Are you sure ?  I thought the syncro used the viscous diff.  Something
about a silicon glop ( there I go again ) that when there was slip it
would heat up, when it heated up it got to be like a solid or something
instead of torsen or old type sliding sleeves etc...

The answer:

Yep. I'm sure.  All *other* synchros are viscous. The 1984-87 quantum synchro 
wagon
is a 4kq with a VW badge and a high trunk lid.
