it is a 1990 canadian N/A s5 engine and 88/89 (i can't remember) car. the guy i got it from said it had an lsd as he has one in the 1990 N/A s5 he drives. he also said it was a 4.10 rear end. i was goine to see if i could give it to a jy in trade for everything I need for a f2t swap

So a GSL-SE diff will fit directly into the B2200 rear diff housing and still use the stock B2200 axels?
Thats damn awesome LOL

I don't know anything about 7s , I was thinkin they had an independant rear suspension set up, although I dont recall my indication to that thought.

Any body out there know what years to look for to get IRS/LSD out of an rx7 and not have to shorten the rear end or make other major mods to put it in a B2200 ?

Putting IRS in a B2200 would be ALOT of fab work!

The 79-85 RX-7's have a solid rear axle, just like the B2200.

The 86-96 RX-7's have IRS.


From what I read, the 84-85 GSL-SE RX-7 diff would bolt into the B2200 diff housing.

cool thanks for the info ,
It would be a lot of fabrication , but chassis and suspension always is, I would not build strut towers though. I found a source of where I saw this done it was a Japanese dudes' green feature truck in minitruckin a few months back, the issue was mini truckin goes WORLWIDE!
