Lsd
 
Is it true that the MSP LSD for manual trannies only? Will it work on a protege sedan with an auto tranny? If so, where can I go to get one and how much would I be looking to spend?

no.

steve_protege February-24th-2004 07:57 AM

No what? No its not true the LSD is for manual trannies? No that it won't work on the Protege sedan? Gotta help me out here.

mazdaspeed lsd wouldnt work for a 2000 DX auto or manual..there is a quaife lsd for the f series tranny in the manual, but as far as i know there are no lsd's avail for auto 3rd gens

But the LSD by Quaife is like a butt-load of money. There has to be some other one available. I don't want to do all these mods and spin my wheels because of no availble LSD to keep my wheels to the pavement. If the Quaife is the only one available, where can I get the LSD at a cheaper price besides Corksport.com?

macdaddyslomo February-24th-2004 10:57 AM

steve please read my post...the quaife is available for the f series MANUAL...there are no LSD's for 3rd gen auto's..are you planning on doing a auto to manual swap??

steve_protege February-24th-2004 11:52 AM

Sorry bout the mistake there. I must of read right over the F-series tranny thing. I was toying with the idea of doing the swap, but Ive heard its a lot of work to do. Because of my finances, I don't envision the swap getting done. So if no LSD is available for the 3rd Gen Pro with auto tranny, what option (if any) do I have for an LSD?

macdaddyslomo February-24th-2004 01:19 PM

contact quaife..otherwise sorry can't help you..there isnt anything off-the shelf right now to the best of my knowledge

steve_protege February-24th-2004 03:45 PM

Is there a website, e-mail or phone number I could get to ask them?

THEGOLDPRO February-24th-2004 08:15 PM

do you think you will make enouf power to spin the shit outa your auto???? what are you planed mods?

steve_protege February-24th-2004 08:32 PM

I heard its best to get an LSD if you plan on getting a turbo. I hope to have one in the near future so I figure in order to keep my wheels glued to the pavement and not sliding out or hydroplaning, then an LSD would be a wise investment.
