I know the HICAS models did (the ones with 4 wheel steering), but I cant remember if HICAS was offered in 89. It's late, I'm tired, I'm sorry :(

I still have a dsm its a 95 gst with a super 20g but it only runs high 13s im trying to sell it cause i just bought the 240 and im trying to get this kids 1st gen talon, i have to admitt though even though this is kinda gay, i saw initial d the first time and started watch drifting videos and bought a 240 so i can be a wanabe drifter. if you think about it, racing in a straight line sucks after a while and i got tired of it.

That's because the forums assign certain nicknames for the total number of times you post. The more you post the more your nickname changes :) Don't worry it's nothing personal

100 posts since August 29th, thats impressive Swift. : )

Some say all 89s had LSD, others say no 89s had LSD, if you can burn out and leave two tracks, you have LSD. If theres a big orange sticker that says you have LSD on your rear differential, you have LSD. : ) Theres a few other ways, but try those first, they're the easiest.

I believe the s14s had an option for lsd if you had ABS brakes I am not saying if you have abs then you got lsd but hey drop the hammer smoke the **** out of the tires and we can always see 2 streaks is GOOD

All that i know about 89-94 240's is that the models which had the super hicas 4 wheel steering also had an lsd. All canadian models got lsds for some strange reason, so if you need a decent lsd for a while, get one off a canadian 240. prolly cost you a couple hundred bucks.Quote »100 posts since August 29th, thats impressive Swift. : )[/quote] I think I have figured it out...theres some new drug in the form of lightwaves radiating off my computer screen and it seeps into my eyes then into my brain and im addicted to what i see on these boards...............!!!!!!!

Limited Slip Differential. It is on the back axle of cars that are equipped with it. Here are pictures of an S15 LSD http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...84425And read this to figure out how they work...http://www.howstuffworks.com/differential.htm
