Which Differentials Can Be Used In the MK3?

[customs]

Hello.

Just a simple, hopefully straight forward question. Are there any other vehicles out there that have a limited slip differential that can be directly swapped over into the MK3 without any modification/serious modification?

I ask this because I want to find an after market differential for my MK3 that I could pull out of a drift car like a chaser or a mark2. The after market for a MK3 limited slip seems to be very slim.

Thanks in advance for any responses.

AFAIK, the only OEM diff that can be swapped into our differential housings is the T2 torsen out of an IS300.

Edit:

For aftermarket: Cusco, Kaaz, TRD, and I believe OS Giken all make diffs for the MK3

Kaaz and TRD are on the lower side iirc and Cusco and OS Giken are $2k + (usd)

the supra carrier assembly inside is the same design as the v6 toyota 4x4s. http://www.gearinstalls.com/supralsd.htm link this articale.

based on his tear apart and inspection, i would assume that the lockers for the toyota trucks would also fit in the housing, like the arb air locker, and others.

i see your in canada like me, i do have a spare LSD, pm me for details if you want.

can u use the diff out the sc300 400 ?

My understanding is that the sc diffs can be used in an mk4 but will not fit mk3s
