1992 M30 Differential In 1987 Vg30 S12

there is a company that makes suspension goodies(overseas).
there are coilovers in existence,body kits,bushings and some others. there are plenty of parts for the leopard out there, just hard to come by. oh and eBay sometimes has the coilovers(just remembered that) and there is a Japanese club that sells stuff too.

there is another club though, was around WAY before f31club.com( im a member of both) you'll have to dig to find the other club. but i think there are some posts about it(the other club) on NICO.

i have an 88 se-v6, 5 speed. anyway. in the very little driving time ive put in so far, ive spun the tires about twice. 1st time was in a tight parkming lot testing out how easy it is to throw her sideway and the 2nd is right infront of my house in a failed holeshot attempt.

case 1. 1st gear in parkng lot. i nail gas mid turn, and the car goes sideway no sweat what so ever. i know from driving my peg leg 240sx, a peg leg would usually just spin the inside tire making no attempt to throw the car sideways unless you clutch kick it or really yank the steering wheel  

case 2. earlier in the night, i had done a few holeshots from the red light. my 1st night driving the car, im ofcourse a bit impressed with the cars v6 torque (i drive a 4 cyl nissan truck daily) i find its got great torque for holeshots, unlike the nissan 4 bangers which usually slow down to meet the clutches needs. with the vg30 the tires and clutch do what the motor tell them to do    
so yea back to the story. im outside my house and go to do a little launch. nope. accidentally gave too much gas and both tires broke loose. i said fuggit and carried out 1st gear. you know that nice high pitch tire squeel a posi track camaro makes during a burnout? thats what i heard. both of them. and ofcourse there was 2 nice marks.

so whats the deal? did the se-v6s come with limitied slip?

Theres a S110 near me that has the disc brakes. anyways i don't have a S12 but I figured they "rare" and someone on the forums might be interested I can take you and I have tools. Anyways I'm in the Riverside area. So let me know if anyone wants to pick it up

To my knowledge the only S12s to get a LSD stock were some of the Japan spec FJ turbo models.

Sounds like someone might have put some work in before you got the car.

hmmm put the rear on a jack and spin one tire. if both tires spin in the same direction then someone installed a lsd if they spin in opposite direction then you dont have one.. i had many times ive launched hard and both tires hooked up equally... with enough torque you can easily sin the ass around on a peg leg...do the test i mentioned and you'll have your answer

ah ok. its just that the SE 240sx come with LDS so i wondered if the SE 200sx had it too...

no lsd, but ive notices that when you kick it left (wheel counter clockwise) it kicks out easyer...  clockwise the passenger wheel spins.

i use to get lucky with my se and lite up both every once in a wile, i was usually in the middle of the road on the 'crown'

Yea, the VG is puttin out pore torque at the wheels than your KA 240. That helps with roasting both without an LSD.

Matt (seishuku) has an SR20DE+T S12 with a few tweaks, and that thing lit both tires in a parking lot from a stand still going straight- No LSD there either.

...God that thing is quick.

I thought my CA20 had a limited slip. I was a little quick with the clutch in my gravel driveway... It dug it up quite a bit  It was awesome, both tires spun up longer than just a blip too. Pelted my friend with rocks lol
