Re: Prevelance of Q2 differential
I have it - as of yesterday (as per my other posts!).

Shouldn't there be an "I don't have Q2" option??

Where's the "electronical Q2" and
"no Q2 available for my car" options!

I thought about this, but then I thought, I'm not really bothered about the amount of people that don't have it, just the amount that have had it fitted compared to the amount that have fitted it as a mod.

As for the 'electronic Q2', as far as I know its just a clever traction control system and so not a differential at all. From what the dealers say it does work really well, but its not retrofit-able anyway.

I'd rather it stayed as it is if that's alright, as no doubt there'll be people without one now who will have one fitted in future, and they wouldn't be able to change their votes.. The way it is now, the total amount of votes will be a sort of "Q2 count"..

There's no option for me, so i'm being forced to abstain.

Sounds like a british General Election

Re: Prevelance of Q2 differential
What does this diff provide?
Is it a LSD?
Is it more reliable than the "selespeed"?

It's how the GTA's / V6 GT's should have left the factory. The difference is staggering
