ok i know this is gonna sound weird.... but first off yes i have driven a car with lsd... but here it is... i have a 93 240sx with rb20det and all the susp blah blah.. but when i launch the car feels as tho it has a vlsd... but if i gun it in a corner feels like no lsd... so i jacked my rear end up to spin the driver side rear wheel to see if the opposite side moved but didn't ... what does this mean

I thought even with an open diff. the other side should spin the other way...

The way to check the diff. is to see if there's a little orange sticker that says VLSD on the diff...Run a search.

It will unless it is not off of the ground.

other side might not spin if its in neutral and there is a lot of drag(sticky brake, bearing, etc0 on the other side.

Either way, open diff or F'ed up LSD.
