I think the LSD's are quite hard to come by in Oz mate, you best try places in the US or Germany. Others who have bought them can chime in :)

Ahhhh, so you're the one who ended up buying it!! A few of us in perth had been wondering where it went. Good to see it didnt end up over east!

Ur dub looks fantabolous, you must definately come on a cruise with us sometime!!

Oh and LSD's arent common locally, you'll have to look to europe or the US i'm afraid.

cheers matty:smile:

when shes back up and running ill definitely be keen for a cruise.

Awesome, having another vr6 in the ranks would be swell!

Yeah if the box is out then its as better time as any to put a diff in.
The most common brands are Quaife, Peloquin and Wavetrac. They all go for about $1000AUD.

Can't see the pics at school, is this the burgandy one that was on Carsales a few months back? Unless I"m mistaken, very clean car and grats with the purchase :) Have you driven a standard VR6, if so how does this one compare?

ive been looking on ecs tuning and i can get a Peloquin LSD for $1040us delivered.
my only issue now is finding someone to install it lol.

and for dell this is the first vr6 ive driven so i wouldnt know how it compares.

You're way way south, else I'd suggest golfwagen. Perhaps Quattro motors in burswood might be a go?
