Identifying a GSR transmission?

[crewd62]

I might have lucked out and found a gsr trans online, my question is how do i know its really a gsr before i drive a good distance to get it? He said its s80 and possibly an lsd, now i know the ls has the same s80 on it, what else do i look for?

if the linkage is on the tranny you should be able to shift if and find out if its a real gsr tranny or ask for the vin and google it.

if its lsd you should know right away, theres no pin through the diff, and what year is the tranny

No USDM trannys have LSD and no JDM trannys have VINs.

Ok???

No USDM trannys have LSD and no JDM trannys have VINs.

So your saying the USDM type r has no LSD weird, from googling and checking out stock specs the USDM type r does have LSD. Wonder where you got that from.

The OP is talking about a GSR tranny, not Type-R

Even though the post is about a gsr tranny, he prolly should have said no USDM gsr have LSD, pretty general when just saying USDM. Good looking out for your guy tho.

If its an oem jdm gsr it would look like this,

 

[crewd62]

It has no vin plate and has a bar, no lsd does have s80 but everything does, said it came out of a 98 gsr, but they would have a vin plate
