having owned a few S3 rx7's i know a lot about their weak points, In open diff form they are very week in the planetry gear sections with a few mild 12A's managing to blow them up, i killed a few behind my worked 13B NA also.
once i had a 13b Turbo i then upgraded to a mazdaspeed LSD, i was never totally happy with the LSd also (no where near as good as a TRD, cusco or KAAZ unit) as it too was only a 2 pinion lsd and the preload wasnt that crash hot, I suppose that can be adjusted but i couldnt be arsed and i sold the car.
snap an axle and you will have a VERY hard time finding another one (finding a JDM sprinter axle is EASY) for under 300 PER axle...
wheel bearings are also shitful, not liking much sideloads, but that wouldnt be much of an issue in a 500 kg clubman i doubt. Rear brakes are very effective for what they are also.
I'd go the toyota unit EVERY TIME....
