There are two standard Toyota TorSen diffs - the A01B and the A02B. Both have 8" casing size.

 

The A01B is a 4.083:1 ratio and was commonly found in (but not limited to) the pre-facelift SZ-R non turbo model.

 

The A02B is a 3.769:1 which was most commonly found in the TT Auto.

 

The prop flanges are different on the 2 of these as well. The A02B flange is larger.

 

They have different monetary values too. The A02B seems to go for slightly less I have found. Have a search on here using the diff codes above once you determine which model it is and you could come up with a price from there :)

My SZ-R's got a A02B...

 

It may only have been the pre-facelift that was the A01B in that case :)

 

Being a facelift SZ-R, I'm presuming - if manual - yours is 6 speed rather than on the W58? Though in '96 with all of the weird crossover things happening to the Supra spec, that isn't a certainty either :D

It's a V161 in mine. Mine's a 96/97 SZ-R. Black roof lining/carpet etc with the A02B diff. Not sure what other goodies it's got from the factory

 

Phew - glad I worked out the gearbox bit and I'm still somewhat correct with my 'what diff goes where' info :D

 

Edited my previous post to reflect that. :)
