Welcome. Please don't start a thread like this:

Avoid stuff like that and you'll be awesome.

no homo... lol
please dont flame me since i am a noob of the miatas but do all of the 94s come with torsen or would it have to be a m,a,b,c,r edition?
ive also read that the torsen II is "better, stronger" than torsen I, is this correct?

If the 94 has an LSD, it is a Torsen. But not ALL 94s have LSDs.
The Type II is a fundamentally more robust design, but I have not heard of either unit breaking from track use. They seem to last forever. Off-road is another matter. The Torsen does not take kindly to rotational impact loads.
