Thank you, so that rules that out.

You don't even get a rear anti roll bar :giggle:

Nothing to say you can't fit both though ;)

LSD = roughly £800 to buy and a day's labour to fit.

Thanks again guys, proper strssing that i was going to have to fork out £1200 quid.

The actual answer is yes and no. It doesn't have a mechanical LCD that is you see on other cars. However it has an electronic one (EDL) which uses the brakes to slow the faster wheel.

From another thread:

EDL = Electronic Differential Lock
This requires the car to have ABS to operate. This will use the ABS sensors on the main drive axle (front) to sense if one of the drive wheels is rotating faster than the other. It will then brake that drive wheel until both the drive wheels are at the same speed. This works then the accelerator is being used and the brakes are not. Effectively this works as an LSD and is also known as "Fiddle Brakes" and has been used in F1, with manual versions used in tractors, hill climb racing, and 4x4 trail racing. This is always "ON" and cannot be deactivated unless the main fuse for the ABS unit is pulled. When this is working "Active" there is no light that flashes/flickers etc to tell you it is working!


However, a few members on here (eg Devonutopia) have fitted mechanical LCDs, made by Peloquin, with great success.
