Now i could get an S2 box, for about 150 quid, or i could bang in a non LSD one for 30 quid - which will have had an easier life. Question is, will i miss my LSD? How well is likely to be working after 150,000 miles anyway?! I know without the LSD you get a nicer turn in, but how will it effect straight line traction?
