I am really not an expert in the lsd differencial.
All I did was read the specs first before I posted. lol
06+ gs/is/sc all share the same 3.769 differencial in the US.
That may explain why some members said 06+ sc430 felt a bit quicker than 02-05.
It is likely the same in your region.
I think you should leave your differencial as is especially those 06+ is/gs guys haven't been able to do anything creative to it so far.

Many people love the supra tt diff (the entire pumpkin) mainly because of the 15% torque gain from the difference in gear ratio, not really the lsd itself.
99.99% of the sc430 owners will never track their car, so the lsd is pretty much useless to them.
In your case, you get only as little as 4% torque gain assuming the whole pumpkin can be directly bolted on without an issue.

Regarding the swap, it works for fact; my dealer actually offered to install a unit without voiding the warantee if i buy a new one through them; around $3K !!!!!
I'll leave it till last, if i feel that it's necessary then ill look into it further.. For now, i have more important priorities

Go with BC racing coils.. Theyre quieter and still ride very nice. I only bought megans cause its stiffer... Bc coils have rubber mounts and the megans dont.. So in time when theres no music playing, youre gonna hear your suspension squeekin'.. Worse when it rains.

Sorry reason i ask is that im not too familiar with sport cars C/O.. I just happen to hear tein quite frequently.. Would like to save ofcourse but wouldnt mind paying a little extra if it were to affect positively on the long run.
I am looking for a huge reduction in Body Roll and obviously a mild handling advantage.
Thanks
