I have the same tranny and I got a quaife. Seems to be working great so far. Haven't tried ctr or itr or kaaz so I dunno about them.

ITR/CTR LSDs can fit but the inside of the case must be ground out a bit. Also, you need to use the ring gear that comes with said LSD.

the hole is a little smaller than the LSD...you might need to grind the casing a little to make it fit

It's very easy to do, you just have to grid two small spots in the case for the diff to fit in.

what he said.
I dropped an ITR LSD into my B17 YS1 tranny by using a Hydro GSR ring gear, thats the same as U.S. ITR ring gear... its a 4.4:1 gear.

you only need to grind 1/8" off of a few of the wings/webs/casting protrusions in the area of the differential, its easy... like 5 minutes with a Dremel, you could even do it with a small hand file, the aluminum is easy to remove.

the BIG Spline YS1 cable trannies will accept the entire gearset (or portions of it) from ITRs and GSR's.
This also includes synchros... cool huh!

Its a fact, all 92-93 gsr YS1 tranny's are the big spline style.

BERT-O on this board, he's at Gettel Acura in Florida.

I used '99-'00 Si synchros to repair my B17 YS1 tranny, worked like a charm.
