Cusco LSD MZ1.5 NA8 Miata **Special Order** No Returns

The Cusco MZ 1.5-way limited slip differential (LSD) for your 1994-2005 Mazda Miata is built with a unique clutch pack design that offers a distinct engagement feel. This unit is specifically tuned for the NA8 chassis, meaning it's designed to work seamlessly with your car's existing drivetrain components. Unlike a 2-way LSD, which engages on both acceleration and deceleration, this 1.5-way unit primarily engages on acceleration and provides a smoother, less intrusive feel during deceleration. This makes it a popular choice for drivers who want improved traction and cornering performance without the harshness that can sometimes come with other LSD types.

Cusco is well-known for its performance drivetrain components, and this differential is a testament to that reputation. It's constructed with robust materials and features a precise clutch mechanism that ensures consistent power delivery to both rear wheels when needed. The 1.5-way action is achieved through a specific ramp angle design within the differential, which dictates how the clutch plates engage. This design is a key factor in its ability to enhance grip during spirited driving, whether you're on the track or carving up your favorite back roads. Installation will involve removing the rear differential housing, swapping out the factory open differential for this unit, and then reinstalling the housing. It's a job that requires specific tools and knowledge of drivetrain components, so it's often best left to a professional mechanic.

Because this is a special order item, please be aware that returns are not accepted. This ensures that you receive a brand-new, untouched unit directly from the manufacturer. If you're looking to significantly improve your Miata's handling and put power down more effectively, especially out of corners, this Cusco LSD is a solid option to consider.
