What has an F series 3.7-3.9:1 lsd?

I need something to stop my cressida revving its tits off at 100. Since the addition of the w58, I cannot use first gear for anything except burnouts. Although this is not neccesarily a bad thing, I am sick of the 4.11 ratio. What can I get a 3.7 out of? I suspect mz-11, but what is the ratio. Anyone know where I can get one? LSD would just be a bonus.
Thanks
Mal

RA65 manual has 3.5:1, and I think the auto is either 3.7 or 3.9. MA61 manual is 3.9:1. You could also try looking at IRS Corona's (eg RT142), some of those have F series diffs.

By the way, I finally got the MX23 diff in the celica last weekend. It is also a 3.9.

I'm in the process of swapping the 3.58 ratio out of IRs RA65 celica into the live axle centre or the wagon (F series) will let you know how it went.
Also year is a link to an axle codes page it will tell you from your data plate on the firewall what your diff ratio is and if it is LSD or not

I had the same problem the Wagon and the W50 1st is virtually un usable and it revs its tits off at 100kph in 5th. This is with a 3.9 ratio
