Not sure what an RRP would be but the description is a bit weird. I didn't realise there was a 300kw VY Monaro produces, especially one with 3.9's. Maybe out of a GTO?

I just looked on on this ls1edit site just then and seen it listed but also mentioned Axles, so does this mean i need different axles to fit it on the VX11SS

Wouldn't bother with a Hydratrack.
Alot of people on here believe you would be better off with a standard 3.9 Centre. (speaking from experiance)
According to a mate who builds them, a hydratrak of that ratio sells around the $1800 mark, so not a bad deal, saved a few $$$$.
I just had one put together with 3.73 ratio but got rid of the stock bearings and used a higher performance bearing. Looking forward to getting it installed!

Thats what i have heard about them as well they are not as good as people say. But id have to find out myself or repost it for sale and get the KAZZ as suggested from some people.

The mentioned product is not a complete diff centre, rather just the diff cover and mount for $500, still need to factor in the cost of new ratio gears and upgrading the internals!! May be a better option but may end up costing a few more $$$ to completely upgrade the diff.

I picked up a brand new GTO Monaro Diff (3.73's are standard) for $1000 of this forum. The Caprice loved it. No Axle tramp and the LSD works great. You could have had your existing diff totally rebuilt with new gears and LSD for less than you paid. At least now you have a spare if you kill one.
Not a big fan of hydratrak diffs, after putting one in my old vr ss.
I only really bought it because it had the diff gears I wanted 3.45:1 and it was cheap.
But was :( after it was fitted on fun at all.

Hydratrak is a speed/torque sensitve centre, not the same setup as a traditional LSD, if you don't do burnouts or track race (circuit) they aren't bad.
Just not designed to put up with abuse (neither is the stock LSD)
If you want to smoke em up grab a Kaaz centre (about $1600) and install it into your Holden LSD.
As Raff said, HSV want $1800 for the complete hydratrack diff, however if you buy one of these you will need to get the axles as well, they are different lengths to the stock units.
CobraLS1 had a complete conversion for sale recently, may be him on Ebay????
I paid $1,500 for a brand new Hydra Trak (latest generation) with axles, high quality bearings etc fully installed :)

I have had a long think about it and i might be selling them again soon as i get them ,and going with the KAZZ diff as i drive the car hard and would be more suitable for the my use.
