Cusco LSD-1C8-K15 Type MZ 1.5-Way Rear Limited Slip Differential

The Cusco LSD-1C8-K15 is a Type MZ 1.5-way limited slip differential designed for rear axle installation. This high-performance LSD is engineered for race vehicles and demanding motorsports applications where maximum power handling and solid engagement are critical.

Type MZ Design Features:

• Utilizes cone spring design where activation pressure opposes the direction of initial torque for aggressive engagement
• High initial torque rating (typically 9-11 kg-m) provides strong locking characteristics
• 24 friction clutch plates with radially cut grooves for instant oil movement and enhanced durability
• Forged chromoly internals housed in a high-strength chromoly case for extreme durability
• Oil Through System design ensures positive pressurized flow of differential oil through all components
• Polished clutch discs provide even and consistent contact with pressure rings

Performance Benefits:

• Optimized for drift, drag racing, and high-power track applications requiring solid differential engagement
• 1.5-way configuration provides full locking on acceleration with partial locking on deceleration for improved engine braking and corner entry stability
• Handles high horsepower applications with smooth torque delivery across all friction plates
• Precision forged side gears and pinion gears enable compact yet durable construction
• Increased internal oil capacity distributes load across more clutch plates for extended service life

The Type MZ is best suited for race vehicles and experienced drivers who require maximum traction and predictable behavior under extreme driving conditions. The 1.5-way design offers balanced performance with strong acceleration locking and moderate deceleration characteristics ideal for circuit racing and competitive motorsports.
