trans experts...talk to me about phantom slips :)
Who has rocked one, how many kinds are out there, Do they work at all? I'm looking to jam something in the rear of the tprc (wagovan rear diff) for even more snow chewing crazyness, lol.

the fantom grip acually does't even make sence to me how it works, metal on metal with no clutch packs, just some spring pressure

I never had a problem with mine in my neon, it stood up to a lot of abuse, stage 3 clutch and turbocharged, worked great. I thought it was a nice alternative. Although, now OBX has a better diff style limited slip available for a pretty good price, and I've heard good things about it.

I'll be short and sweet...................
Anyone here a threat.......some much that PHANTOM SLIP filed a lawsuit against you, but later dropped it when you provided info about Patent infringement?
ANYONE?
I know Tom's not on here............
Good, OBX is the lowest you can go for D series LSD for drag racing/Street driving

Re: trans experts...talk to me about phantom slips :)
I would rock a obx in a second if it would bolt in the rear diff, or front diff for that matter but as far as I know there is nothing made for the wagovans drivetrain, I have heard that there were a few lsd trannys from jdm but very few and lsd rears but the rear is not a bolt in

Accept the fact you might have to fab something else in place of the OEM rear end in order to get a quality unit, because PG is a failure item.
Actually going to OPM, who PG stole their design from, might give you a better quality piece for your money.
Alternately, and what I'd do if I were you and didn't want to fab in an alien rear end, you can contact Steve Eckerich who owns a full machine shop and designed/fabbed the rear suspension + lots of misc goodies for the GRM rotary Spitfire... last time I talked to Steve he was machining stock diff housings to fit clutch packs in place of the OE spider gears, and he's still doing it because Ari w/ the turbo Miata has/is/will be sending his Miata diff off to him for said treatment.
