Well you are right about that, but after driving even FWD Nissan's equipped with an LSD i'm more than convinced it is essential especially for a RWD chassis with such a bad open diff.. For anything but normal driving its holding you back, especially in poor road surface conditions. You should see the way this 25 year old 3000LB Nissan put down power (3L V6) to the front (completely bald) all season tires in pouring rain. (VLSD)
