Talking Where do you put it?

Do you drop the tab in the gas tank like a fuel injector cleaner or something. Does the dash then show up in phycadelic colors? Just kidding, it seems like the limited slip differential is not installed on many cars. May be a slight chance of finding one out of a wrecked IS.

Default Internet Wrecking Yards

I have heard of nationwide links between wrecking yards for parts searches. Maybe you could find one and post a request for the rear end assembly when one becomes available. Do they have any noticible differences from the stock rear end and the LSD one?
Next time I'm under the car I'll look mine over.

Why dont you try to get a hold of Kaaz or Quaife and let them know whats going on with your car. Your going to have a pretty high profile car so they might hook you up

Im going to need an lsd too but I havent figured out which one yet. Maybe you can get them to prototype it on your car. TurboIS has the TRD LSD on his car. I think the trd lsd will run you somewhere between 800-1000

from what I hear they make awesome LSD's. Would a LSD from an Altezza work properly on our cars even though thay have different engines/transmissions?

Cusco makes VERY GOOD LSDs. They also have good suspension work.

You need to be careful before you order a LSD from Japan.. I the first LSD I got from TRD was for an Altezza and it did not fit. So when I called TRD they airshiped me a new LSD. The IS300 and the Altezza have different rearend's.. The Is300 has the same rearend as Cressida, This is what TRD told me...:eek:
