Look at the date on the posts, then listen:
If you want to put the OBX LSD into "generations" here's your guide:
First generation: mine, where the LSD had to be disassembled and bevelled so that axles would release. Great unit in all other respects.
Second generation: Great unit.
Third generation: Been sold for ~approx the last year, piece of ------- ----. Welcome to china parts, the one thing they get right turns to ----.

Helical is better than that phantom slip ---- block of fail wedged in between your spider gears. Next best thing to a quaife. Was going to buy one for the eclipse but i dropped that ---- like a bad habbit. Now i'm rwd and going welded while i raise funds to rebuild my oem clutch type lsd that came in the car. MMMMM, clutch chatter. People are going to look at me all the time like my car is broken when i turn in somewhere going slow. Lol!
I'd say run the helical (what are you doing with it btw?). A 1.5 way kaaz might be just the ticket when you have $800 to burn and plan on doing alot of track stuff.
Personally, i'd google around to figure out what will suit you best but for now, an obx is just up your alley. I've heard things like what jd was talking about. Also about those concave washers breaking. There are industrial hardware companies that sell these washers (i forget what they're called, belleville i think) but you have to buy them in bulk. Like 100 units at a time. Dont know much other than that and what's already been posted.
