Hey guys, my clutch is on its way out, and I figure I may as well get the gearbox rebuilt (3rd crunches sometimes) and get an LSD installed while I'm at it. It'll save a ton in labour down the track when both give way.
 
I was wondering what people would recommend for both a replacement clutch (doesn't need to be heavy duty, car's pretty stock) and what kind/brand of LSD?
 
any advice is greatly appreciated :)
 
Cheers!

Either hunt for gen3 na box with lsd or the expensive route is a quaife atb.

cheers, I didn't think of getting a Gen 3 box. I expect NA ones will be a little harder to find. eBay is swamped with turbo ones, but that's not much use to me...
 
I was think of just a stock Exedy, but the engine has a decent amount of torque, so maybe a heavy duty one would be the best bet.
 
Quaife was my other option, which would be kinda cool, but cash is the key here
we'll see how it goes
 
Thanks for the advice :)

While the gearbox is out while you have the syncro's replaces (gear crunching), you may as well do the bearings and the diff. After you buy a second hand one then gamble on it not having the syncro's worn (big gamble), its worth fixing the original unit.
 

Is anyone able to please provide a link to the quaife LSD? Having trouble finding a proper spot to check out! =( I've got a '90 sw20 n/a

With the S54 NA gearbox, the cheapest way is to buy a ZZW30 factory Helical LSD. It fits right into the S54 without any hassles. You can source them from the UK <$500 shipped, just speak to Paul Woods from TwoBrutal or Dick from MR2ROC.

The helical/Torsen should behave essentially the same as a Quaife ATB correct?

If you need a clutch let me know can get you a heavy duty exedy clutch kit for 330$ shipped to you.
