This video is your one-stop guide to understanding the key differences between open diff and LSD. We'll navigate through exhilarating drifts and burnouts, showcasing how each differential performs under extreme conditions. Ever wondered how open diff donuts stack up against those performed with an LSD? We've got you covered!
By the end of this short but comprehensive video, you'll have a clear understanding of the open diff vs limited slip debate, and why one might choose to convert from an open diff to LSD.

Funny enough I have a open diff Z4 of the same generation
the smile on your face tells it all haha
Exactly😄
Looks like there are different kinds of driving habits for this device. First Type: They want a LSD to do a bunch of drifting and doughnuts (i.e., things that a LSD is not really best suited to do). Second Type: They want to use the LSD to help accelerate out of corner and are not into drifting or doughnuts. My $0.015 worth, this device is more suited to those who are the Second Type of user.
please make a conversion kit for the open c32 amg :))
Yes please!!
No counter steer on the open diff would like to see comparison where there is counter steering on both diffs
What to countersteer when you can't kick out rear end??
@@RacingDiffs you can kick it out.
turn the wheel all the way left stationary rev it up let go of the clutch and start driving in a circle build speed then kick the clutch and counter steer the wheel its not easy to control because the diff is open but you can counter steer
how can I understand if my z4 e85 keeps a 188k or L? Thank you
E85 uses L carrier unit paired with K-type bearings. Some sort of hybrid. But if you are choosing LSD conversion kit, then L would be the proper choice.
Can you please send me the installation link.. can this be done at home do it yourself. 2006 bmw z4 3.0 si? What parts do I need?
You need 188L LSD conversion set. Please check the link below.

dosent look like that lsd is working very well far more smoke on the inside tire still showing that its by far the one whit the most torque split
This is the LSD conversion set designed to be smooth for everyday usage. Doesn't have too much preload, so it doesn't make chattering noise. For this amount of money (250ish eur), it is the best product in the world.
limited.. slip diff. it’s still not gonna be perfect
Is it possible to add more preload?
@@JayYang0327 You could probably shim the springs a little
@JayYang0327 no it's not possible. It is already the highest preload this system can provide.
2002-2004 C32 amg?
Naw dawg tf?
That’s clearly an alpha Roman g2.2 994 tf u on abt?
Do you still need to shorten the flanges by 4mm like with the older kits? or not necessary anymore? i have a 1992 e36 318i, guessing ill need the 168mm set?
Yes, shortening is still necessary. But if you don't have access to the lathe machine, you can simply cut off 4mm with a hand grinder. And you're right, you need 168mm kit for your car.👍🏻
@@RacingDiffs thanks guys just placed an order. keen to get started
Update?
are Wavetrac & Quaife have the same performance or one of them is better?
Both are top from what I researched, and for normal drifting and spirited street driving the Q would be more than enough and much cheaper.
If you track your car hard and have tire lift in corners, the WT would have the upper hand.
So they actually produce Z4/Z5's which don't have a limited slip differential??? :O
You'll be shocked when I tell you that none of them except M model don't have LSDs. Not even as an optional.
@@RacingDiffs im p sure my z3 has an LSD or am i wrong
It might have it from the factory. That is not the case with Z4 that has it only in M version.
Looks better than open butbstill jot good enough for drifting 😩
Welded is good enough, k?
Lock the diff on your daily then bro
why would they even sell an rwd sports car with an open diff? Those where expensive cars back then. What a stupid way, to cut costs.
Exactly. 👍🏻 the only reason I can come up with is protecting M3 and giving it extra exclusivity.
Do you guys ship to USA?
Sure, we do. DHL will bring the package to your door in 3 days.
Its 100%?
No, it is 25% progressive lock. Designed to be smooth for everyday usage
My g35 open diff and swings like that LSD 😭
What make diff?

it took two hours to switch the driver! 😆
It took 2 hours to install LSD conversion kit.
It still looks the same? Can you please post straight line burnouts. Or track corning where this would be most beneficial..
Except first video is a one wheel peel, and the second isn't 😅
You have a series of videos on this topic.

I need the video that tells me how to install this exactly.. without taking it to a shop to do ..
Sure. Please check our How to play list.

I would’ve just went with a welded diff honestly cheaper and better results.
On tarmac? Seems like a great way to wear your tires and get understeer
Open or not , it's just the driver that cant do simple donuts 😞🍩 lol
People this stupid thingy have destroyed too many differentials if you want LSD buy an LSD it cost around 1000-1500 €/$ because it's a complex system either clutch plated or mechanical (torsen) that should be a bit cheaper. Just look at the design there is a constant friction between the gears in your diff and these two metal pieces with a spring for $250... Look in china these were selling for $50 and I just laughed who would be so dumb to install it. Now there is a whole company and marketing built around this scam. Many people are ashamed to talk about their experience but there are a ton of videos on YT people present it as a working perfect thing and 2 months later they realise their diff is destroyed with all the metal pieces grinded out of their diff or gears broken locked the whole diff so it could be dangerous so if you have this installed and selling your car please don't lie it is an LSD cause someone can get killed.
Mine works great in my z4 e85. It's of course nothing compared to a 100% lock but 30% is enough at the moment for my Budget.
