viscous slip differential

I have noticed my LSD gets warm and looses it "snap" after a few mins of hard driving. It really pisses me off as I am used to mechanical types

I have noticed my LSD gets warm and looses it "snap" after a few mins of hard driving. It really pisses me off as I am used to mechanical types like on GTR's, S15, etc.

Maybe a simple question...

Without replacing the viscous type with a decent mechanical 1.5way centre, is it possible to change the fluid to make the diff stiffer and more resilient to overheating, slipping?
