Are all aftermarket differentials LSDs? Do you need to change the differential on a '95-'96 240sx to get good slides? Does any body have any recomendations?

If you're trying to drift and want to get into advanced stuff, I can't see it happening without an LSD.
without an LSD, one tire will spin and one tire will drag across the road. This set-up will yeild very short drifts especially at low speeds.
VLSDs aren't aggresive enough to hold drifts. There's a Video in the Pics and clips forum that shows what happens when you try to drift with ans VLSD.

well i noticed a difference and it was alot better then not having an lsd.and i do know what an lsd does but thanks any ways for the info. i had no problems at all with drifting with no lsd (but yes i do agree it is better to have lsd) but for a begginer i dont think it is really neccisary to go out and buy one right away like every one suggests. from my persanal experianc witch is about 2 years in japan drifting i think starting with out lsd is better because it will teach you to enter the turn faster so the back tire that is dragging wont slow you down. but yes on a track i would perfer having an LSD. so dont think im some random kid trying to diss lsd to start some sh!t.

Its funny to see my passengers shaking when I turn
