Just to confirm to the S2 Auto owners (not S1), the S15 Helical LSD bolts straight in, uses same shafts etc. Fitted yesterday.

Great :)

Can you tell us please how much was the unit ?

Also, how does it feel now ? any real differences when you drive the car ?

It feels the same, no change for normal driving, just nice to know its there if ever its required, and good thing about the helical is that there is nothing to wear out like viscous and mechanical. Pretty hard to break traction with the 4wd, have to wait for some slippery conditions ie snow in Brisbane. Bought it on Yahoo Auctions Japan (japanese wife) cost about $150+100 freight. Installed for $200 at Diff lapping in Brisbane.

That sounds like a bargain... hope it doesn't screw with attesa-ets too much. LSD would be nice...

      Excuse me, but 2) does apply 1) Would also apply if you consider how much is spent in the alternatives. Also there's the option of 3), buy one pre-built that you can put your family in (it's me, it's my car)   That said, I went on a ~500km drive the other day. I didn't use anything more adventurous than 3rd/4th gear at about ~3000RPM and 50% throttle and I was going as fast as anyone has any sense doing on a public road, with enough grip to the point where I didn't want to go any faster. I was obviously under the limit of the current car etc etc. MX5 with 2.5 N/A to achieve the same speed would be more fun for any road scenario. Maybe consider cams. I wouldn't boost it. The use case is just not there and it won't actually make the car more enjoyable unless you really do plan on wringing gears from 1st to 3rd (at least) at 100% WOT on a public road to 150+kmh.

      Great if: 1. You had all of the money for everything else that is required  2. Lived in a country where you could actually do this and drive it legally on the road Sadly, neither applies to me As for the turbo, I am having second thoughts, mainly for engineering/registration legality reasons and insurance  Not saying I've finished doing stupid things that I probably should do to the MX5, but boost, and V8 engine swaps isn't on the cards Strange, but true

      Yes shipping here can be a pain, was about to purchase timing belt replacement kit, but it tends to get expensive due to shipping (and customs if importing from non-EU which the UK now falls under).
