HLSD? How do you know?

I performed a basic search for "HLSD" and "LSD" and some other searches but almost no results with them.

I just bought a 2k2 BOB 6MT, how do I tell if it has HLSD or not?

Its a Differental that allows equal power to all four wheels. you can also tell by the pedals in your car they are silver with holes.

Technically, HLSD doesn't always deliver equal power to both drive wheels. It channels power to the wheel with more traction. In a straight line, that may equate the power between the two, but that doesn't always apply while taking a turn.

Also, don't go by the pedals, but instead go by the trans axle code, because many people without HLSD swap out the black pedals for the aluminium pedals, ie. Soonerfan, which is why is always so bitter, because he doesn't have HLSD.

Plenty of threads on this out there already...

Lol!
Sorry, I felt like a noob asking this question. I've been using nissan forums for 5 years now. This one is by far the best and most organized one.
