What is the difference between a 1.5-way and a 1-way LSD?

A 1-way LSD primarily locks during acceleration, while a 1.5-way LSD locks during acceleration and partially during deceleration. This 1.5-way design helps improve stability under braking and cornering by providing some torque bias even when you're not on the throttle.

What is the benefit of a multi-plate clutch design like the one in this Cusco LSD?

The multi-plate clutch system, with its 32 locking surfaces, allows for a more aggressive and consistent locking action. This translates to better grip and power delivery to both wheels, especially during hard acceleration and cornering.

Does this differential come with all necessary installation hardware?

Typically, limited slip differentials require specialized installation and may need additional components such as new bearings, seals, and specific gear oil. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions or a professional mechanic to determine all required parts for a complete installation.

About this part

Product Details

The Cusco RS 1.5-Way Limited Slip Differential (LSD) is built with a unique clutch plate design that offers two distinct locking characteristics: a 1.5-way lock during acceleration and a 1-way lock during deceleration. This advanced setup is specifically tuned for the SR20DE engine found in the 1991-1994 Nissan Sentra SE-R, providing a significant improvement in traction and handling for performance driving.

This differential utilizes a multi-plate clutch system, featuring 32 locking surfaces (32V) for robust engagement. The RS model incorporates Cusco's signature cam design, which allows for a smoother transition between locked and unlocked states compared to traditional LSDs. This means you get the benefit of a locked differential when you need maximum grip out of corners, but it disengages more freely on deceleration, reducing unwanted understeer and making the car more predictable. The internal components are made from well-built steel, designed to withstand the stresses of spirited driving and track use.

Installing a limited slip differential like this one changes how power is distributed to your wheels. Instead of sending all the power to the wheel with the least traction, an LSD ensures that both wheels receive torque, significantly improving acceleration and cornering grip. For the 1991-1994 Sentra SE-R, this LSD is a popular choice for those looking to enhance their vehicle's performance capabilities, especially when paired with other drivetrain upgrades. It's designed to fit the 32V transmission configuration for these specific models.
