you could sell the itr lsd and buy a b16. the b16 will drop in given you remeasure the shims. the difference is that the b16 unit is viscous and not gear driven like the itr one.

and as stated, you could swap out your countershaft and ring gear for one from an gsr or itr and you can use the itr lsd given u remeasure the shims.

no you couldn't. The LSD diffs use a larger ring gear.

Will work fine- you just need to replace the countershaft of the LS trans with the one from the ITR trans.
Replace diff and measure carrier bearing preload and adjust as necessary.
