I am looking at a new diff for the Mk1, has anyone used a Wavetrac Item? The main problem with a Quaife ATB is that if you lift a wheel you lose all drive, the Wavetrac item continues to output in such conditions?

Anyone use one, any feedback appreciated?

i use a Kaaz 1.5 way clutch pack LSD, much much better than the stock lsd unit which to be fair is like Quaife

No used one yet but going to try one in a corsa VXR and astra VXR soon, they seem to offer all the benefit of a plated diff and the benefit of an ATB! If they are as good as they say then they will be a very good purchase!

Box build done and in, it is simply awesome!

This diff has transformed the car.

Silky smooth in operation, applies power to the ground very efficiently, feels quicker off the mark and has removed the 'power on' understeer in corner.

Love it! bounce
