Quaife?

I had the Quaife installed along with the DDM rear brace at the same time. Together the car is much stiffer and easier to handle. You can enter turns at a higher speed an expect a much more smooth/predictable exit. I added the DDM backbone brace and that furthered the chassis stiffness and handling. I should also note that I have the GMPP suspension and swaybar kit.

Didn't know one was available for the GTO's and would slip into the Solstice. I know Randy will be getting the Quaiffe in his.

By the way, are you stocking Red Bull for the local quicky mart?

I am still trying to really get a hold of this concept, but basically with a 1 way when you accelerate the differential locks up, when you back off it unlocks and the rear wheels uncouple to basically an open state. With a 2 way when you accelerate the differential locks up, but when you decelerate it does not unlock, this is waht most Drift cars run, and would put most of us in the ditch. The 1.5 locks when you accelerate and partially unlocks on decelerateion, I think this is what comes stock in the Solstice. The Kaaz can be set for 1way, 1.5 way and 2 way. My sons drift Goat has a Kaaz and he is at 1.5 way as he learns to Drift working his way to the 2 way setting. I have read really good things about the Quaife, as well as the OS Giken and Torsen but I think only the Quaife is available for the Solstice By the way Kaaz does make a differential for one Solstice. The same one that works in the 2004 GTO will work in the Solstice These are all Kaaz differentials. They are interchangeable between the Solstice and GTO

I wrote the Kaas guys, they knew RMR was running the Kaas but did not know if the GTO diff would work in the Solstice. I like getting sideways a lot and that is where the Kaas excells, the Quaife is better for Auto X or the track in most cases.

Here is a picture of the outside of the trailer, yes they do stock a lot of Red Bull and that wasn't even half of it, that was the overflow that wouldn't fit under the RV.
