If you guys understood my post the the 370Z has a very large choice of many aftermarket LSD Diffs.

Which is why opted not to go with the Sport knowing that the viscous LSD included is inferior to the aftermarket Torsen type.

I can live with that, just the thaught of one wheel drive with a sports car makes me uneasy.
The easiest way to tell if you have an open diff , is put the rear on jack stands, and turn one tire, if the other tire spins the opposite direction , it's an open diff ; if it turns int he same, it's got a LSD.

Note that Helical limited slip, is different ; it only biases torque and is common on FWD cars.
