Thats a huge negative. I know a few guys with welded diffs on their 240s. It may work for them but its not the same thing for the SC. They say the welds will break on our cars because they are much heavier and have more power. And plus you might get annoyed of hearing your tires chirp and skip every time you make a turn.
