About this part

Product Details

This is the OS Giken Super Lock Limited Slip Differential (LSD) for the 1998 to April 2004 Toyota Altezza SXE10 models equipped with a manual transmission. If you're looking to significantly improve your car's traction and handling, especially during spirited driving or on the track, an LSD is a critical component. It ensures that power is distributed more effectively between the rear wheels, preventing one wheel from spinning freely when the other has grip.

OS Giken's Super Lock LSD is known for its advanced design, which offers a high degree of locking action. This means it can provide near-100% lockup under acceleration, which is fantastic for putting power down out of corners. Unlike some other LSDs that can be jerky or unpredictable in daily driving, the Super Lock design is engineered to be smooth and progressive, making it a great choice for a car that sees both street and track use. The internal components are well-made, designed to handle the stresses of performance driving and provide consistent performance over time. Installation involves replacing the factory differential, which is a moderately involved job that typically requires specialized tools and knowledge of drivetrain components.

When installing this LSD, it's important to use the correct differential fluid recommended by OS Giken to ensure proper break-in and long-term performance. This unit is designed specifically for the manual transmission Altezza SXE10, so ensure your vehicle matches these specifications before purchase. Proper setup and fluid are key to getting the most out of this high-performance differential.
