Diff from the factory
What do we have from the factory for a diff? And why does everyone upgrade to the quaife lsd?

Stock comes with an open differential, in other words the wheel with least resistance is the one that rotates and the other may stay still, with an LSD both wheels will rotate equally.

This place is a joke.
The ESP uses the brakes to apply pressure to the wheel that is spinning, thus transfering power to the opposite wheel. When that wheel starts spinning it does the same. So, in effect we have an electronic limited slip system. A mechanical locking system keeps one wheel from spinning from the start.
