    i bought an 86 a few months ago,

    the guy said it had an LSD,
    i drove and said it didn't,


    i have pulled the diff out for proof,
    it has an 8 bolt centre,
    and can someone correct me, this is an S series right??
    from what people have described it is an S series.





    i just need someone to go, yes it is or no it isn't.

    8 bolt = S series.

    No LSD's available.

    Best you can do is lock it or ditch it.
    You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?

    Correct, but also came in the AE85 too

    Check your diff again, and compare the pinions from the axel side of the diff. If you see a cross, then its a normal single spinner. If its just a single pinion..you've hit the jackpot

    *** click on images for larger version ***
    - Open centre
    - LSD
    - Comparison...also note the spider gears adn internals of the whole diff.

    How do I know? How else could I get photos
