Hehe, I guess that's that "JDM dust" you talked about in the other thread. 
More like LSD
(the halucinogen)

I came across this auction on Ebay and the guy selling it said it removed from a JDM S2000 and the confusions start from there 
It just got me thinking that mine and his is different. If he just say that "the LSD was removed from an S2000" then I wouldn't be confuse.
I know that all S2000 are made in Japan. What I wanting to know is the S2000 that export to US and the S2000 that built for Japan, what are the different ?
I know the Japan S2000 has clear headlights and markers, what else Engine...Drivetrain...Performance...any ?

Im going FI soon so I thought I could use a good aftermarket LSD. I have heard about Kaaz and know they made one the S. But I have good experiences with Quaife and wondering if they make one for the S.

If you are going FI, I post a thread on in the FI boards asking what LSD's those guys are using. I'm sure a lot of them are on stock, but you'll probably get better responses there from people that have tried it.

Aftermarket LSD don't consider daily driving though. You might end up getting one that's higher maintainence, and whines like an injured dog. Honda gave you a good LSD with that car....you don't usually hear bad things about Honda's LSD assemblies.
But you have more than enough choices with the LSD - ATS, OS Giken, Cusco, KAAZ (junk in my opinion). Keep in mind a stronger LSD designed to enhance tracion might require you to buy other things down the road (axles, reinforced diff housing, diff fluids.) Every mod you make exposes the next weakest link...

There is a difference between 1 way, 1.5 way and 2 way LSDs. While the stock LSD is fine for everyday driving it is only a 1 way LSD. Aftermarket manufacturers make 1.5 way and 2 way LSDs which can theoretically help in fast cornering situations.
