Did any of the ae101 1991 Silvertop levins come with an lsd box?

How important is it to have an lsd gearbox with a fwd turbo 20v. Ive got a 1994 liftback corolla with a 4afe in it. I have a silvertop gearbox but will the axles and that gearbox be strong enough?

probly not. save yourself money in the long run and buy a gtz gearbox and shafts.
then if you're making any decent power invest in an aftermarket mechanical lsd , the factory viscous ones arent too bad , but most are tired and people ask stupid money for them. a decent lsd in a must if you want to be able to go anywhere, rather than spin a wheel everytime u touch boost. .

I have no idea how much just an lsd box is worth, is that quite expensive?

i think they were Always a factory option on the 4age powered cars

i have herd of a few around that defentally have lsd's

then there are the c56 gear boxes like mine with an lsd, i couldent tell you if it was factory fitted or not

You can get the heavy duty axles on non-LSD boxs, its a bit of mix and match, and if you want to know if its factory LSD look at the trans/axle code C5* -**B is LSD A is open

c= lsd. not b.

c56 + s/s = lsd

have never seen an ae101 non s/c with lsd. or find any evidence of lsd on the epc.

Is that meant to mean superstrut, or a mistake meant to mean supercharged?

no, thats superstrut.
or, put another way which may be more accurate, ae111 with s/s = lsd.
ae101 gtz = lsd.

hmm revhead can you show images of this? as iv never seen a viscous in a 4age box only a starlet gt c series which has a changed case to fit the diff, most if not all ae111 lsd's are torsen... (BZ-R ones anyway)

I know someone with a bz-g S/S, looking to sell his car I think, I should swap the gearboxes (OH THEY ARE THE SAME MATE!)
