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

tripjammer · 02-09-2012, 10:51 AM

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

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.

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

yeah man

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

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

This is from Scion's press release in the US:
"The power is put to the pavement via a standard Torsen limited-slip differential."
http://pressroom.scion.com/releases/...conference.htm

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