Cusco LSD MZ 2WAY(1.5&2) BMW M3 E36

Cusco is well-known for making high-performance drivetrain components, and their limited slip differentials (LSDs) are a popular choice for drivers looking to improve traction and handling. This particular unit, the MZ 2WAY(1.5&2), is designed to work with your BMW M5 from 1991-1993 and 2000-2003. An LSD helps put power down more evenly to both rear wheels, especially during cornering or when one wheel loses grip. This means less wheelspin and more forward momentum, making your car feel more planted and responsive.

The MZ 2WAY(1.5&2) designation means this differential can operate in both 1.5-way and 2-way modes. In 1.5-way mode, it locks under acceleration and partially locks under deceleration, which is great for general driving and track use. Switching to 2-way mode provides full locking under both acceleration and deceleration, offering maximum traction for aggressive driving situations. This dual-mode capability gives you flexibility depending on your driving needs. The differential is built with robust internal components designed for durability under demanding conditions.

Installing a limited slip differential is a significant upgrade for your M5. It's a job that requires specialized knowledge and tools, so we recommend having it installed by a qualified mechanic. This differential is designed to be a direct replacement for your stock unit, but it's important to ensure all related drivetrain components are in good condition before installation. Proper installation and fluid maintenance are key to getting the most out of this performance differential.
