Yes the quaife LSD's are back in the states, both the QDF7V and the QDF9V are back! Both are priced at $1395.

The smaller QDF7V will be ready to ship in 10 days, call us today to lock in your order at this special low price!!!

c55asleep?

Good investment to make imo.

+1, particularly if you're tractionally challenged like me. Whats the difference between the two units, one for the C32 and the 55???

moosejaw

C55 is easier to install i believe. Rolly can clarify that one

James@ACG

The QDF7V is for the C32, while the QDF9V is for the C55

Cheers

how long is the install time on these LSD's

James@ACG

depending on what your shop is going to charge you, for your C55, i would guess, 8 to 12 hours.

You can get the install done by either Richard at dyno-comp, or john at goodspeed.

hooleyboy

Rich at dyno-comp is my buddy, I got a long list of stuff I need them to do for me. Seems like im over there once a week.

James@ACG

Haha yea he's a good guy, we'll just have to add the quaife to that list then dont we.

hooleyboy

I am going to add the quaife to the list its just amatter of when.

What about the SLK32 -- same housing? Will the QDF7V work?

bobby02c32AMG

what kind of difference do these make, like how much of a performance increase?

James@ACG

From my understanding its a different casing, I believe someone tried to do the swap and you needed to buy the rear casing, axle and a few other items.

I will look for the information for you.

I'm not completely sure, but I can find out in a few hours.

Most C32, and C55 owners who have done the LSD would say this is one of the best mods you can do especially if you track or do canyon runs in your C. Your not going to get a performance upgrade per say in terms of ad more power then what you originally had, however what you will be able to do is utilize all power, to both wheels.

i'm sure a few guys here who have installed the quaife, can give you there own personal testament.

Both the C320 and SLK32 have a smaller transfer case than the C32 and E55. C32 uses a 210mm ring gear in its case and C320/SLK32 use a 195mm ring gear in their case. I tried to do the swap and I couldn't get the electronics to work. Mechanically, everything was fine; Quaife worked like it was supposed to. So I had to put the old case back in with a Phantom Grip.

I still have all the parts from the swap lying in my garage.

CKovach

Thanks...and bummer. Disappointing all the way around.

Pshek,
Can you give me a bit more detail on your statement:
"I couldn't get the electronics to work. Mechanically, everything was fine; Quaife worked like it was supposed to."

What electronics were not happy? TC, ESP, both? Did the car go into limp mode?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
KrzyFast

TCM gets wheel speed data and compares it to the transmission output speed sensor. It saw that the speed was way off because of the gear change ratio change and threw a code, which puts the engine in limp mode. I tried programming for the gear ratio change, but it didn't work.

Guys! I need your advice. I've got a 2004 C230k (restyling version) with manual gearbox and I've just ordered a Quife differential for C32. Will it fit and work properly? Any additional parts needed?

mb_c55amg_guy

Kleemann LSD's are 900 bucks............

inflectionpt

Anyone with Kleemann LSD installed in their car? How much do you guys think it would cost to get a LSD instaleld on a 2002 C32?

Example around a turn /w the Quaife LSD on my C55 AMG

No one wheel spin ... just powering through the turn and out through the second turn... unimaginable difference...

Bravo!

What's with the passenger headlight turning on coming into the first turn?

alumar

it literally went out completely an hour later...think it was on the verge of going dead on that run
