And any information on the LSD equipped to the Toyota Levin/Trueno GT-Apex Silvertop 4A-GE 5 speed and BZ-R Blacktop 4A-GE 6 speed models?

Also do you have any information on the LSD equipped to the Toyota MR2 Turbo models with the 3S-GTE E153 gearbox?

the LSD on supercharged corolla / levin / trueno is interchangeable along all E series transmission,

the Levin supercharged comes iwth a E58 ( LSD ) transmission, this LSD can be installed in E56 ( same tranny non LSD ) and E153 found in MR2 turbo, Camry V6, Solara V6, ES300. << This is veriofied information and I have both trannies apart in case pictures are needed, internally these trannies are identical, except for the differences in years with some having dual synchros and better oil system. the Stock OEM LSD for these transmission was always viscous, in some countries there was a TRD dealer option, pre 1993 this option was hellical LSD, after 93 the options were hellical andclutch type ( usually used only on mr2s )

if the LSD is hellical you'll see a small ( ~ 5mm wide ) hole when looking insdie the transmission axle area, if the hole is rather large ( ~ 10mm ) is non LSD ) for clutch type, you'll be able to see the clutch discs. and OEM Viscous is easy to identyfy, you'll see the bar and a gear right before the bar, I'll try to get a picture of this.


I have heard that this is also true for s54 transmissions, the diff found on MR-S, Levin non supercharged and aftermakrget LSD made for either of these cars can be used on the s54 transmission but I have not personal experience with this fact.
