WRX do not have LSD front, centre,
Rear is only a toy lsd
It is always best to use LSD diff oil, or put LSD additive in. to stop wear.
on an 03 it will be worn out already.
If you was to fit a new/recon one you would feel the DIFFerance.
unless you drive like a girl, then it would not make any DIFFerance.

PS only joking about the girl part, some girls can drive hard.
