The Cusco Type RS 1 Way Front & Rear Limited Slip Differential is a high-performance drivetrain component designed specifically for Subaru GDB and GRB Impreza models. Engineered to enhance traction and handling, this LSD features a unique spring mechanism that absorbs initial torque, providing a smoother engagement compared to the Type MZ. The Type RS offers adjustable settings, allowing users to select two of three configurations through a simple overhaul, making it versatile for various driving conditions. Its low-friction design results in less power loss, translating to improved acceleration and reduced lap times, especially beneficial for mildly tuned vehicles seeking competitive performance. Constructed with precision components, the Cusco LSD ensures durability and consistent performance under demanding driving scenarios, whether on the street or track.

Designed for Subaru GDB and GRB Impreza models, the Cusco Type RS LSD fits vehicles equipped with the appropriate chassis and drivetrain specifications. It is a direct replacement for the factory differential, providing an upgrade in traction and cornering capabilities. This limited slip differential is ideal for track days, spirited driving, or enhancing overall vehicle stability during aggressive maneuvers. The kit includes the LSD unit itself, with no additional components required for installation, which is typically bolt-on for compatible models. Suitable for use in street, track, or light rally applications, this LSD offers improved grip and handling, helping drivers achieve better control and faster lap times in a variety of driving environments.
