Yes. A limited slip differential...goes in the differential.

most GM apps are different due to a different carrier....not as in cell phone carrier or cable provider....talkin about the thing the ring and spiders mount to. the smaller series carriers are different than larger and is usually split by a 3.23 or a 3.73 ratio in RWD applications. so, if you had a 3.23 and wanted 3.73 you'd need the .73 carrier....or if you had a 2.73 n wanted 3.23 you already have the .23 carrier and would only need the ring/pinion setup...


i have no experience in FWD setups cuz most ppl just order a beffy trans to fix the prob. and if you look up the info i believe you can use the same trans as the celica/TC and you can get your 6-spd easy since the GTS is all over the junk yards now.

IDK, a LSD automatic runs off of rpms or a computer. Manuals are all gear driven. I dont know if they will be compatable.

final drive is a ring and pinion just like a differential or rear. only difference is the 'driveshaft' is actually an axle-shaft or half shaft...
