Quaife owners speak up
I have a 03 with a open diff up front, I am asking the quaife guys to speak up on what they think about the product. So I can decide if one is right for me.

it's great... i mean what do you want to hear? it'll make you turn in faster if you're an amature and are on the gas already at turn in. it'll let you trail brake into a turn if you're a pro.
on the track out if you're in need of some help and you're in the right gear, give it just a tad of gas. it works as it should. not getting in the way when it shouldn't. it also keeps you safe in case you lift wheels, won't break any pinion gears and what not cuz it keeps all the wheels moving and it's lift-one-wheel-safe.
basically every 03-04 should have one.

I have the Mitsu LSD on my 03 and love it. I haven't been on a track yet with it but that will come in time once I figure out my UICP/LICP problem.

Other than that, it's one of the best mods you can do for the '03 or '04 evo.

Go with the Mitsu LSD. Much less expensive $900 vs $1500. Yes Quaife gives the lifetime guarantee but unless you are putting down some SERIOUS hp the Mitsu LSD will be fine.
