I'm removing the eletronic speed limiter on my car next month.

So what speed will I hit with the LSD?

OK, it looks like I'm going for :

Cusco -MZ Clutch LSD - setting 1.0 or 2.0

I can get a 1.5 or 2.0....but I think the 1.0 for road and 2.0 for track would be ideal. My tuner recommends 2.0 setting.

Comments anybody?

They seem to be between $900 - $1400 depending on which one - carbon models appear to be $1400.

Yup, it's a few $ but it's ESSENTIAL for track use / racing circuit.

I think the stock OPEN LSD which is on the GS is kewl for road use.

Simple, you just install the HKS SLD (Speed Limit Defender) which will remove whatever the speed your factory setting was at. I was told this won't work with American GS'es...

I've got a Blitz speed de-limiter.

Apparently, it doesn't work on the Aristo/ GS!!!

Blitz tell me that if you release your foot off the accelerator over 180km/h it kicks down into 4th gear, which is supposedly dangerous.

Still trying to clarify this as all speed de-limiters work the same way and there are many de-limited Aristos.

thats because u need the hks sld from what I know they are the only ones that are compatible with the gs300/aristos. Had one in mine before I went full standalone transmission controller. The hks one worked great in my car no speed cut at all after install
