There was/is the grandpa stigma attached to it and luckily enough I don't give a fck what others think! Try and add some qualification to your comment; better for who and under what circumstances? That's what the grown-ups are actually discussing in this thread. That's one reason why I want it. I can't be bothered worrying about getting pulled over all the time by the popo and my right foot can be a little jerky, haha, so it would just attract more attention. And I figure it's not going to be 'innapropriate' driving out to clients where the XR6T may not suit in a few years.

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 30/04/12 04:38 AM Share Posted 30/04/12 04:38 AM (edited) Funny stuff on this topic.A good slippy is worth about two large and upwards.The Std LSD in these cars is very very limited. It's not a locker. It's a very limited slip diff.I wonder how many are driving round not knowing it is not locking the other wheel after a little bit of punishment.And the irony of life if you punish the single leg it locks upCracks me up Edited 30/04/12 04:38 AM by XR09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old_mate Member 767 Member For: 18y 9m 6d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 30/04/12 02:05 PM Share Posted 30/04/12 02:05 PM The single spinner does hook up better and safer in the wet.It is a lot quiter and less prone to driveline SHUNT. Something the market the G is set at they wont tollerate.And causes a heap less understeer.The single also locks up both wheels when abused.In saying that the semi locker is great in the dry. The truetrac is a lot quiter when fitted with a new superpro comfort diff bush.The Kaaz is noisey to begin, then goes quite for a while and gets very noisey again with age.sh*t I'd hate to own an FG with an LSD if the shunting is WORSE...Interesting note on the single pegger lighting both when abused, I had thought my car pegged both quite a few times of late and I took it out just before and yep, abusing it spins both.I might just hold off on the LSD now, I keep forgetting I bought the G6 because it was a little more sensible and somewhat upmarket whilst still hauling like a shower of sh*t when provoked.

Spinning one wheel does not do much damage. But I would be careful buying a thrashed Xr6 with a LSD.
