the phantom grip uses clutchpacks that will wear through time...how much time? I don't know...I'd guess it would have to take years to wear it down... The Quaife has a lifetime warranty...even when raced...so that's something to think about too...

I have and use the Phantom Grip and I really like it. All that is does is use pressure against the spider gears. Those plates can wear down over time but it will take a long time. I think it is a great lower cost alternative to a normal LSD. It might not be the absolute best for higher end racing but it works well on the street and once a week racing with your friends.

I am going to call tomorrow because I have been told that it was not supposed to be sold that low. I also don't see what is wrong with what everyone else charges which is around what we do. Then a company like this makes the product look cheap when it isn't. I don't know the guys from mmr, but it is things like this were I lose respect for how they do business. If I was given the wrong info and we are allowed to sell them for what they do, I will be more than happy to lower my price a bit but I think it is a good product and doesn't deserved to be whored out.

thanks .. exaclty what i wanted to know :) .. and i also agree with you about whoring out good products, but a lot of people out there will just go for the cheapest they can find which might or might not be good in some cases. i'll stick with clubrsx where everything else comes from to me :driving: :spam:

Before I installed the PG I had to pop the clutch acouple of times to get both tires to spin in the burnout box. Now everytime I hit the burnout box both tires spin first time. The car will still break the inside tire loose in a turn. It all depends on how tight your turning and how much throttle your giving. All in all it works. I think it would work real well on N/A cars because of the torque curve not coming in as violently as a turboed car.

The Phantom grip has a lifetime warranty also. I love mine, why spend the $$ for a quaife when the pg does the same thing? I got it on sale at mmrusa for $255
Well, mostly because it doesn't do the same thing.

even on a turbo'ed car?

so eventually it'll wear out and your gonna need new spider gears wont u? if i go quaife i wont have to worry about that?
