Unless the 97-98 options are different than the 95-96 options, I have an SE without LSD on my 95. It's a package that came with anti-lock brakes. If you have ABS, you have an LSD.

Find a wet, snowy or whatever, dry pavement, and just lay into the brakes like a motherfucker, if you feel a bounyness or a vibration in the petal you have abs, you can also check your brakes themselves, if you have abs there is a pressure regulator... i like the try to lock the wheels way though... the easiest way to lock your brakes is to start a slow brake then release and give it a quick pump hard and they will lock... it might say inside your door (some cars do) and there is 10-15 other ways to find out...

OK...to tell if you have ABS there are 3 REALLY easy ways. First, start your car...a yellow light should turn on that says ABS. SEcond, pop your hood....on the right side of the engine there will be a box with brake lines coming out of it (if its missing...no abs) Third, Open your fuse panel and look for the abs fuse...its missing, either its been stolen by the abs-gnomes or you have no abs to start out with <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

The two where both factory options on all years its in the FSM.
yes I owned a 89 fastback that was verified by Glendale Nissans computer . It had VLSD and no ABS!!
Rampid , stop telling people that if the cars do not have ABS they do not have VLSD.
LIke I responded to you in Tech. I have found cars that were ABS but no VLSD . Open rear ends!!! The two options were quite often paired together most of the time but there are some exceptions as was proven to me first hand. Yes I was a bit shocked because the diff had an ABS sensor and I though for sure it was gonna be a VLSD imagine me and the wrecking yard guy staring wide eyed at the open diff going well *&$% me. hahahahhahha oh well hopes dashed.
I hope this helps you boosted
thanks man, i guess the best way to test this is to lay a fu#king hairy burn out and hope for posi.
hahahah.
or i will just test the rear end using my friend holding one wheel as i turn the other

i doubt you'll have the strength to do that. easier way is to turn one side, if the other side turn counter direction, that's LSD. but yea, if you locked ur wheels in a hard brake, no LSD... join the rest of us and find one in a junk yard.

99% of time, they were factory-equipped with both. However, if the original owner requested only the VLSD to be installed with no ABS, that was possible as well. LEs were stocked with ABS and LSD unless requested otherwise. The best way to find out if you have an LSD is to find a patch of snow and put your left rear wheel over it and peel out or have someone look at your left rear wheel while peeling/burning out.
People, for the sake of bettering the 240 world with proper education, don't say that ABS and LSD ALWAYS came together, because they didn't. Little boys and girls from all over the world thank you <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>.

put a jack under the rear end lift the rear wheels off the ground and spin on wheel forward if the left and right side spin the same way at the same time than you have LSD

Jesus christ man...did it not occur to you that I posted those at about the same time? Before i found out otherwise??!! Sorry that you are the fuckin grand pubah of all things 240 and i'm still learning...but you dont have to be a dickhead about it. If i made a mistake a simple correction is all that is necessary...not another post bashing what i have to say

rampid chill out, first off I am not the grand pubah of all things 240 why don't you try growing up a bit.
Second off I stomped on your post because you blatantly went and posted info you knew nothing about in two different sections of the forum. When you spread this misinformation it screws a lot of people up. If you are not sure and don't have the facts refrain from saying anything . It do you some good to sit back and read and learn. then when you do post you can post with knowledge.
You posted misinformation in order to keep people from following it it had to be corrected. Fact of life.
now grow up and learn to take this stuff like a man . I am not being a dickhead If I was I would have told you to shove it up your ass for the way you are acting. I did not do that .

easy people, no need for any harsh feelings. a forum is to help people out with questions or problems or to generally chat, its not to critisize one and other. both of you helped me alot. but so what if abs and vlsd can be sold as options seperatetly, it is knowledge to me.
thanks for your help all!

My misleading information was not a lack of knowledge, it was a lack of experience. I usually try and do my research before I would make a post like that. Up until your post, EVERY source i had talked to (including 2 nissan dealerships) said that it came in a package with no mention of possible separation. (guess they didn't know either) Sorry for my outburst.

VLSD and ABS are almost always packaged together, so it's easy to think that if you have one you're going to have the other. He realized his mistake after you posted. There's no reason to keep drilling it in.
drift freaq
02-13-2002, 09:27 PM
I was not drilling it in. first off he posted the same misinformation in two seperate areas of the forum simultanously. I corrected them.
Second off he flew off the handle at me because I proved him wrong and he did not like it. that is not my problem it is his. All I did in the end was respond to him flying off the handle at me for pointing out his misinformation. In response to him flying off the handle at me and throwing insults I told him , (if you read my post carefully) that I was not going to get upset and tell him to shove it up his ass. Which I did not do. I just mentioned i could have.
Now I think all of you should go back and read my post again and realize I treated the man as he should have been treated and was not overly mean or insulting . On the other hand he struck back with condescending remarks and insults.
Now with that pointed out I find it rather funny that you guys are defending someone who chose to act childish when proven wrong on their statements rather than taking it like a man. He only acted like a man after I responed to his childishness.

if you have a 95-98 SE, you have no LSD if you have no ABS, and Kid Zelda pointed out the fact that if your car is an automatic, even if it has ABS, it has no LSD. However I was told the base model S14s either came with LSD or ABS (or both). I have no idea what S13s are like,
here's some infor i found on240sx.org that may be of assistance.
http://www.240sx.org/faq/articles/limited_slip_differential.htm
anyways drift freaq and rampid, be nice, this isnt freshalloy.com
we are all constantly learning, and yet have a lot more to learn.

see here http://www.socal240sx.org/faq/specifications.html for brochure scans from 89-98, has all the packaging info...

02-14-2002, 02:07 AM
ya but those faq specs on socal240sx.org are not correct. I proved those wrong a little while ago with the moderator over there thats where Kid Zelda tries to base his claims from . Fact is Irena can verify that those faqs are wrong because even she knows that VLSD was a option in 89-90 and its not listed in that Faq. that Faq was some kind of sales brochure that was posted that Nissan put out it was not from the Factory Service Manual . In the Factory Service manual it states that the VLSD was an option on years of S13 as well as S14 goes ask Irena if you doubt me Grant and 808rps13. I know what I am talking about here I owned a 89 with VLSD and of course that faq is just as bad as some of the faqa on 240sx.org. Which have also been proven to be wrong recently.

BoostedS14 basically after all this pointless arguing, just do what Irena says:wink:
It's fun to burn out anyways!!! until you find out u don't have LSD, (in my case.)
