mazdaspeed LSD
 
i just got it installed in my 323 and I fully recommend it as one of the first steps if your are serious about performance.

So what parts were required? How much did it cost to do the install? Do you have Part #?

BobbyCoffins July-12th-2003 02:35 PM

all that is required is the old ring gear and a bolt-kit from Mazdaspeed. I got money transmission rebuilt and the LSD installed and it came to $2000cdn all together. The LSD was about $600cdn and the bolt-kit is something like $100.

The bolts and nuts also have to be machined down to fit in the trans. I don't have a part number, I'll check the bill though maybe it has one. The shop I deal with found on in California and ordered it, apparently it was one of the only ones in the states at the time. I guess they are stocking these things in great numbers.

itzkcatz July-12th-2003 11:25 PM

Awesome. Is there anyway to get a howto on this subject?...Jon

BobbyCoffins July-13th-2003 12:06 AM

i wouldn't know enough to write the how-to since i didn't do all the work, the shop just told me the basics of what they did. Other than the ring gear, apparently it mated perfectly.

Just my 2 cents.

Your probly right, But i hate paying people to do stuff to my car.

itzkcatz July-13th-2003 09:44 AM

No way. I would never pay someone to swap my motor in. We are throwing a B20B into a Del sol right now so my garage is packed tight.

ne3ek July-16th-2003 11:27 AM

LSD, was it out of a 2003.5 car? and the old ring gear from the current tranny?
