Default lsd

Shopping around for a lsd for my drift box. Ive heard of great things from KaaZ but Im on the fence as I always try to go with the Oe performance division of the car manufaturer (TRD, NISMO ect..) I know that the stock mkiv torsen lsd will break and has unpredictale lockup. Im leanin tward the TRD one but Im looking for feedback.

If you are doing a lot of drifting that will be painful for the diff. So your best bet is to stay away from standard Torsens. OS Gilken is VERY good, but expensive. KAAZ and TRD will both work very well, just be certain it's not for a 6speed Supra, as they have a diff that's not compatible with the SC pumpkin. Any diff made for the Auto Supra will fit with no troubles.

I also had a NISMO im my hatch and liked it aswell. The SC weighs significantly more than a s13 so the LSD quality may be a bit more of an issue especially when drifted on the regular. Any one torn up a KAAZ or a TRD with heavy drifting?

What are your purposes for the car besides drifting, whats the ratio of track to street? 60/40?

Is it a daily ect?
