google tells me they are a helical type LSD.

ie all gears no clutch packs.
if the quality of them is good, then it seems like a good option
unfortunately TRD prices have recently been increased

when i had my true trac installed by diffs r us, the guys there said it looked like a very good unit and would give me no dramas for the power im looking at.

Anything to do with TRD becoming a manufacturer in Aus now? or is it due to something else? Hang on shouldn't they be coming down with the hight of the NZD at the moment.

But back to the topic, if its good quality & works for what you want then bye it, no point being a brand whore just to say its that brand if another brand can do exactly the same job and last the same length of time, for less $$$

The nzd is only gaining because the usd is losing value. Its dropped against the yen.

Hell the Canadian dollar is worth more than the USD now :lol:
