OS Giken, ATS, KAZZ, TRD, etc ... all make G-series LSD's that will fit into your housing
BUT there is a catch, while they *fit*, you need to do two things
1) Make a spacer plate that's 3mm thick, to space the crown wheel from the centre .. not hard, just a big ring with some holes drilled in it
2) Buy different bearings to suit (any diff shop should be able to work this out, if not, they shouldn't be touching your diff)
If you want a less agressive, straight-bolt-in option, there are some TrueTrac LSD's etc available from the states, aren't too expensive either, just not quite the same as your clutch-based alternatives

by what ive been told there are no direct fit 2 way lsd's to fit the g series center, however , you can get a center out of another model and make it fit the way 70XIN said.
The only straight fit centers ive found are lockers and a atb diff from quaife

You have to be a bit carefull using the term "2-way" to describe a LSD. It is only ment to be a general description of how a LSD maybe designed to lock up both under acceleration and deceleration. So technicaly, the factory Toyota HiLux LSD is a "2way" as it does this, although it is of a slightly different design to a TRD clutch pack diff or something like that.
