Depends what you're using the car for, in my opinion. I have a TRD 2-way for my AE86, but I'd much rather run a Torsen T2 in it for Auto-x. Both good.

Oh I agree! Activity-dependent decision for sure...plus budget-dependent too though. Lol!

Yeah we put the OS LSD into my brother's JZA80. Needed something stronger than the T1.

Nice cars, and nice install. I tried ordering a T2 LSD off eBay for the IS300. Turns out the guys sent me the open diff, wasn't correctly labeled on their part, so I gotta deal with returning it now. I may just go with the OS Giken LSD as there aren't too many IS300 LSDs floating around on eBay anymore. Could be that a lot of CL members are hopping on this mod haha.

You could try calling local wreckers as well, that way you can confirm before trying to ship it, etc.

You will also save on shipping going this route.
