    No they don't. I've had two and I had to put LSDs in both. The only car that came with a LSD was the TII.

    you are incorrect.
    you got robbed on both of them, or the LSD was shot, i have a GXL differential in my sport and it will spin them both up.
    and im sure you are aware that the turbo II and NA rx7 had totally different drivetrains right? the tranny, driveshaft and differential are all non-interchangeable between turbo and NA.
    2 NA models had LSD, GXL and GTUs,
    the S4 (86-88) LSD was a clutch type, and the S5 LSD (89-91/2) was a torsen (torque sensing) type, just like the miata. In fact, you can gut a miata differential, and set it up in an NA RX7 differential housing.

    S4 option sheet.

    S5 option sheet


    [/jerk] sorry, i like things to be factual.

    That car looks so familiar. I think I worked on it before. If you like the car, keep it & learn about it. They are fun cars. The NAs are the most reliable, though the 89-91 do not last as long as the 86-88. If you want to sell, then do that. But do not let someone who thinks they know everything about rotaries tell you to because you are new to them. G/L with the car & if you need help with it, feel free to PM me.
