Some questions about the R33 GTS LSD
Searched and didn't really find what I was looking for, and I need answers soon...
The parts car I bought has an R33 GTS LSD in it. I'm going to put it in my coupe. My question is, what parts do I need off the parts car to do the swap? Do I need just the guts of the pumpkin, or the whole pumpkin and half-shafts?
Another couple of things...
Is this LSD a 1, 1.5, or 2 way? Is it a clutch, helical, or viscous type?
I apologize for the noob questions, but I did search.
Thanks in advance, guys.

what kind of parts car is it?
you can use the whole pumpkin if your S14 for S13 you can change the rear cover
or you can remove the internals and put them in your pumpkin including the half shafts
gts is VLSD but crack it open you never know if it was changed.

Parts car is an 89 Fastback.
My DD that its going into is an 89 coupe.
If the parts car wasn't thrown together in such a ghetto way, then I'd just swap the whole rear end, but the damn thing was put together so half-assed that I have no clue if any of this stuff will even fit my car. I got under there to pull the pumpkin out last night, and the right side half-shaft was only being held on with three bolts! lol
