2009 NC question

[miataspeedracer]

Other than calling Mazda with a VIN, how can you tell if an '09 NC has a limited slip? Any other options that give it away?

Thanks. Guess I'm looking for a stand-alone Suspension Package to get the LSD...

You can always add an LSD to any car for around $600 from Mazdaspeed. The OEM suspension is soft, even if they are Bilsteins.

But if you email mazda customer service the vin number they will email you back a copy of the window sticker. Atleast they did in 2007 when i bought my wife her 2006. And I was able to verfy it was a sport with the susspension pack.

I just bought a 2009 PRHT and I called Mazda with the vin. Mine has the suspension pkg but I don't have yellow shocks. The car has 20k and totally unmodified. I don't think someone would pay for the pkg and then change the shocks back to factory shocks within 20k of buying it.

Perhaps it went to Miata Technologies for some completely unrelated minor service. (Yes, I went there.)

LOL....I've been there too!

I know you can jack up the rear of the car and spin a wheel to determine if an LSD is there, though someone else will have to clarify what it should/shouldn't do with a Torsen-type (Togichi-Fuji blah-blah) diff.
