If the kyosho spring is softer then Tamiya's one is the way to go. Cheers for that.

The locking nut and screw, well the way to go is to look for these kyosho part numbers.

WBD-5 (Item 1 is the lock nut, 2 is the spring) and WBD-6 (item 17 and 18 are the thrust race and plates, item 19 is the screw and 20 and 21 are the covers to protect the screw, hopefully a hex allen key screw head). These come with a complete Lazer diff, so would be advisable to investigate and see if they sell these parts without the diff cups and diff gears. Hope this helps.

The worst thing is locking nut, it is not locking enough.
I'm using 2 locking nuts and threadlock glue between them, it helped.
