Want to know if there's anywhere I can find an LSD for my 5 speed trans other than Quaife cause their selling it at 1200$...

And why are they selling F23 LSD at only 400 bucks? what's so different

Owning 2.4L cobalt 06

 

i believe the team green lsd is pretty cheap and works from what i hear.

 

Yeah I heard of them, any website?

 

i want the website too dammit! i googled it and cant find jack...but i have heard of them before and know they exist?? wtf?

 

I emailed Team Green LSD, been waiting now a week and still no answer.

I want a F23 LSD to fit my 2.4L.

If a member of Teem Green LSD can reply I'd appreciate.

 

OBX makes one for only $350. Check Ebay

 

hey check this out man. phantom grip has lsd inserts. they been using them on cars for 15 years now and only 300-400 bucks.

shwing!! but i would still like to hear weather or not team green is still around, they used to be pretty big iirc

 

Im not a big fan of those inserts, they get a limited slip effect by loading the side gears against the differential case.....(none of the parts in your trans are designed to work in that way)

A Quaife while expensive is a properly engineered solution that wont shorten the life of your trans under high loads like a TG or PG insert does.

 

what about the OBX LSD that is pretty much a knockoff of the quaife? is it pretty much the same?

 

its pretty much the same as the quaife except its a 1/4 the price chinese knockoff. LOL

 

If you're trying to skimp on spending the money on the LSD itself, you may not have the funds to get one PROPERLY installed.

In other words, get a Quaife.

 

from what i remember wasn't there something where people were getting these and getting like a rebuild kit for them with new seals/ washers and it helped them out ?

 

well maybe I enjoy pulling my tranny every few months...


but seriously, I would jsut pay the money for a proper setup... its always worth it

 

Depends, at 1200$ + taxes + shipping it to Canada gonna cost me about 1400$. Even tho this LSD can handle 600 000km what does it matter?

OBX LSD for 350$ + taxes + shipping about 500$ for what, 150 000km? I think that's fair enough.

I'd rather put down my trans twice for 500$ than once for 1400$.

This is my first american car, I wonder how much KM it can handle considering our hard winters...

 

well the issue is some cheap lsd's have shattered and taken the tranny out

What about finding a g85 opt trans.... That is what I am looking to do with my ss/sc.

 

if youve got an LSJ car the ideal thing to do is to find an LSD box. MUCH cheaper than installing a diff in your current box. The F23 in the 2.2/2.4 never had an LSD so aftermarket is the only way to go, and F23s are easier/cheaper to install diffs in anyway.

 

what about getting a G85 then using an L200 flywheel

Who of team green did you email?
Brian Wisniewski aka SpeedRacerZ
Tom Smith aka Wrench Monkey
Chris Taetsch aka Taetsch Z-24


Brian normally is the easiest to get in touch with.

Many people have used the TEAM GREEN insert for years, without any problems.

It is basically the same as the phantom grip with stiffer springs.

 

so my guess is that a g85 lsd wont work in a f23?

 

I did msg Brian, he replied me and I quote '' 275usd for LSD insert + shipping to canada ''

please send me an email xxx@gmail.com

I did email him and still waiting for an answer, thats 3 weeks ago.

 

Your email probably went to his junk folder. Email him again and ask. He normally responds with in a few days.....
