The Cusco RS 1 Way Limited Slip Differential is a high-performance drivetrain component designed to enhance traction and handling for Subaru WRX STI GDB/GRB models from 2008 to 2015. Engineered with Cusco's advanced technology, this LSD features adjustable settings that allow users to select two of three configurations through a simple overhaul. The Type RS springs provide a smooth initial torque response, engaging more gradually compared to the Type MZ, resulting in lower friction and more efficient power transfer to the wheels. This design minimizes power loss, leading to improved lap times and better overall performance, especially on the track or spirited driving scenarios.

Specifically compatible with 2008-2015 Subaru WRX STI GDB and GRB models, this rear LSD is a direct upgrade or replacement for the factory differential. It is suitable for street, track, or performance driving, offering enhanced grip and stability during aggressive maneuvers. Installation involves replacing the existing differential with this bolt-on unit, which includes the necessary components for a straightforward upgrade. The Cusco LSD is ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved traction, reduced power loss, and customizable settings to optimize their vehicle’s handling characteristics across various driving conditions.

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.
