NA are open diff. What you want is the auto TT diff. which came with the torsen LSD.

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:
