Yes, at least that is what I read from 300mania forum, there was one more picture somewhere on that forum, it had same looking lsd unti as I do. It was in a box and there was some gears and parts still attached to it.

Here it is:

Those pics makes things bit more clear, at least for me

Edit:Lot of typos and loose sentences

In 300mania there is now also some information from LSD's in 300-serie, check out Bilbo's pictures.

Hehe, now these two forums are crosslinked to each other

Interesting! What happends if you put one wheel on gravel and one on tarmac and does a full rpm hard start?

My guess is loud crunch and car won't move anymore

Sounds like LSD for me too, specially if both wheels did turn into same direction when you tested it.

Nice! But still can't se anything that tells me that it is a LSD..

And where is the other sidegear?

Maybe the Volvo LSD is limited on one gear? Not both like the one described in the webpage I wrote before..

Have never opened a Volvo 300 diferential  

http://www.janiervast.com/kuvat/lsd/differential.jpg
Look part number 7, that is reqular open differential gears and gear case, now this part that I have replaces that stock part.

These gears in this LSD unti don't move with hand powers, but that stock part that is open differential, there I can easily rotate gears.
I think that lsd clutch and plates are inside of that black lid that you can see in those lsd pictures, there is around 3cm space for them.

As you can see from above link that other sidegear is in that big gear plate side, it attachs to hub, that has bores, with bolt  (245nm power needed for it) that goes trough hub,  and that hub attachs to driveshaft with 6 10mm bolts.

Could be that it is not very strong part, but other driveline parts in 300-series are not too strong either, when comparing to 200-serie

Bit hard to explane as I have never opened any differential and also english is not my best language

Edit:some mistakes removed

Edit2: Oh yes, this LSD unit that I have contains parts 2 and 7 from that picture
Please feel free to ask more if you have questions, I try to answer  as well as I can.

Maybe they reveal more secrets from that lsd

Okey! After some searching on the net I found something that is called "HOR Technologies" that have made Cams for Audi and some other things but not more info about the Company and the LSD:s for Volvo 360  

Is it a LSD with friction plates+discs in it that you can replace when they get worn? And is it adjustable so that the torque of the lsd is adjustable?

Here I found a site with lots of good info about the open diff, lsd, locking diff and so on..
http://www.houseofthud.com/differentials.htm

And if you click "Limited Slip Differentials - A Semi Technical Description" at that site you found a guide how to fit a lsd in or how to remake it with new slipplates..

I think that it has clutch plates, but I think that it can be adjusted only by changing parts and those can be hard to find.
I don't know much else than it should be some kind of LSD, even seller did not know any better from it.

Actually I have never seen what is inside of that part, good link now I know bit more how it works

I think that I will get that lsd soon installed with my friend, I just need to buy proper oil first and some seals for drive shafts as differential is leaking a bit.

Hello JTbo! Welcome to 300power Club!

Did you bought the LSD new?

It was used one, there is 11.87 stamped to below of text 'HOR'. My guess is that HOR is manufacturer and 11.87 is date.

However LSD is redone at some date, new gears and internal parts, what ever those would be

I have seen 2 of these LSD sets available in Finland, one was which I bought and I'm not sure who got 2nd. When talking to people it sounds like there might not be very many in whole country.

Sorry, I'm not yet guru with cars, but I'm learning everyday, that is why I installed megasquirt and converted my car from carb to fuel injection, I wanted to learn it

I was on track yesterday and again I found out why I need that LSD to get installed, only one wheel spinning wild on corners
From my homepage you can see videos and other stuff

I have bought LSD for my 360, that should be that rare Volvo 360 version.

Here is some pictures from it:
http://www.janiervast.com/kuvat/lsd/

I have also Megasquirt installed and K-cam, but else pretty much like stock setup, still I need to get that LSD installed because I do have problems on track now

I just don't know how to install one and I have not yet found anyone that can or knows what tools or parts is needed to get LSD in.

After I posted message I started looking once again these parts in my pictures, then I realized that one is LSD and other is stock part, so all I need to do is take out that stock part from differential and install this LSD part in. Also pics in this thread helped a lot
