Default Is this a 1.8 open or torsen?
I was wondering if anyone can tell me from the pictures if this is an open or torsen rear end? If it's a torsen, is it the type1 or type2?





Also will the rear controls arms bolt up to the 1.6 chassis?

Thanks. From comparing the pictures, I say it's a Torsen LSD. It's from a 99 so that makes it a type2. Can anyone comfirm?

Thanks Braineak.

I'm a pretty happy camper. Just bought these off a 99 with 7k miles for a song.

Anyway, turbo project is underway.
