Description
Description
Through the smooth and constant distribution of power to the wheels, the MFactory Metal Plate LSD puts the power-to-the-ground and maximizes your vehicle's traction where conventional Torsen LSD's succumb to their limits. The Metal Plate LSD is by far the best performing Limited Slip Differential available for a dedicated Circuit, Rally or Drift car.
Diamond Cut to exacting tolerances from Forged High-Nickel-Chromium-Molybdenum Steel
Perfect fitment & finish ensures hassle-free installation & maintenance, each and every time
Designed using leading-edge Solidworks 3D CAD & Cosmos FEA software
Advanced Gear Geometry minimizes parasitic drivetrain losses. Race transmissions built with MFactory components transfer, on average, 1-2% more power to the ground over our competitors!
Stress Tested on loaded dynos
Ensures our differentials are strong enough to handle the shock loads encountered during racing, yet also durable enough to handle the variable loads encountered during day-to-day driving
Fully Adjustable at-the-track
Users can fully adjust the LSD settings, be it initial pre-load, engagement angles or lock percentage at-the-track without any special tools necessary (disassembly of transmission required)
Coil Spring Pre-Load System (Application Dependant)
Through the integration of a coil spring pre-load system, gone are the days of on/off jerkiness, ensuring smooth power transition and maximum throttle response
2nd Generation Design (Application Dependant)
Through the accumulation of over 8 years of ongoing research and statistical analysis, we are proud to introduce our new v2 Metal Plate LSD applications for BMW (20-Plate) and Honda (16-Plate). A commonly known issue with Plate type LSD's is the associated NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) during low speed manoeuvres, especially noticeable on a daily driver. With the new MFactory v2 Metal Plate LSD, which uses our new 2nd Generation Active Friction™ Type-SS Plates (originally developed for our competition Touring Cars), NVH is reduced by as much as 50%
Low-Cost Maintenance Parts
Unlike with our Helical LSD, the Metal Plate LSD will require regular maintenance to keep performance at its peak. Replacement pre-load springs & plates are always in stock and offered at an affordable price
Covered by the MFactory Lifetime, Globally Transferable Warranty
Whether used on the Street, Strip or Track, all MFactory Metal Plate LSD's come with a Lifetime, No-Hassle, Globally Transferable Warranty

- New "Ramp Chip" Design for BMW v2 Metal Plate LSD fitments, allowing fully self-adjustable ramp angle customisation
Honda B16A2 Fitments: Will not directly fit models previously equipped with an OEM Viscous LSD, and will require a Ring Gear change
BMW 135i MT/335i 07+ MT/DCT/335d Fitments: Will not directly fit these models due to the oem Ring Gear being welded onto the differential. The Ring Gear will either need to be machined to accept the new LSD, or a new bolted Ring & Pinion used. MFactory Competition Products is one of only 3 companies in the US that can provide this service that meets oem tolerances, and the only US company to manufacture precision aftermarket performance Ring & Pinions (Final Drive Gears) for the BMW

Customer Reviews
This MFactory LSD unit has truly livened up the rear end of my car. With this differential, I can corner 100× more confidently and my lap times have improved vastly. The process of building this diff wasn't too difficult after a bit of time and research, so far the diff has been handling everything I give it for the past 6000 kilometers. Absolutely satisfied with this purchase.
