Depends on how you want to drive it! If you want to beat up on it, go for a larger diff - F series would be a good starting point, if you simply want a daily driver with a bit more pep, the T series AE86 axle should be fine. Standard I think you'll find your CRessida will have an E series diff, so the T series diff will actually be reducing the size of the diff too - something to think about.

MS112 Crown will be your easiest option.

Why not use a G from an old-school Hilux and be done with it? You'll be able to slot in a passable LSD, some sensible gears and it should be strong enough. Plus it'll be the right width.

If size and weight are not an issue, thats an option too, but you'll also need to do a disc brake conversion if you want discs!

In malaysia there were some MS112 crowns..hmm..suppose it be like looking for a needle in a haystack..the track width would be same almost i think...Mr.Shin would you know the chassis code for the Hilux you're reffering too ? Malaysia is Hilux-heaven.. 
Thanks
