    Ok, judging by the thread title, there is some confusion about IRS and LSD.

    IRS is the rear suspension setup, LSD is the diff type.

    Moving along.

    I picked up a 2nd hand VY GTO diff for a grand about 2 years ago and it only had 20thousand km on it.

    Brand new, you could probably just get a LSD centre installed in your current diff, then I was looking around it was around the 1200 mark for a new centre and about 1000 for a reco one.

    Keeping in mind that a reco one will potentially be a bit tighter than a factory holden one.

    VY GTS LSD Diff:
    HSV VY GTS DIFF DIFFERENTIAL LSD REAR CRADEL SS GEN 3 - eBay Other Engines, Components, Engines, Components, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 22-Oct-09 23:12:57 AEDST)

    VY LSD:
    VX VY VZ Holden Commodore LSD 307 Diff - eBay, Other Car Parts, Accessories, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 18-Oct-09 18:10:56 AEDST)

    So you can pick up a 2nd hand one off fleabay for about 500-600.

    Hope that help!

    I pad $700 for a fully reco 3.73 hydratrack LSD, best mod I done to the caprice yet. your probably looking for about 500-1,000 for a lsd depending what ratio you want.

    Yep, that's generally how it works.

    Basically a LSD diff has an extra clutch system in it over a standard non-lsd.

    Install this LSD centre and it's a LSD diff.

    Cheers,
