Cusco 08-12 Nissan 370z Type MZ 1.5 Way (1.5 & 2 Way) LSD AT Rear

The Cusco Type MZ 1.5-Way Limited Slip Differential offers a near-perfect balance of aggressive traction and street-friendly handling. Designed for high-performance rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive vehicles, it delivers strong lock-up under acceleration while providing limited deceleration lock to preserve stability during braking and corner entry. For drivers who demand sharp throttle response and confident high-speed handling without the full-on aggression of a 2-Way LSD, the 1.5-Way MZ delivers.

Where the RS series uses coil springs to control lock engagement, the MZ line relies on a robust multi-plate clutch system with metal-on-metal contact — creating a more direct and assertive lock-up. This model features 12 or more clutch plates per side and a customizable setup including adjustable initial torque, multiple cam angles, and user-tunable lock characteristics. That means you can dial in the exact engagement behavior for your driving style and track conditions.

Compared to the MZ 1-Way, the 1.5-Way provides added control during trail braking and deceleration — great for reducing rear-end wiggle or instability when transitioning off throttle. And compared to the full 2-Way variant, it remains more forgiving under braking and low-speed cornering, making it more approachable for street use or intermediate-level competition. Whether you're tracking a weekend warrior or building a time attack machine, the MZ 1.5-Way is a professional-grade solution with adjustability and durability built in.

Cusco’s Type MZ 1.5-Way LSD is favored by drivers who need race-level traction and consistency without sacrificing too much street driveability. It’s the definitive middle ground — powerful, durable, and endlessly tunable.
