No it doesn't have lsd, few people have recommended it though so if you can afford it might ne worth while. Will spin in the dry but when ur used to it I found it fine, even in wet if you know the limits.

lsd would make the handling and performance alot better. along the lines of - because of the power now , having lsd will/should give you more confidence when cornering at speed. saying that though, good tyres and decent suspension is also another factor of feeling confident with a harder driving style. put it another way,

if you wanted to take this car round a track and "go for gold" lsd would definately be needed.

hi keiran, sorry about the lack of contact.... work work work, get home and basically sleep. ( groundhog day )
the scala has come along way since i took over ownership, front engine mount fitted ( major difference ) weitec coilovers and obviously the alloys in the photo. the wheels now have all round michelin pilot sport 3, a good choice of tyre with this power in a car that weighs less than a ton. ( still prefer my uniroyal rain expert 3's though ). get in contact buddy. i now have this week off ( 9th - 15th )
