Thats's what I always thought too lol

If you life in a cold climate its pretty easy you put 1 tire on ice and the other on pavement...and see what happen.

A lot of cars don't have LSD, especially FWD because they don't produce enough power required to have an LSD.
Now a lot of sportier cars have them, because they costed more to produce and came in very few numbers such as a Honda Civic SI..ect.
Only way to really find out, Jack up the front of the car and have a buddy look at the wheels when you put it into 1st gear and slowly let it loose.

so i plan on doing a beams swap later on. But i saw how there is a beams engine with lsd on ebay. By chance would you be able to use that lsd on a gt celica??? or would it be too much to do.

[bccentaur3]

It the swap came with axles you don't really have much to do. Straight drop in.

ok so what about quaife...is there a quaife application for the s54 or would you need a whole new tranny (assuming you had a 3s or 5sfte or basically anything putting out 170hp and up ex. mini cooper s

scratch that just answered my own question...no

so what trans that would mate to a 5s (assume it would be correctly t/c or s/c putting out at least 180) that would have lsd? the e153? these were the only toyotas on the website that quaife does
Toyota 2000 Corolla GT-S AE92 MR2(non Turbo) 6-speed QDF15E
Toyota MR2 (turbo) QDF17E
Toyota Scion E350 QDF25E
Toyota SR5 QDF26E
Toyota Starlet AE92 turbo QDF16E

and

Lotus Elise S2 / Toyota Celica / MR2 Spyder (6-speed) QDF21E

that had a quaife application

If your car is jacked up in the front and you step on the gas, only one wheel will spin, correct? So if you use like a crowbar or something against the tire to stop it from spinning (we're not talking high revs here), if you have LSD then the other wheel will start to spin. Isn't that true? It was with my 4Runner - reer wheel spun and when stopped, power transferred to the opposite side front wheel. (It was RW-4WD automatic but only went into 4WD when you pushed a button inside)

I thought the Canadian GT-S models had LSD... no?
