dukenukem Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Hi mate. Make sure you pop the hood and check it has a 'B' on the Trans/Axel line on the chassis label (Limited Slip Diff). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordy07 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Welcome mate,members are all ages i would guess the average was late twenties/early thirties only a guess though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Hi mate. Make sure you pop the hood and check it has a 'B' on the Trans/Axel line on the chassis label (Limited Slip Diff). That's helpfull advice:rolleyes: Ignore him mate, most Supra's don't come with an LSD as it's not really needed;) also what is the average age of members on here? just curious as im quite young and a supra is a pipe dream for most kids my age All ages, there's plenty of young un's, I thought I was young getting mine at 19 until the first person I met with one got there's at 17:blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dukenukem Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 (edited) That's helpfull advice:rolleyes: Ignore him mate, most Supra's don't come with an LSD as it's not really needed;) Really? Have you checked all the X's against the LSD on Mawby's chart? http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=59334 I was lied to by the importer when I bought my car who told me it had one. Check out the following - first 10 seconds is a TT with a standard diff (one wheel spinning), most of the rest is in an NA with an LSD - much more fun.

Guigsy Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 (edited) lsd makes sod all differnce to road driving. Even driving quickly. a LSD is NOT a must have" accessory unless you intend to drift arround corners on a public road like a loonatic. or feck arround in a carpark like a chav. telling someone to not buy a car if it hasnt got an lsd is quite bad advice. the model differences guide is exactly that. according to that my last car didnt exist. (5 speed manual, LSD, NA facelift) also many facelifts dont have vvti engines. Its not a definative 100% accurate source... its a guide.

Guest flosswel Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 sorry took me a while to get back on here, after driving the car i fell in love, im just sorting the funds out now and will hopefully have it in a week or so, fingers crossed. i think there was a button that was labelled something to do with LSD, cant be certain though.
