I was wondering if someone could help me out on this question i have. I Have an 87' N/A and i was wonderong if there is any factory LSD's i can put in mine, would an LSD out of an 86-88 GXL work? Or is there any fairly cheap ones?
Thanks!

 

I swapped out my ENITRE sub frame. I bought a parts car, it was very simple. However there was a Miata LSD that was supposed to fit properly.

 

get the whole differential from a 86-88 GXL, and it should bolt in.

 

Is there any fairly cheap aftermarket Lsd's that will bolt right in?

 

I belive there is a Miata one. Try searching for LSD, or differential.

 

PM'ing you...

 

Which year of Miat has the lsd that will bolt in? And will that work with my stock 87' N/A? And another question how many hp will the stock miata lsd withstand? If the stock miata lsd will work i might buy that, but i'd like some input on this subject before i buy one and find out it doesn't work, could someone please help me out,
Thanks,

 

a diff from a s4 gxl is what you want.
it is a clutch type lsd and will bolt onto your 87.
look for a tag on the pumpkin that says "limited slip blah blah"

 

Ok, i understood it all except that....

So, if I buy the pre-90' GXL rear differential it will bolt right in my rear-end, am I right?

 

yes, but you want a 86-88 GXL differential. not the 89.
the 89 would not be a clutch type limited slip.

 

would the miata lsd fit as well as that? ^

**edit: oh yeah btw which miatas can i get em from?

 

hehe i have an '86 GXL love driving it (must port engine . . )

 

It doesnt hold hp...It withstands torque...torque destorys rear ends.

 

I believe its from any of the 1.8L Miatas. Thats 93+ but I could be wrong about the years.

 

its from a 94+ miata, they were given lsd's
