So from the beginning hunt up a complete RT 141 rear diff assembly including hand brake cables (which is very important). This gives you a 23 spline BW diff which is about the same strength as your celica/corona diff - if you have a RA40 or AE86 just swap the whole diff assembly over. I am not sure about the hand brake cables for the 40/86 but everything else should work out. Another thing that I have not really investigated, but if you have a 40 or 86 you may be able to make use of an Australian Nissen Skyline Silhouette. These come with a 4 pinion 28 spline BW LSD (like a VL turbo but stronger as the VL is only 2 pinion). The whole assembly is exactly the same width as the RT141 ? you never know your luck in a big city - it all just may fit. Of course the other option is look at fitting the whole Skyline assembly, which I will be planning to do to my 23 in the future. As I seem to be breaking diffs, would like a lsd and I currently use 25mm spaces because of the offset of the wheels that I have so the additional width of the Skyline diff would be great..
