Here's how I'd describe it:
My GT6 has a welded rear - its behavior is consistent throughout the turn
(like it or not!). Get on the gas early and it's predictable, but not great
for low speed turns.
the TR4 I bought last year has a detroit locker - every time it engaged during
the turn i certainly noticed the trajectory changed.  I would describe it as
an on-off switch.  I only have one weekend in that car - not enough to judge
yet.  Certainly easier to push around the paddock than a welded rear!

one of our local Triumph club members has an oriignal detroit locker in his
race GT6 and he's looking to move back to something less savage, possibly a
torsen/helical type or even a clutch plate type.  is there any other diff
centre that can be modifed to  fit these housings or does anyone want a
swap??

thanks
Terry
