I'm sure people where confused as to why an LSD was offered on a "Corolla" back in the '80's as well.

I'm 100% positive this car will have a LSD, at the very least, optional.

I know, I just wanted a public statement by the voter, so we may all berate him.

Edit: Oh snap, a second vote for viscous.

I'm guessing on Torsen. Most of FR car that Toyota made uses Torsen (Supra, Mark II, Chaser, Verossa). IIRC they even used on Celica GT-Four

No I haven't but locking diffs are for drifting. or for off roading i guess.

[NESW20]

mostly off-roading. some slip is still desirable for drifting, AFAIK. i'm not much into drifting, though. the difference even just a rear locker makes off-road is INCREDIBLE. here's a fun video that illustrates the difference in capabilities pretty well:

here's one that shows one wheel off the ground, yet no slip:

and some propaganda for lockers:

they are absolutely not for use around turns on a grippy surface. there's no way they'll put a locker on the FT. people would snap CV's left and right...

when you posted that it just reminded me of my brothers 4runner 4x4 it has a lock diff button. but im 100% sure this car wont have a lockable differential, speaking of LSD im hoping to rebuild the whole rearend on my AE86 so far this is what i Have.

New KAAZ 2 way LSD

New R&P

hope after the bz holiday Ill buy this new & stronger axles
