How do you confirm Suretrac is fitted to a jap import.I know the GL model has it but how do you tell if its a GL model or not.

I don't know if I'm 100% right here, so no flames plse.

I do believe that if you have a front and rear suretrac (or any other LSD) and a center viscous LSD like some STI's have, all the wheels will rotate in the same direction if you spin one. Obviously the car must be lifted off the ground. My STI RA does this. Spin any wheel and the rest of them will follow it in the same direction.

If the front has an open diff, then spinning one front wheel will result in the other spinning the other way.

Hope this helps (and not misleads...).

DISCLAIMER: I'm not 100% certain.
:P

Nail it round a roundabout, if it understeers then it does not have the diff. I you suddenly get pulled into the roundabout you have

Hi RT,no I'm trying to confirm one that I'm thinking of buying has Suretrac.When u say spin the wheel you mean manually with the ignition off? Its going to be tricky to ask the seller to raise the car so I can spin the wheels.Any other ideas guys?

Deep Singh

Sammy is this being pulled around feeling quite easy to pick up or is it quite subtle? Any other ideas guys.

Deep, I can confirm from the test driving I've done that the feeling is very noticeable, you can feel the diff working, car almost "jumps" round the corner.

Sam, give me a call, I have an idea that could be useful re over boost, could get together and try it as and when.
