- If the numbers T283 are located in by the VIN on the bottom right hand corner of the plate on the firewall, right after it says T50, the car was originally equipped with LSD, if the VIN instead has T282, the car was not originally equipped with an LSD"



If you see a VIN 'AE86' with the DOHC 4AGE then it's been swapped. If you don't mind a swap, make sure it's the GTS rear end
