LSD Standard?
 

Has anyone heard if an LSD will be standard on these and if so, what type it is?

Torsen type...standard...on FRS and both BRZ models in Canada and the USA.

:search:

all fingers point to yes

it will be a torsen

mechanical might be an option

In before lock!

Nah you're going to have to buy your LSD from the corner dealer and keepit hidden in the little cubby behind the passenger side panelling.

Technically yes & no

All MT tranny come with LSD. Base model AT tranny doesn't come w LSD

the base RC model and the G model does not have LSD

we won't be getting those here in Canada

Oh god, they are selling it in an automatic?

yeah man

why you gotta discriminate against people with only one arm or leg? :thumbsup:



Besides, automatics these days are getting better and better. Manual in this day and age really is for the die-hards.

Also in the Subaru press release it says "Limited-slip rear differential is standard for all."

Is it at least a 5 speed auto?

6 speed auto buddy

We're going out of topic, but it's 6 speed auto.

Edit: switchlanez@ you beat me to it.

Is this car going to be FWD?

WUT

Lol lazy to search and late to the party.

as far as i know we won't be getting the stripped down, no paint bumper etc etc versions here.

He's talking about the RC and G trim levels not being offered in the NA market.

OP is an obvious troll or most uniformed member.

edit: 7th with the quick response.

:lol: Haha...that is too funny.

Damit, I'm still debating between MT and auto....have been driving MT most of my life, my current dd 'lude is 5sp but I am fed up with all the traffic up to the point I'm splitting time w/ my auto 330...why people have to f@ckin chill driving to work? if every1 picks up the pace, shet will be much better....yea i got road rage problem sometimes when it takes me more than an hr get to work....

Nope there's going to be a 5th wheel right in the middle of the car to power it.

Is torsen not considered mechanical? I thought it was, maybe I'm wrong.

It is.

i'm saying what Mr. Tada said (see Chris Hanson's interview)

perhaps he alluded to a clutch type

Where there is a wheel, there is a way!
ps. sorry to further derail


btw what kind of Torsen LSD will be used?

The one that locks the wheels when you dorifto

It's a Torsen T2, same one that came in the 01-05 Lexus IS300.

This was the only reference to a "mechanical" [aka idiot speak for clutch-pack LSD] that I'm aware of. It's entirely likely it will surface in the form of an accessory or TRD branded aftermarket product down the road.

Just to get it off my chest, ALL differentials are mechanical. Open, clutch-pack, and ATB are all mechanical. When you add electrically controlled servos [et al] to an open diff, you're bolting electronics gizmos onto a *gasp* mechanical diff.

I was told at the ny auto show all model will have lsd starting at $24,945.didn't ask about auto or mt because I dont care about autos lol

Just add a hinge for easy access...

Great place for all kinds of stuff, lol

I would like to point out that the MA70/JZA70 Supra along with other cars use the same differential setup, and pretty much any clutch-pack LSD sold for those cars will fit, so there are already a ton of options out there.
