Sorry for the newbie question but I'm a little confused with the 2nd Gen models. I've been browsing thru the posts on this board and I notice there's different designations like GXL, GTU .. what's the specifications of each?

Is there a website that details the specs of each model and year?

Another question ... I've read a couple posts about LSD's ... which models had the LSD's and year? What kind of LSD is it?

Hey thanks Cabrio, great link. The article alludes to the fact that pre-89's 2-way mechanical LSD requires more maintenance with a gear oil additive. What kind of additive are they talking about? Does that mean that the pre-89 LSD is more prone to failure?
