The Cusco LSD Type-RS 1 Way Rear is a high-performance limited slip differential designed for Mazda NA8C, NB6C, and NB8C models from 1994 to 2005. Engineered to improve traction and handling, this LSD features adjustable settings that can be customized with a simple overhaul, allowing drivers to optimize their driving experience. The Type RS model employs springs that absorb initial torque, providing a more gradual engagement compared to the Type MZ. Its lower friction response ensures efficient power transfer to the wheels, reducing power loss and enhancing acceleration. This differential is built for enthusiasts seeking improved lap times and better control on both street and track conditions, offering a balance of performance and durability.

Designed specifically for 1994–2005 Mazda NA8C, NB6C, and NB8C vehicles, the Cusco LSD Type-RS is a direct replacement for the stock differential, suitable for street, track, or spirited driving. It is ideal for drivers looking to enhance cornering grip and overall stability, especially in performance-tuned or mildly modified vehicles. The unit allows for easy installation and adjustment, enabling users to select two of three settings for tailored performance. Compatible with rear-wheel-drive configurations, this LSD is a reliable upgrade for Mazda enthusiasts aiming to maximize traction and driving confidence during aggressive driving or competitive events. The kit includes the differential unit ready for installation.

Overview

A Cusco Limited Slip Differential offers the absolute best in traction. Cusco LSD allow you to choose 2 of 3 settings with each unit just with a simple overhaul. The Type RS springs absorb the initial torque. Compared to the Type MZ, the Type RS s initial torque comes on more gently. The response of the RS has lower friction and in turn, is transfers power to the ground more efficiently. The Low Initial Torque means Less Power Loss. This equates to lower lap times, even for a mildly tuned vehicle. The low pressure on the clutch plates improves durability and lowers chatter. To top it off, the reduced pressure allows the driver to change the LSD oil less frequently. Steady coil movement is assured by special precision springs set in the pressure plate. These springs are made to be resilient and allow for stable operation. Because these plates do not utilize a cone clutch, they do not stick and allow for increased longevity. The Type RS transfers extreme power without slipping and responds quickly with pedal inputs. This differential is ideal for drag racing or going for drifting. Contact Us with any questions..

Cusco recommends the following setups for the following drivetrains.

  • 1 way LSD: Specially suited for front wheel drive cars and AWD front axle cars.Activates under acceleration, and acts as a true LSD when the throttle is off.
  • 1.5 way LSD: Activates under acceleration with less under-steer under deceleration than on a 2 way LSD. Recommended for those who want to reduce under-steer.
  • 2 way LSD: Recommended on rear wheel drive cars and AWD rear axle cars. Activates on both acceleration and deceleration. Recommended for those who prefer aggressive driving and big angle drifting.
