maperformance.com sells a wavetrac lsd that is supposed to be the best from what i've been told...

tre or shep transmissions sell factory and aftermarket replacements/upgrades... that would probably be a great place to start...

I have to agree with this. Might cost you a lot but they're built much stronger and while you're at it, might as well upgrade to an LSD.

LSD should replace the diff so you won't need a stock diff at all if upgrading. LSD stands for "limited slip differential", meaning it's a diff that limits the slip.

Well currently im unemployed and I dont live in the USA so I cant send it out o the USA it would cost me like 500 on shipping to send it and receive it.

I think it was low on oil but oh well.

I had the same thing happen to my VIII, I sent the whole TC to Shep and they rebuilt it, and sent it back. did all the work myself on the dissassembly and assembly to the car, and cost me just a tad over 500. but being that you would be shipping international, not sure what the cost would be to you. and after it I had it installed it ran like a champ, and know that the guy that bought it hasn't had any trouble either. but the cheapest way would probably be a salvage yard or something, or maybe someone on here doing a part out has one.
