OS Giken Lotus Elise/Exige (MT Only) Super Lock LSD

This listing is for the OS Giken Super Lock Limited Slip Differential (LSD) specifically designed for manual transmission Lotus Elise and Exige models. When you install this unit, you're getting the differential itself, ready to be integrated into your drivetrain. This is a significant upgrade for drivers looking to enhance their vehicle's traction and handling characteristics, especially during spirited driving or on the track.

The Super Lock LSD from OS Giken is known for its ability to provide a high degree of locking action, which means it effectively distributes power to both rear wheels. This is particularly beneficial when accelerating out of corners, as it helps prevent wheelspin and puts more power down to the pavement. Unlike some other LSDs, the Super Lock design is engineered to offer a smooth engagement, minimizing the jerky or unpredictable behavior that can sometimes be associated with limited-slip differentials. This makes it a well-built component that contributes to a more controlled and confidence-inspiring driving experience. The internal mechanism is designed for durability and consistent performance, even under demanding conditions.

Installing an LSD like this is a substantial modification that changes how your car puts power down. It's a popular choice for Elise and Exige owners who participate in track days or autocross events, but it also offers improved grip for street driving in challenging conditions. Because this is a specialized drivetrain component, it's important to ensure your vehicle has a manual transmission, as this LSD is not compatible with automatic gearboxes. Proper installation by a qualified mechanic is recommended to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
