torsen diff? all i know is LSD

A torsen limited slip differential uses uniquely cut helical gears to transfer torque from one wheel to the other through the differential case... the downside is that the MkIII Torsen diff has a stress fracture point in the case where the helical gears are held. Juicing the boost with some sticky tires usually busts the ever lovin' sh*t out of it. Lots of people break them, anyway. IIRC, stock torsen LSD's are a JDM thing :naughty:

The clutch LSD (which I think is what you get on all USDM cars equipped with LSD) is 'virtually' indestructable. Not too many people break the diff as a result of a weakness in the diff case (i.e. too much power), usually the crush sleeve in the pinion (?) is the culprit (the pinion moves slightly causing the gears to not line up properly... hit the gas and CRUNCH).

This information is coming straight outta my ass so don't take it as gospel :biglaugh:

The car looks awesome as it is. Are the tails tinted? Mine don't look like that in the day time, maybe they look like that because it's dark out. Can't wait to check out your cars. I have only seen ONE mkiv in toronto, DjDiablo's near my house. I see mk3's all the time though.

What year is your aristo? My brother just picked one up.

This might sound silly, but from what I could see on the video in the interior.....is that a blue clock?

they are JDM tails which are darker ;)

I'ts not a blue clock just a picture affect I guess or maybe the tint?

I have a 91 airsto i bought it in the month after it was leagalized.
