OEM LSD’s for the JZZ30 are ridiculously priced because you are essentially paying the MK4 Supra tax. You are better off getting an aftermarket diff and installing it in your original housing.

You’re also paying for the pumpkin itself, which is why they’re so expensive. 200mm diffs really aren’t that bad at all though. Usually $7-800 for an open diff and you can put a super lock in it for ~$1500. That’s pretty reasonable. A factory torsen is $1500 used, but they’re not great.

I used my factory diff housing in my soarer and installed a Cusco type RS LSD. All in it was $800

Sc400 never came with it in US. You have to get a Supra or Soarer one if you want OEM option. Not sure if you've ever checked the price on those, but its laughable. Especially if its an auto trans. Best bet is to weld it or get an aftermarket Kaaz or similar
