Chime in LSD owners.

I'm going to test drive a 2003 6speed Titanium edition maxima with 29k miles on it, the guy said it has everything when i talked to him on the phone but when I asked him about Limited Slip Differential, he said he didn't know.

Is there a way to tell when I go to look / test drive the car? Thanks in advance.

If you have a 6 speed with an open diff the code will be: RS6F51A

A as in open diff

If you have a 6 speed with a Helical Limitd slip Differential the code will read RS6F51H

H H as in Helical.
I got this off of this one thread, there is some good info.

Ha! I just called the dealership and put 5 bucks as a deposit on the car, sorry bud. By law they have to hold it for me for 30 days!

Just kidding, whoever would do something like that is absolutely, positively and probably loves

GL with the car, sounds sweet....

Sweet COLOR. I have the exact same car with ALMOST the exact same mileage. (31K miles)

How much are they asking out of curiosity?

old school way:

you can always do a crazy launch from the line, then look at your tire's burnout lines, should be symmetrical.

Not recommended, easier on the car to just look at the firewall for an H on the tag.

Well I wasn't sure, I sure hope it would as well. I think every titanium owner has had it from what I've gathered.

They are asking 15999 for it. It says its "Exterior Color: Polished Titanium", from the pics the front and side views look Sterling Mist but from the back it looks Gray Lustre, its odd.

What dealership?

If it is Nemith... Give Mark Nemith a good swift kick in the nuts for me (or that f@g with all the gray hair...).
