No GT4 was available form the factory with a rear LSD, so I severely doubt the Caldina has one either. Cheapskate Toyota, all the Subaru turbos since they started the Liberty/Legacy have had a rear LSD. I'm not sure what centre diff are in Toyotas, as it should still be supplying some power to the front wheels which should then pull slightly. Are you sure that the torque split is 40/60 front/rear? All the GT4's until the ST205 had it the other way round, altough Toyota may have just put the ST205 gearbox in the ST215 Caldinas. If you are going to replace a diff, I'd definitely recommend a rear LSD for the 4wd, you can actually get a rear drift going if you get the technique right (and only on slippery surfaces). I could do this regularly in my Legacy GT. Before this maybe get the centre diff checked out, unless someone else can shed light on the centre diff arrangement. [Report message to a moderator]
