Three ways to set your CUSCO limited slip differentials: 1
way, 1.5 way and 2 way.
1 way LSD:
Specially suited for front wheel drive cars and AWD
front axle cars. Activates under acceleration, and acts
as a true LSD when the throttle is off. This CUSCO 1 way
LSD will improve lap times without a doubt.
1.5 way LSD:
Activates under acceleration while the under-steer under
deceleration is less than on a 2 way LSD. Recommended
for those who have a hard time with under-steer.
Two way LSD:
Recommended on rear wheel drive cars and AWD rear axle
cars. Activates on both acceleration and deceleration.
Recommended for those who prefer aggressive driving and
big angle drifting.
One Limited Slip Differential, Two Ways to Enjoy!
With
CUSCO's LSD, you may change the setting during your
overhaul with no additional parts required.

The
Low Initial TYPE RS
Low
power loss means better lap times for even the mild
tuned of cars
Chattering is kept low
Improved durability as
clutch plates are low pressured
The LSD efficiency is
higher with smoother oil flow between plates.
The
Benfits
According to CUSCO'S in
house research, initial torque is 50 to 70% lower compared
to the conventional cone plate type LSD enabling lower drive
friction and better response.
The
Type RS's Durability
Special precision
springs, set in the pressure plate, assure steady coil
movement
Clutch plates do not
stick together like convetional cone plate type LSDs.
Therefore less clutch plate wear or deterioration
occurs.
The Benefits
The Type RS LSD had proved
to be capable of competition use in the All Japan Gymkhana
Championship without overhauling a single time during the
season. With all drivers and teams finishing with good or
championship reuslts at the end of the season.
Uncompromising Characteristics of the Type RS LSD:
Reacts to throttle work
directly
Transfers high power
without slippage
No clutch slipping in
0-400 meter accelerations (1/4 mile competition)
Transfer steady power
in long drifts
The Type MZ has Evolved!
The Type MZ LSD had been greatly improved using most parts
that comprise the Type RS. Its has evolved as well through
countless R+D tires, tests and races to create the most
balanced LSD for your specific use.
The Oil Through System
uses the same forged parts used in the Type RS. The Type MZ
differs in the way the initial torque is developed.
Increased MZ
plates!
The clutch plates have
been increased from eight to ten plates one each side
increasing the LSD performance. It responds more to the high
power with higher durability.
Maintaining Stability And Performance
Cusco oil through system enables stability in high
performance LSDs.
CUSCO's unique Oil Through
System enables better oil flow inside the LSD for better
efficiency. The casing made from CUSCO's unique technology
allows the oil to flow from the wide end, to the pressure
rings, then to the MZ clutch plates for efficeint
lubrication. Making the LSD more stalbe and durable!
This was only possible
with CUSCO's unique technology in manufacturing chromoly
steel casing and gears that enabled a higher level of
durability and a better flow of oil due to the large oil
openings.
Improved Strength And Reliability
Highly resistant parts with extreme efficient manufacturing.
CUSCO's Oil Through System was possible by using high
quality chromoly steel. The internal side gears and pinion
gears used are precise forged parts that enable compact yet
durable gears that are able to cope with high horsepower
applications. This increases the internal oil capacity as
well as the number of MZ clutch plates that take the load
off each plate for further durability.
Response And Durablity Greatly Improved
CUSCO's unique and original groove tehcnology.CUSCO's
MZ plate grooves are cut radially enabling instant oil
movement, thus improving efficiency and durability. Pressure
ring surface is polished for an even contact with the MZ
plate, and with CUSCO's orignal design Oil Through System.
This enhances the effieciency and performance of this LSD.
