21. When purchasing the LSD, you\u2019ll want to also get some new parts to go along with it. This is where being a member of MMS (Mazdaspeed Motorsports) comes in handy\u2026.the parts are not only cheaper, but you are able to order them all online. Shipping has always been incredibly fast.<\/p>

It has also been discussed and documented about the earlier versions of the LSD having a weak point. The rivets used to hold the ring gear to the differential case. The ring gear breaks away from the differential case, rendering the LSD useless. Later and current versions have been upgraded with stronger rivets, but since this transmission will see 99% of it\u2019s use on the track racing, and see close to 200whp, the ring gear and pin have been welded in place.<\/p><\/div><\/div>
