Nope.  Different size components altogether.

My '84 Cressida had LSD, so it should not be hard to find.


You COULD swap in all the LSD parts into an existing rear end, but with the availability of LSD 
differentials in good condition, it's FAR easier just to swap the whole thing.  You might even 
want to consider a gear ratio change.  Mk3 differntials are available with limited slip in AT 
LEAST 4.300:1, 3.909:1 and 3.727:1.  JZA70 Torsen differntials can also be had at 4.100:1 (IIRC)
