not something you really want for a every day car unless your a really experienced driver you can come unstuck real quick if you dont pay attention

I'm here!


Not sure what you want my help with, the spool in number 2 will be fine. Most Transmission and gearbox places sell them, and i think someone even said they got one from sprints one time.

Please before you go out having fun, learn to drive with a spool, as the charicteristics of your car will change. Benifit is though, once you learn it, it'll do the same thing EVERY time, no matter what.

Just so the other people in the thread know, i use a spool on my daily and have for years, and highly recommend it.

what are the benefits of a mini spool?

 

[STEALTHY™]

Depends what your comparing it to?

if comparing it to sliced bread, well, there the best thing since sliced bread

but in comparing them to other diffs, its all a matter of opinion really.

I say they give better traction than an open wheels and an LSD, yet LSD lovers will say there better.
Spools are good for predictability, you know what it'll do every time, no matter what. An average priced LSD will do the same, for about 3 clutch drops, then it'll slip again. and lets face it, no-one here has $2000 to buy a bottom of the range KAAZ lsd.

hence why a spool is so popular, only downside is there illegal, even though there safer.
