factory LSD

[sledgehammer]

Is anyone absolutely positive which '97-'98 240's (if any) came with a factory LSD???

[Daunttless]

It has to have ABS to have LSD.

i will go ahead and let ya know i have a 97' se w/ the abs and the so called lsd its moreless worthless... if u want lsd get aftermarket..

[240_Keyy]

ummmmm...

ANY LSD is better than NO LSD

So, if I found a car with ABS, is it gauranteed to have the LSD? Or is it still an option left up to the orignal purchaser?

i am pretty sure that all the se's have the lsd .. all the se's have the abs too i am pretty sure .. that may be just in s14s .. i dont know .. just buy an SE and u should be ok .. thats the best one.. well LE but thats just leather ..

[RWDnot RICE]

not all s14 SE's have an LSD my 98 se doesn't have one. you can supposedly tell by the number that is stamped on the firewall in the engine bay.

there is a place in the FAQ area on http://www.240sx.org to use that number on the car to determine the original state of your 240.

No. Check the specifications on each year on this link to find out more details.

i think that the 97 se w/ abs has a lsd that it just sux .. when i go to do a drift somtimes i have both tires spinnin and its easy and sometimes one will spin and it doesnt break lose good .. so the best thing is aftermarket

Who makes 'em?

I found these made by Kaaz:

But those are $900 i believe.

For the everyday driver making no more than 325HP, is the R200 a good unit?

No. Check the specifications on each year on this link to find out more details.

C-kwik... are you SURE that an ABS S14 can not have an LSD? I thought that it was LSD = ABS, so there is not really a way around it.

Quaife makes LSDs.

[RPS13Sideways]

Quaife LSDs are very good, I had one on my Civic before....worked wonders at the track....

[ItzGenX]

The Kaaz unit is in the 700 range, not 900. Give or take a couple dollars, not give or take a couple hundred

[SR20DET240]

oops, sorry about that.

I guess that was MSRP or something.

Still $700 is expensive for the everyday driver/occasional racer when a VLSD from AfterDark is only $300.
