I used a gs400 diff for the gearing and bought a used thorsen LSD unit from an auto supra. Worked out great.
What i have learned from all this is most every rear wheel drive Toyota/ Lexus went to an A" series diff in the early nineties. So basicly if you keep it in the same Letter everything interchanges. Housings and mounting points may be different but all the internals swap out.
We work with allot of older supra and cressida stuff which are G series and have interchanged them.
So after studying some axle codes and looking to which car has an lsd available for the A series they are the IS as an option and natraully the mk4 supra auto, not to be confused with the six speed supra diff as that is a B series.
You can read the axle codes on your door to help figure the family/series and gear ratio and if it had the LSD option.

PEDAL PERFECTION
got a hold of another IS pedal today(GAS) and got it in there.
Breakdown on pedals used.
Gas pedal from IS300 bent to align with others.
Brake is a combonation of GS mount and Cressida pedal. (Its just a piece of metal) with a IS300 pedal cover.
Clutch is from a IS300 it has the skinniest of mounting brackets that i could find which is needed in the crowded area up there. Once that was final we worked of of the clutch position to arrange the others.
Looking to try out the E brake from a SC car as i had to eliminate it in favor of the clutch pedal.
