I don't know what the "Gripper" is, but if it is anything like "Phantom Grip"
that you add to a stock diff to create friction to "lock" the two sides, It
doesn't work. The Quaife works fine until you lose drive on one of the two
sides and then it totally uncouples the diff from the drive train. You end up
pushing the car off the track.

I don't know what the "Gripper" is, but if it is anything like "Phantom
Grip" that you add to a stock diff to create friction to "lock" the two sides,
It doesn't work. The Quaife works fine until you lose drive on one of the
two sides and then it totally uncouples the diff from the drive train.

Does anyone have experience with a Gripper diff - or a Quaiffe? I
currently run a welded diff in the GT6 and am contemplating whether any
advantage could be gained by making a swap. Certainly curious as to what
the super fast GT6s at the Kastner Cup were running.
