Do a search there have been a couple of threads on this.
People (me included) started using heavier weight oil 90w120 I think from memory to make the diffs quieter.
I have since reverted back to the standard 75w90, as I found no reference to heavier weight oil when I searched the American supra forums about the weir kits, and felt it was the wrong thing to be doing. Heavier oil adds to the drivetrain power losses as well.
Mine quietened down after a while.

now I see you talking about supra diffs, does it work well for all of you?
I've one installed in my sierra also with weir performance kit
First diff had too much lock, it was making some noise on turns(clack clack) and the inner tyre felt like with a welded diff. After a few uses it started to loose lock until it had near no lock
then had a replacement diff, installed another new spring from weir performance, and tried to install the adjustin shims not soo tight (just for trying if this was the mistake), also changed the oil to another brand (castrol). First oil was also for LSD.
I don't know what happened but it gave me near no lock, sometimes only one black line on road, and I can lift the car from one side and turn the wheel with not too much force.
Clutches were ok when assembled it.
now I've ordered new clutch discs from Toyota and I'm going to install them again Rear clutch is from first LSD, probably bad shimmed as some of them are
