Hi,

First rime to post here in Sigma-galant. I've been reading some post and learned that my car should have a 10 bolt diff, btw my car is a 79 Lambda Super Touring same as a scorpion, however when i take a look at my car it has an 8 bolter. So my question is, can I used any 8 bolter LSD from a mitsu? I've seen omeone in my area that is selling an 8 bolter diff with LSD however it uses leaf spring and drum brakes. Can i still use the ceter diff to my car? Did Mitsu realy realeased a scorpion with 8 bolt diff?

Thanks in advance

Welcome mate.
As far as I know there are no limited centres for 8 bolt diffs :(
Only the GH late 1979-1980 had the 10 bolt. If yours is what we call a GE 1978-1979 then it will have the 8 bolt. This is of course all based on the Australian product range, which is invariably the shittest options available compared to the rest of the world :P
Hope this helps.

Aaawwww...... So my diff is not that good compared to the 10 bolter. Will it be swappable? I guess the seller is just talking crap what he is selling has one.

Thanks!
