If I put a 99 JDM auto with LSD in my 96 will the stock driveshafts still fit?

canadian autos (some) have LSD, just as the USDM I30t's. No point in importing crap from japan and paying higher prices with iffy reliability. Also, the cefiro in Japan does not have the same ECU, so I dont know if the TCU would be the same either.

Seriously guys, I have found an imported Japanese LSD trans locally. Will the trans work mechanically and electronically with my 96? Is there anything to modify? My car is down and I need some meaningfull answers. Thanks.

I honestly don't think your going to find anyone here who has done this before who could give you a meaningful answer. You'll be a pioneer.
