Here are the technical advantages of the OS Giken OS Super Lock LSD Spec-S 1.1-Way for the Honda Civic Type R FL5 (K20C) — Part No.: OS-SUPER-LOCK-SPEC-S-FL5:

OS Giken OS Super Lock LSD Spec-S 1.1-Way – Key Advantages

1. True 100% Locking Capability

  • Utilizes OS Giken’s patented “Super Lock” mechanism with up to 28 active friction plates, allowing nearly 100% locking rate under load.
  • Ensures maximum torque transfer to the wheel with traction, critical during high-G cornering and acceleration.

2. 1.1-Way Locking Configuration

  • Provides progressive lock under acceleration, while allowing mild lock under deceleration.
  • Improves corner entry stability and preserves turn-in response, ideal for FF (front-engine, front-wheel-drive) dynamics.
  • Enhances vehicle rotation during trail braking without abrupt lock-up, which reduces understeer.

3. Motorsport-Proven Clutch-Type Design

  • Offers consistent response under high temperatures and aggressive driving.
  • Outperforms helical/Torsen-type LSDs in track, time attack, autocross, and touge applications.
  • Maintains better contact patch by minimizing inside-wheel spin on tight turns or uneven pavement.

4. Reduced Wear and Noise – Spec-S Tuning

  • The Spec-S version is pre-set for street + occasional track use, with milder initial torque for quiet operation and daily drivability.
  • OS Giken’s unique cam-angle and spring preload tuning minimizes chattering and diff “clunking” sounds.
  • Offers longer life span and lower maintenance intervals than most aftermarket clutch LSDs.

5. Fully Rebuildable and Tunable

  • Easily serviceable with rebuild kits and customizable preloads, ramp angles, and lock rates.
  • Future-proof for more aggressive builds or racing use.

6. Optimized for FL5 Civic Type R

  • Specifically engineered to match K20C engine torque characteristics and FL5’s dual-axis front suspension geometry.
  • Greatly improves traction under power, especially exiting corners where OEM open or helical LSDs lose efficiency.

Best Use Cases:

  • Street performance (daily-driven FL5 with spirited driving)
  • Time Attack / Track Days / Autocross
  • High-power builds with upgraded turbo or engine internals
