Gen1 diff rarely fail, even among track folks. It is a torsen unit, which is robust and mostly worry free. People who upgrade the diff are mostly for changing into clutch type LSD for tunability and better locking behaviors (this type of differentials are actually need more attention and are less robust than the torsen) . IIRC the torsen on gen1 (and probably gen2) has a fixed 1:4 bias ratio and it cannot be changed. If one rear wheel lost contact with the ground (which is common with larger swaybar or higher spring rate coilovers), the torsen LSD effectively becomes an open diff.
