Default Need some first hand experience

Hey, looking to pick up an lsd for my Sc and I wanted to get some opinions from those who had experience with both the torsen and a 2 way (like the trd clutch type lsd), or just your remarks on owning and driving either. This car isn't my daily and sees no more than 2-3 thousand miles a year. So long term wear isn't the biggest issue. I'm more concerned with the street characteristics of the car as I will probably drive it mostly on the street. Will the 2way be a real chore in the city and tight corners? Will the torsen leave me wanting more? Any and all first hand knowledgeable opinions will be helpful.

I can't say I have first hand experience but I've read a lot about it recently. Going to supraforums and they have more info on this kind of stuff. It seems like the TRD is the way to go, it can hold the power and goesnt have any of the clunking issues after the 1000 miles break in period. Here is a thread on it on supraforums. http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?646827-LSD-TRD-1.5-way-or-KAAZ-1.5-Way-or-KAAZ-2-Way-need-help
