Video evidence of why LSD rock

I wish I could do this with the 335...

I think the rear diff can be swapped out for the quaife, not sure about the front.

If I remember right, our transfer case isn't geared (a-la center diff), but uses friction... which I bet would wear out. Correct me if I'm wrong.

AWD + massive power = awesomeness.

I don't know why you would want to change out the diff in an AWD car.
Doesn't make sense to me.

That too...

It's definitely a good target for tuners though. I hope things like this will be an option for us in the next year or two.

My bad. I saw this about a week ago on an AWD forum. I thought you guys would appreciate seeing it too.

Anyways, sorry for the re-post. Feel free to delete.

Cheers,

All wheel drift > All wheel burnouts.

BTW, up until this video was reposted 30,000 times on every car forum on the net I really had no idea that you could even drift an AWD car like that. I remember seeing a few years back an orange STI drift car that had a RWD conversion on it so I always assumed that it wasn't possible to really drift an AWD car, but I guess with over 500whp you can. I'm an AWD noob.

My evo IX MR in stock condition could AWD drift.
Basically every time I drove home at 2am (and no one in sight) I'd drift pretty much every turn I felt safe on (all the ones with grass/gravel on the shoulder instead of curb/trees).

Although I'm glad I got the 335.
1) My gf likes it a lot more. (happy gf = happy self)
2) Easier to make a nice car fast, then a fast car nice.
3) Evo is helluva loud inside. After a 30 minute drive talking with someone, I'd get out and my throat would be a little sore from having to speak up.
4) LAG. rolling start from 5 mph or so, I could pretty much count to 4 or 5 before it pulled hard. That car required tons of clutch control to keep the power on at low speeds.

I had 05 STi and you could control the Diff Bias with a switch. You could do 65% rear/ 35% front. 50/50 lock both diffs etc.
