Can anyone suggest which of the small Japanese front wheel drive cars have limited slip diffs as standard equipment.
I would like to source something which I could either modify or remanufacture to fit a Mini.
Cheers Dave

I looked into this a while ago, I wanted to use a viscus LSD out of a nissan pulsar or trx but found out the oil used in these diffs is different to that used in mini motor/gearbox. If anyone has any info on any conversions they have done it would be great if they could contact me via ausmini.
