I was told (by people I trust) for road racing that the Kaaz was the best LSD on the market. Since the car is 90% track use, I went with that recommendation.

Just to give you a ball park feel, when you were running the stock gears w/ the 24.3" tires it was equivalent to about 4.19 gears now with the 4.44's and the 24.3" tires you'll be equivalent to 4.53 gears ........ overall, after the smoke clears, you'll be geared down by about 10% as compared to a stock S2000 (stock gears and tires).

Yeah, w/ the 4.77's and the 24.3's I think you'd of run out of RPM around 137 mph give or take ....... us slow guys would have been "reeling you in" on the front straight for sure

Where can you buy a new rear end for $1000? I thought they were more like $3000.
