As per title really i just wanted to know for sure??
:wave
yep came as standard
Not wanting to disagree with Mike, I have had a cabrio and a coupe, neither had LSD, I understood it was an optional extra from Mazda. My mates T11 didnt have it either although it has now. I may be wrong but mine definately didnt have it.

NB: all 3rd gens have it.
Hi guys,
How exactly would I know if my car has a LSD? And if it does how can I check if it\'s healthy/doing it\'s job? I drive a 1st gen 7. It\'s an \'83 (Aussie series 3) which as far as I know didn\'t come with an LSD, but I think it\'s had a back axle from a later model which did.
Am I right in thinking a LSD makes it more difficult to put the back end out of line when accelerating through turns?
Hoping you people who actually have a bit of mechanical knowledge can tell me ...... I can just about identify the steering wheel. Beyond that it\'s a bit more difficult!:confused:
was it just the US spec TII\'s that came with a LSD as standard then ? If it was an option from Mazda its likely to be quite rare as it probably cost megabucks !
Not sure about the US models. I would have thought it was quite expensive.
As for finding out if its LSD, i was always told, jack it up so both driven wheels are off the floor. Turn one wheel, there should be a little resistence but the other wheel should turn the same way. If it turns the opposite way it isnt. But i may be wrong!

thats why i asked as the diff in my TII spares car dosn\'t do the normal LSD tests.
Oh well :(.
