hey guys....im guessing my lsd is not working properly. i can do burnouts without a problem but when i try to do a donut or try to drift (TRY TO), i can feel the tires bouncing? or that non-lsd feeling. dont 91 fastbacks have them? and since i can do a burn out that mean i have an lsd right? dont know guys need help!maybe i need to change the gear oil?

what year is your car? chances are you don't have lsd. People pay big ones to get them. And about being able to do burn outs... I can do 2+ second burn outs on my integra easily thanks to crappy tires

he is right partially, only s13 with HICA's have lsd in the United States. The s13 in canada i pretty sure all had lsd, same with the ones in japan. I dont think the our s14 have lsd either, mainly because you never here about people going to the junk yard to pull the diff out of a s14. But most s13 do not have lsd(in america).

you can burn out without lsd

all R200 diffs (j30, N/A z32, Gts-t R32) will work on s13 with correct output shafts and flanges.. some have 5 bolts, some have 3.that is your "some" reason :icesangel

Actually S14 SE's do have lsd's, at least some of them do. I found one at a junkyard with an lsd but it has abs. and the diff. a 1/4 inch longer because of the sensor so I can't use it.
