LSD on a standard Mk1 Campaign

Hey guys,

I have lot of wheelspin on take off and when going hard into corners/roundabouts in my standard 1.8GTI.  Is there a LSD that I can bolt straight on that would help with my traction problems?

Quaife, Gripper, Kaaz, Peloquin and a few others. I have a Gripper in mine. The difference out of a slippy junction is amazing. You can still wheel spin but the car just goes anyway.

how much will it cost roughly?

About 550 for the diff plus the cost of fitting, trouble is that fitting requires a full gearbox stripdown, normal practice is to pay for a gearbox rebuild (new bearings and seals) and have the diff fitted at the same time.. you may also need a set of bolts for the ring gear which are about 100 (some diffs come with them)..

So realistically its going to cost a grand.

Personally its the best grand you can spend on a mk1, the difference it makes is night and day…
