Pretty sure LSD was an option on NAs, though rare.

Yes stockhatch is correct, It was a rare option on the N/A 5 spds but most of the time they are open diffs.
If someone has the rare 5 speed supra lsd they would not be selling it for $250.

If you want a "legit" LSD buy an OS Giken. The Torsens SUCK!

I would agree with that too. Buy a clutch type LSD over a torsen if you can afford it.

If he opens it up, you can for sure tell if its an LSD or not. If it is, it is a steal at $250.

Here is how to tell the difference in them by looking:
