Well you don't have any choice about the size, it's a Hilux diff so you need a centre to suit a Hilux diff!
If it's a dedicated drag car you want a spool. If you plan to drive it on the street, I'd recommend a heavy-duty clutch-type LSD of some description. A factory Hilux LSD might be OK (depending how much power you have), or you could go for something aftermarket like a PowerBrute.

HiLux diffs are a G series, which is 8". HiLux 4wd's come with LSD, HiLux 2wd's don't. The newest HiLux's use a different diff code, but I expect they are still a 8" and the center may fit.
The standard HiLux LSD is a clutch pack type, which is pre-loaded with a coil spring in the center. This is the same as some Supra LSD's, which are also of the G series 8". (MA70)

It all depends what motor you run, and what you want to do. Alot of 4wd HiLuxs have a 4.3:1 ratio diff, which is perfect for a higher reving 4 cylinder motor. If are are into drags, there are calculators you can use to find the optimum diff ratio for your setup. 4.3:1 is often the factory ratio behind 18R-G, 2T-G and 4A-GE engines.
