Just standard LSD from a Sport model.
Don't want to pay through the nose.
Also if anyone has any suspension components lying around I might be interested, things like wishbones, but mainly the lower arms.

I haven't, bit dubious about trying a salvage place as I couldn't identify it from the outside! Don't want to pay good money for a diff I already got! LOL!

Your right, the outside of a LSD looks identical to the outside of a normal one. Only the Altezza RS200 has a different shell, that one has cast heat dissipation fins on the underside.

You can't tell by turning the wheels either, you have to take the back end off to see what's inside.

The Altezza one will fit the IS200 BUT you have to change over the drive shafts also, as there are more bolts on the IS200 ones.

Some of the earlier ones didnt apparently.

If you want to check to make sure you have an LSD you will need to look at your VIN plate under the bonnet.

If it ends in "B" then it's LSD. If it ends in "A" then you have an open diff.

It'll say something like A02B
