One on the left might be a TOCHIGI FUJI SUPER LSD?

The one on the left with a zip tie is 100% not a 94-2000 Torsen. Looks like it could be a later model limited slip. It has been so long since I have seen one that I forget what they look like. Mr Drago???? Or it could be something aftermarket. Slide an axle in and see if the splines are the same. It could also be a turbo diff, which uses special turbo axles.

The Diff on the Right (Mine) is from a 1.8 rear open Diff (4.30) from 1999 or later.
The one on the Left (Rey) is a Tochigi Fuji Super LSD Torque sensing cone clutch type from a 2003 or Later.
Nither is a Torsen although the TFS was a supposed upgrade to Mazda from the earlier Torsen T2.
We purchased both rear-ends under the assuption that they were both Torsens several months ago. We only came to find out this info now because we happen to take them apart for some internal work. We have contacted the seller and made them aware of the situation. He is a reputable seller so we dont see there being any issues.
Thanks for input guys and hope to be back on the track real soon!
