Hit vtec and broke my lsd

i just jacked up ym car
the wheels spin freely
i know before one used to turn the other
so i guess this reinforces the fact that its my LSD right

most likley yes, but still id rip the box off and diagnose the problem properley.

I will take off the box before I buy anything
my clutch is less then 6000k's old

my exedy blew after 3000kms.
its all on how you treat it? Did you have your flywheel machined when clutch was installed? Clutch shudder and high RPM changes = death.

Also take off the rubber grommet thingo on your gearbox around your clutch master cylinder, reach one or 2 fingers into your bellhousing and see if you can feel some fragments of clutch around.

i agree with KB. u probably broke the teeth off ur clutch. pull the flywheel inspection cover off and see if u can see bits of metal.

Doesnt a damaged LSD just cease to function and acts like a standard open diff?

Depends on the type of LSD...my other car lost all drive when the LSD died.A shattered cv joint can also give you a very similar symptom or stripped splines on the driveshaft.

Wanna ask a question, Does Spoon, Mugen, Kaaz LSDs kind of maintenance free? I would consider Quaife although it's a bit $$$$$ but i trust it's quality

Dude, what Clutch you are using...3 puck or 5 puck or what?
and what type of LSD is that? Type R or some aftermarket LSD?

If you are using a Type R LSD, i don't think you can broke it that easily..same goes with those clutched aftermarket LSD...

The only thing i can think of is that, you might just need to change your clutch, of one of the screw has fail you somewhere in the flywheel..or may be you've screwed your pressure plate big time...

clutch type LSD's can wear out. helical type dont.

i got single plate exedy HD
i'm gonna get a ITR LSD unit and fit it in my box
needs more then just lsd swoped over and some modifications but it can be done
Chalrie @ GPC is looking after it
