The Cusco Type RS 2/1.5 Way D&S Limited Slip Differential is a high-performance drivetrain component designed for Subaru WRX models including GDA, GGA, BR9, and BM9. Engineered to optimize traction and handling, this LSD features adjustable settings that can be modified with a simple overhaul, allowing drivers to tailor the differential response to their driving style or track conditions. The Type RS utilizes springs to absorb initial torque, providing a more gentle engagement compared to the Type MZ. Its lower friction design results in improved response and reduced power loss, which can translate into faster lap times even on mildly tuned vehicles. Constructed with precision components, this LSD enhances cornering stability and overall grip, making it an ideal upgrade for performance enthusiasts seeking superior control and durability.

Designed specifically for Subaru WRX models from 2000 to 2007, including GDA, GGA, BR9, and BM9 chassis codes, the Cusco Type RS LSD is a direct replacement for the factory differential. It is suitable for street, track, and spirited driving applications where enhanced traction and handling are desired. The unit offers a 2/1.5 way configuration, providing a balance between street comfort and track performance. Installation involves replacing the existing differential with this bolt-on upgrade, and it includes all necessary components for a straightforward upgrade process. Whether used for daily driving or competitive motorsport, this Cusco LSD delivers consistent, reliable performance with adjustable settings to match your driving needs.

Overview

If you need the absolute best in traction, a Cusco Limited Slip Differential is what you seek. Cusco LSDs allow you to chose 2 of 3 settings with each unit just with a simple overhaul.

In the Type RS, it's springs absorb the initial torque. Compared to the Type MZ, the Type RS' initial torque comes on more gently. The response of the RS has lower friction and in turn, is better.

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 perfect, whether you're drag racing or going for huge drifts.

Three Ways To Set Up Your LSD

  • A 1 Way LSD is specially suited for front wheel drive cars and the front axle of AWD cars. It activates only under acceleration, allowing the better handling when you lift off the throttle. This is a great way to improve lap times.
  • A 1.5-way LSD activates fully under acceleration, but does not activate fully under deceleration. This decreases understeer compared to a 2-way LSD. This is recommended for drivers having difficulty with 2-way LSD understeer, or the braking on a one-way LSD.
  • A 2-way LSD is recommended on rear wheel drive cars and AWD rear axle cars.. Because it activates on both acceleration and deceleration, it is recommended for those who prefer hot driving action and big angle drift.
