three months (if not sooner) I'm going to seriously be in the market for a 4.11 rear LSD.

I will most likely have something here for you when you need it.

any idea what kind of power levels these will stand up to?

I could potentially be hitting you up for one of those sometime around xmas Frank

No, but I am sure we can count on someone here to find the limit, can't we?

maybe Ill hold off till I can get my hands on a kaaz unit then

We beat the everliving crap out of this kind of LSD diff. Won more than one rally cross in open class, autocrossed it, plenty of dirtbike trips towing trailers etc. Never had any issues after quite a few miles. This was in Eric's old legacy with 20G DOHC heads, VF39, etc etc. This car actually broke a rear half shaft right in two if that tells you anything. That diff is currently in Tristains car treating him well.


And Frank, PM'd you

SOLD to mr soul, both of them.
Thanks Keith!
Looks like the limits have yet to be found

Does anyone know if it is possible to slip the center section into the front?

As long as you are talking about what I think you're talking about, they are different front to rear.

Ya, in my messed up english and grammar I was attempting to query about the front center section and its similarity to the R160. So, basically you answered my quesiton as to if it will fit.

So, on to the next question, does anyone know if there is an available LSD for the front that is a OEM type piece?

To the extent of my knowledge, there is subaru that ever came with a front LSD.

sorry for the minor hyjacking blackbart

free bump, thanks for the info everyone. I also found this really cool feature called "search". I have been checking it out

I thought the 05 STi had a front LSD.

I also heard somewhere that Subaru had a model in AUS with a front LSD, don't know anything about it though.

You are correct, just looked it up.

i'm pretty sure there were some JDM's with front lsd.

hey mr soul, remember when i drove erics white SS and accidently left with the keys? lol. that car was quick.

yes, erics diff is treating me VERY well. in our recent snow and ice, I had opportunity to play around with it.
I spun tight circles until eventually the car rotated as if on axis. it was glorious. I HIGHLY suggest doing the swap. it makes the difference when you feel it.
