There's more than one reason to change out a diff. From what I've read, the Nissan diffs are a bit shorter, giving an overall lower gear ratio and a little quicker acceleration. Its probably cheaper for someone to get a used diff and shafts than a "custom" diff ratio.
As far as them being crap, I haven't read anywhere about exploding diffs, and supra's come stock with 320hp and a lot of them are over 400 WHP with no probs at all. S2000's diffs, yeah, I would stay away from them. I've heard they won't handle much more than 300HP. Some of the S2000 owners have been switching there diffs out for the one in the Mazda miata/rx7/rx8. Which again, that helical can be had for cheap.
