What’s the cheapest car you can get with an LSD?
Because I really, really, really, want a car with an LSD (Preferably RWD too.) It seems like they’re almost rare, even among sports cars.
I’m thinking my best bet would be an older Mustang or Camaro since LSD’s have always been a fairly common option on them, right?

This might actually be the correct answer, although it’s tricky to actually find one - on many years, it was an option independent of the trim level.

It’s actually pretty aggressive, just turning sharply at low speed makes the inner wheel scrub a bit. I imagine it’ll skid on loose surfaces, but it’s tall enough that I’m not sure I want to try

Be careful, the FWD SR20s had a weak spot on the trans case that was prone to breaking (at least on Sentra SE-Rs, if memory isn’t failing me).

There’s probably other even less expensive options in the JDM or Euro markets though.

any GM truck you can check for RPO code G80. Find the RPO codes inside the glovebox find G80 and you have a lsd or a locking rear. There are several type of G80 rears ranging from a clutch based limited slip diffs or older true mechanical locking rears. Never do a burnout on a clutch based g80, it will blow up.

Older Mustangs are good candidates, but you have to stay away from the V6 models to get Trac-Lok (unless you happen to find one that’s been swapped).

Any manual subaru newer than...03? they aren’t good LSD’s, but they are Lsd’s. Older Toyota’s had a torsen unit as an option. (celica ST205, SW11/SW20 mr2, Rav4, etc)

96-99 Infiniti I30 (standard on the I30t, optional on the base I30. It’s “optional” but most I30's do have it. Identified by a tag in the hood. The transmission code will end in a V if it has LSD)
It wasn’t available on the Maxima in the US, only the I30.

90-93 could be had with a viscous LSD, and 94+ with a Torsen LSD. It always came on the r/sport brake/suspension package cars and the higher time level cars. It also came on some of the lower trim level cars, depending upon the exact option package.

Trucks are generally the easiest way to a locker/LSD. Any Chevy with the Z71 package has a locker. RPO code G80 is what you’re looking for.
S10s/Sonomas used the same rear diff as Camaros/Firebirds. My S10 didn’t have a locker but it was as base as they came save the 4.3. I was gonna swap one in from a friend’s Camaro parts car before I traded it in, basically a direct bolt in.
