WTB: LSD for VW 012 5spd transmission
I'm looking for an LSD (clutch type/helical, don't care) for my VW 012 5spd transmission.
I know Quaife makes one (qdf6q5) and so does Guard. Probably some others out there as well. This transmission is out of a 2001 VW Passat 1.8T, going into my mid-engine 1.8T powered MK1 Rabbit. I know that the Porsche Boxster has the same transmission with maybe longer gears (albeit different cover plate bearing in pre-1999 versions). If someone has a good 012 (or the Porsche version) with an LSD already installed they want to sell, I'll buy the whole unit. I wouldn't mind having a spare, or the longer gearing of the Porsche version. I'm in southern NH. |
Kaaz makes a LSD for that transmission and the Boxster. It's what I have.
Exotech in Plastow installed it for me. |

Do you happen to know what type of power the 012 can handle? After some reconsideration, I'm thinking about welding my diff for a season to see how the transmission holds up to traction and increased power. I don't want to waste a bunch of money on an LSD if I'm just going to have to upgrade my transmission to an 01X anyway, you know? |
