Viscous limited-slip differential (VLSD)
 
How do I know if my touring with the sport package has the Viscous limited-slip differential (VLSD)?

I own a 2010 40th anniversary.

If it has the sport package, it does.

1. Jack up rear of the Z
2. Place jack stand in factory locations
3. Remove rear diff cover
4. Check for LSD
5. Replace cover
6. Lower Z

Or, you could just read Red-Zed's post.

Don't mind me. I just have LSD envy.

I'd still check. I've heard stories about Nissan workers leaving them out.



OK I made that up.

Thanks for that useful tidbit.:ugh2:

I just gave a more general response to help others that may be curious...

I was posting it for the benefit of the OP, hence the "your 40th"

Guys thanks for the helpful info.

drive to an empty parking lot at night, rev to 2k, drop the clutch and give it some throttle. Place car in park, get out, check for two tire marks, guesswork complete :tup:

Anyone know how I can tell if I got the Persimmon interior?

kenchan 03-23-2011 04:00 PM

you have to take the trunk hatch off the car.

Xander117 03-23-2011 04:01 PM

Step one : Look through Window
Step two : Break window
Step three : Lick seat
Step Four: Look at tongue in mirror

If tongue is orange you have persimmon seats. :stirthepot:

Nitex 03-23-2011 04:40 PM

LoL ken most likely bog yes.. Unless he has some baldies!

ProfessorDave 03-23-2011 08:05 PM

Here's what I do: I do a one wheel peel when no one is looking. Then I go back to the same spot, but facing in the opposite direction. When a sport package Z shows up I do another peel.

I look in the rear view mirror as they scratch their heads, reading their lips as they say "how come his sport Z has 18" rims and no spoiler?"

Then I pull over in a dark area and sob.

What if the wheel happens to spin on the same line the second time?

OT - When I went car shopping I had one saleshole keep calling it a vicious differential. He said it like 10 times and inferred that it meant that it was angry and powerful..... I couldn't tell if he was joking, but he seemed serious.

Yes, I did get a lot of Freddie Mercury comments back in the Scirocco days. I would argue that it was more of a Tom Selleck look, but that just made people laugh. :shakes head:
