Mike, sorry to change the subject, but what's ur opinion about the OS Giken vs the Carbonetic LSD. Based on streetability and track performance, which is the best??? Just for clarification, I drive my Z mostly on the road with other people coming and do spend many weekends on the track. I was leaning toward the OS Giken, but after seeing ur review and other comments, I'm reconsidering. What should I choose????

Both are great options, but after driving the Berk Technology 135i with the OS Giken, I would probably lean that way. Performance wise they are pretty comparable. Both are extremely street-able. The downfall to the Carbonetic is that it requires quite a bit of maintenance. Fluid must be changed after each track day or every 3000 miles, and you MUST use Carbonetic gear oil. So I would say both are excellent performers and excellent for daily driven cars, but the OS Giken is a little more user friendly.
