aren't you supposed to know these things?
1. Positraction is General Motors terminology... we don't have a GM differential
2. We have a Limited Slip Differential, which allows some deviation between tire speeds (with Posi, both rear wheels spin the same speed all the time). LSD > Posi for any racing where turning is involved, Posi > LSD in a straight line
3. More specifically, we have a Viscous type LSD. Most important to know about this is that it is not rebuildable.
4. The break away difference, I'm pretty sure, is how much deviation in speed the differential allows between the two wheels.

lol well the only reson i siad posi traction was because i called curtousy nissan they said that makes both tires lock up like posi rear thats what they said the new LSD does ,i just wondering i no the differnce i just curous what the differnce between the stock and that NISMO LSD is
