Note- If you have an 89-92 RX7, please let us know if your original diff was open or Limited Slip.

*The 1.5 Way LSD (shown above) is ideal for road racing because under deceleration the diff does not lock up as aggressively, allowing for more control and traction going into turns. The 2 Way LSD (shown below) is ideal for drifting because under deceleration the diff does lock up, allowing for better control when sliding. Kaaz diffs are known for their consistancy and quality. Kaaz LSDs are considered to be far superior to stock LSDs and are widely used in racing and drifting circuits.

Driving styles differ greatly. This is a general definition; there are certainly instances where these definitions will cross over.

**WPC is a coating applied to the LSD to allow for less noise when turning. If you will be using this LSD in a street car and would prefer not be noticed every time you turn, it is recommended that you get WPC coating. However, if you do not mind a loud "banging" noise when turning, WPC coating is not needed.

Torque Sensing Limited Slip ("Torsen LSD")
TORSEN 84-92 Non-turbo MZTX-TORSEN1
93-95 Twin Turbo 27-200E-P099
These very unique torque sensing differential limited slip units are now available for 84 and later RX-7's. They really are the absolute best design for rear traction under ALL different conditions. It is able to transmit far more torque to the wheel that still has traction than any other type of differential. It uses the friction of the worm gear teeth and the thrust washers for the differential limiting force. In comparison with viscous type, or friction type LSD, it has the following benefits:
1) Large bias ratio torque proportioning
2) Less change of bias ratio over time of car use
3) No special differential oil or LSD additives needed
4) Improved overall traction and improved controllability under acceleration.
5) Virtually no change of torque sensing or traction control through differential temperature range.
