Its a Torsen stands for Torque Sensing, no need special LSD fluid with additives if you are thinking of changing

At least someone gets it...

The brown lsd increases torque and mpg.

torsen = torque sensing
Torsen (or TorSen) = a specifictype of torque sensing LSD patented by the Torsen corporation.

I believe that the LSD in the RX-8 is a Tochigi Fuji torque sensing model.
