Default Rear factory lsd most common?

Hey guys,
I was wondering what rear diff was most likely equipped with a torsen lsd?
gs300, sc300, sc400,gs400,ls400?

Right now I have a blown TT auto lsd. I am going on saturday to the junk yard to purchase a rear diff. I would prefer the 3.27 ratio rear gear, but more importantly, I would like a lsd equipped diff.

Also, what years are the diffs interchangable ( 1992-2002)? and what models?

Thanks
Lawrence

None of those listed have a factory lsd. GS400 and GS430 I believe have the ratio you are going for.(direct fit diff)

how did u blow ur lsd? how much power u pushing?

i believe the only way to get your gearing that low is to use an lsd from an NA or TT Auto and put it in the GS400 housing. take a look at the stickies on SF's NA section.

You'll need the GS400 pumpkin with the 3.26 ratio, and either a TT auto or TRD (for a TT auto) differential, for what you're looking for.

I was probably making in range of 650whp on the wastegate spring when it blew. I got wheel hop in 2nd gear and it let go. I was hoping some of the gs400 or sc400 came with lsd from the factory. I am most likely going to get one of those rear ends and install a trd lsd.

thanks for all the help guys. I dont frequent these forums as I am primarily on supraforums.

Wheel hop will do that. My friend blew the rear in his BPU 6-speed by wheel hopping, and it was making upper 400's I believe.
