You'd need a limited slip differential (LSD).

It's not just a Supra thing.

Do a search of the MKII section and you'll find the details of what to look for and what other vehicles have compatible differentials. Try searching terms such as "diff", "differential" and "limited slip".

Here are a couple threads with relevant info:

You may find more specific information at www.celicasupra.com... it's a higher traffic MKI and MKII Supra site.

You don't want a locked diff unless you're only planning on driving in straight lines. When the car turns the outside wheels spin at a different rate than the inside wheels. Lock the diff and one will be skipping as it's not moving at the same rate as the other and you'll loose traction... in a turn... it's a crap move on anything but a "track only" car.

Go the distance and find a compatible LSD like all those folks before you.

You'd just have the internals welded to lock it. I don't know of any type of kits to do the job.

And you're posting in a public forum... expect opinions.
