identifying lsd
 

hey guys, i have a few bad transmission's laying around and one i had on my car earlier this year, its got b16 1-4 gears, i'm sure integra ls 5th gear and lsd, i didn't do the modifications to the transmission, i was given it the way it is. i have a friend with a gsr (non lsd) wanting to purchase the transmission from me so he can rob the lsd out of it. are all b series lsd's the same? i notice on ebay b16 type r lsd's are going cheaper than the itr lsd's, are they different? if there is a difference how can i tell what it is? i presume its an oem type r lsd in it but i'm not sure. The reason i ask is i dont' want the tranny i have to be the b16 version and not work with his gsr transmission, if there is such differences.

Take an axle out, and look through, you see a pin, no lsd. you see straight through, lsd.

Did you even read the paragraph?

B16/LS has a smaller ring gear bolt pattern vs. the GSR/ITR

If it's the B16B LSD (Civic EK9 Type-R), then it is the exact same Torsen LSD as the ITR, no difference.

The normal Viscous B16 LSD's won't fit your GSR tranny though.

ok thats good information to have, but i think what i really need is a way to identify the difference? how can you look at an lsd and tell for sure what kind it is? markings?
