Hi,
I just purchased a 1992 lexus SC300 5-speed manual Right now, it is being painted metallic black. Now I live in Michigan, and I WILL drive it in the winter. You might say stupid, but I will take some precautions such as good winter tires and an LSD. Now I need to pick a right LSD, and that’s what I need help with.
I know a person that is selling a LSD rear end from a 1998 Toyota supra TT auto. According to what I have read in these forms, the auto TT rear ends have a 3.769 ratio and my SC300 has a 4.08 ratio. Is this correct?
What will happen to my acceleration and the reading on my speedometer?
Will the supra rear end be a direct fit into my SC300 or will I need other parts such as the axles and what not?
If the auto supra rear end is not a good fit for the SC300, what LSD should I look for?
Thank you.
