ah no problem, i thought as much but it doesnt hurt to ask!

is there any way to identify an LSD from and standard?

Jack the arse up in the air and turn the one of the wheels, dependant on what happens to the other one you can see from this.

Can't remember so do a search on www.sxoc.com for the solution.

cheers

ive heard this one before, if its an LSD the other wheel should spin in the opposite direction...i think.

i like the grass idea, never though of it. if you take off sharp enough you should be able to leave a black line on the tarmac too surely!!

nice one, cheers guys

The rear wheels should spin in the same direction if it's an LSD and opposite for an open diff. Make sure it's in neutral too.

This works for viscous diffs but I believe the Omega LSD is not a viscous type. :-/

The other way to test if you have an LSD...

Park with one rear wheel on a grass verge (NOT your neighbours lawn, I suggest) and pull away sharply with traction control off. If the wheel on the grass just spins and you don't get a lot of traction it's not an LSD.

anyone trying this on a regular basis will no doubt become unpopular with the local residents  

Undoubtedly. But "local" is easily redefined  by driving a little while before trying it
