What is the difference between a 1.5-way and other types of LSDs?

A 1.5-way LSD provides locking force during acceleration and also a degree of locking force during deceleration. This helps stabilize the rear end during cornering. A 1.0-way LSD only locks during acceleration, while a 2.0-way locks during both acceleration and deceleration, sometimes with a more aggressive initial engagement.

What type of fluid should I use with this Cusco LSD?

Limited slip differentials require specific LSD oil to function correctly and prevent damage. It is crucial to refer to the Cusco manufacturer's installation manual or contact their technical support for the recommended fluid type and viscosity for this specific LSD model.

Does this LSD come with all the necessary installation hardware?

This Cusco LSD is designed as a direct replacement for the factory differential. While it includes the core differential unit, it's common for differential installations to require new bearings, seals, and potentially other hardware. Always consult the manufacturer's installation instructions to confirm what is included and what additional parts may be needed.

About this part

Product Details

The Cusco RS1.5 Limited Slip Differential (LSD) is built with a unique clutch plate design that offers a progressive engagement, meaning it locks up more strongly as you apply more throttle. This is a 1.5-way differential, which means it applies locking force during acceleration and also provides some locking force during deceleration, helping to stabilize the rear end during cornering. This specific unit is designed for the 1993-1996 Toyota Supra models equipped with an automatic transmission.

Cusco is well-known for its performance drivetrain components, and this LSD is a prime example. It utilizes a higher number of clutch plates compared to a standard 1.0-way or 2.0-way LSD, allowing for a more finely tuned lock-up characteristic. This translates to improved traction out of corners and a more predictable feel when you're pushing the car. The RS1.5 design aims to provide the benefits of a 2-way LSD (stability on deceleration) without the sometimes harsh or unpredictable engagement that can occur on initial turn-in. It's a well-built unit that can handle the demands of spirited driving.

Installing a limited-slip differential is a significant upgrade for any performance vehicle. It ensures that power is distributed more evenly between the rear wheels, especially when one wheel might lose traction. This particular differential is designed as a direct replacement for your stock unit, though it's always recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions or a qualified mechanic for proper setup and fluid requirements. This LSD is a solid option for Supra owners looking to enhance their car's handling and traction capabilities.
