Type-RS 1-Way Design:

The Type-RS represents Cusco's race-spec LSD line, engineered for maximum performance in motorsport applications. The 1-way design means the LSD locks under acceleration but allows the wheels to rotate at different speeds during deceleration and coasting. This characteristic is ideal for drift and circuit racing where aggressive acceleration traction is needed, but free wheel rotation during braking and corner entry is desired. The 1-way design provides predictable, aggressive locking that experienced drivers can exploit for maximum performance.

Front Differential Application:

This LSD is specifically designed for the BNR32 GT-R's front differential. The GT-R's ATTESA E-TS all-wheel-drive system uses a front LSD to distribute power between the front wheels. Upgrading the front LSD improves front-end traction, especially during corner exit when power is being transferred to the front wheels. The improved front traction works synergistically with the rear LSD to maximize the GT-R's all-wheel-drive performance.

Aggressive Locking Characteristics:

The Type-RS features aggressive locking characteristics designed for racing applications. The high initial torque and strong lock-up provide maximum traction under acceleration. This aggressive behavior is ideal for drift, drag racing, and circuit racing where maximum acceleration traction is critical. The aggressive locking may produce some noise and require adaptation for street driving, but provides uncompromising performance for serious motorsport use.

Clutch-Type LSD Construction:

The LSD uses a clutch-type design with high-quality friction plates that engage to lock the differential. The clutch plates are precision-manufactured to provide consistent locking force and long service life. The clutch-type design allows for adjustability and rebuild capability, ensuring the LSD can be maintained and refreshed as needed. Quality materials and precision machining ensure reliable performance even under extreme racing conditions.

Race-Proven Performance:

Cusco LSDs are proven in professional motorsport worldwide, from D1 Grand Prix drifting to time attack and circuit racing. The Type-RS series represents the pinnacle of Cusco's LSD technology, incorporating lessons learned from decades of racing experience. Professional teams and serious enthusiasts trust Cusco LSDs for their reliability and performance in the most demanding conditions.

Break-In Procedure:

Proper break-in is critical for LSD longevity and performance. Follow Cusco's recommended break-in procedure, which typically involves gentle driving for the first 500-1000 km to allow the clutch plates to properly seat. Avoid aggressive launches, sustained high-speed driving, and drifting during the break-in period. Proper break-in ensures the LSD achieves its full performance potential and maximum service life.
