the main ones are the Auto TT diff from a supra, the Trd diff, or the Kaaz diff.
depending on what drifting and how many ways you want it to lock, those should cover you.

the aggressive lsd's tend to make a lot of noise, especially the 2 way. you can find reviews on all of them, sometimes just search for the supra auto instead of an SC. same differential.

Any 2 way diff would be the way to go for any type of drift car. I have had plenty of built 240's and I still do. All of them have the 2 way and its awesome but if I had an input about what diff you should use then I would say go with either the TRD or ATS Carbonetics 2 ways. And yes 2 ways are noisy rearends. But if you are on a budget and this is your track car then a welded diff would be fine I just couldnt recommend it for dailying though.

No need to spend a ton of money on a diff.

This is what I do and highly recommend it, if you want to save money.

Weld your stock diff. It'll cost you around 60 bucks and it's RESPONSIVE, obviously, it's welded haha.

Find a second drift for daily driving. I found myself a Torsen out of an auto Supra for 80 bucks. When I go drifting, I just swap out my diffs. Doesn't take more than an hour. Trust me, you'll get used to it. Then swap them back for when you're going to daily drive.

I just think spending a thousand bucks on a diff is ridiculous. I know a professional D1 drifter, Forrest Want, and he uses a welded in his personal drift car. I know you said, "I'd rather do things the right way", but what's wrong about welding your diff?

yea nothing wrong with welding I was thinking about it and I might be welding my spare diff also save money and you can use that money for other things.
