He has a Quaife. It’s listed in the first post.

Apologies, I didn't notice that.

I still wonder if a clutch type Cusco with the 1.5 setup is more forgiving controlling the rear end when lifting off the accelerator than a gear type quaife LSD?

Probably has a lot to do in how the clutch diff is setup. It can be an aggressive or a gentle depending on the spring and clutch selection.

With my setup when I have got the tail out from applying too much power and breaking traction, as I lift off the power and quickly too, the rear end quickly straightens itself and that's with the VDC button off in wet or dry conditions. I have gotten away with a lot.

Isn't that the yaw sensor taking over?

Not with a 1.5 or 2 way clutch diff.

I didn't realize that he had a clutch diff. But unless the yaw sensor is disabled isn't it still going to try to control a fishtail?
