It's only '94-up miatas, and the miata diffs only work in '84-up rearends.

I've been searching the subject from previous questions posted and have found that the whole chunk should swap.
would like to know if the torsen lsd from the miata can handle hard launches from drag racing.
I don't take my car out that often, My brother called me out last weekend and I didn't even make it down the strip for the first run.
She broke on the first luanch rolling to a loud forty foot stop!!!!
I've already swap my chunk out to the single leg so he's got a better chance of me spinnin down the strip.
