actually, isn't it just being stupid? That's more expensive than a junkyard VLSD, and maybe more expensive than a Welded diff

buy it and see how it works. You can learn a good lesson from it. You get what you pay for and dont be cheap with stuff u put on your car. Only cheap mod that have seemed to work fine would be a welded diff.

Sound better?

there is no point to weld a diff... me and some freinds tried it on a Rustang(mustang) the gears will weld but the welds crack apart even from the lighest driving. we opened the diff and welded everything that touched and even welded some steel strips onto the gears... but it still cracked like crusty bread.. later we put like half an inch of extra steel into the diff.. it looked like it was fool proof but the power from the four cylinder rustang ripped the welds aprat again... and we ended up buying a junk yard diff to replace the ruined one... it may work on some diffs but running the car hard... it will crack...

ERRRRR wrong again! http://www.shockdrifting.com/weldlocd.html
educate yourself

Just because you guys suck and welding doesn't mean a GOOD welded diff sucks.

Then don't get welded! Get Phantom grip for your diff. Then when it breaks and owns you I'll laugh because my welded diff will still be working perfectly fine.
Welded diff half assed?

That car doesn't look very half assed, but is still rocking a welded diff.

What exactly makes a welded diff half assed to you? You obviously have no clue what your talking about because you didn't even bother to do a search on phantom grip. So how would you know if welded is "half assed"

EDIT: I refuse to believe that you serached. Found this on the very first page of the search.
