I just purchased my 94 mx3 about 1 year ago and now into the customizing part of it. I am planning on getting the gtr motor and need to get a good tranny to match up with it. people are saying that i am able to use 96-98 mazda protege, or a kia sephia the same year tranny because they are equipt with the lsd tranny. my questions it "IS IT TRUE", and does it just bolt up. i know that i have to use same axle that is on the new tranny and tranny mount. but does it really have lsd?? let me know i am very interested. thanks names chris

there is no transmission that comes with an LSD that will bolt to the BP, at least not that was sold in america.Escort GTR -- 11.87 @ 117.6 mph -- 320 HP / 325 Ft. Lbs. @ 23 PSI
... The first FWD BG with a Toyota E153 transmission conversion in the USA!

idk about the 96-98 pro, but the 1.8 95-97 sephia transmission has the strongest case casting you can get and the LSD from a mazdaspeed protege will drop right in. you'll also need the axles and intermediate shaft from said kia.
if you want to spend big bucks you could order a quaife from corksport, but it really is leaps and bounds better than the msp diffEscort GTR -- 11.87 @ 117.6 mph -- 320 HP / 325 Ft. Lbs. @ 23 PSI

Yep the only rwd LSD box is in the mazda infini. You could ask some guys from new zeland to find you one but they are really rare cars. I'd just do the kia box with msp lsd. Probably way cheaper in the long run1993 Protege LX-Midnight's shadow SOLD
1996 Honda CBR600-Wrecked. Damn Honda crippled me

indeed, the infini box requires infini specific axles that you obviously cant get anywhereEscort GTR -- 11.87 @ 117.6 mph -- 320 HP / 325 Ft. Lbs. @ 23 PSI

well the gt-r will bolt into your mx-3 using BP mounts, but wiring is a whole other story, might be better off going MsNs if you're 94+ (wiring gets weird). Yes the kia tranny bolts up to the gt-r.

dont forget some of the old Jspec BF Infini b6t GT turbo series had a FWD LSD box option and will bolt to a BP engine, but still just has hard to find them
and with a little bit of work
you can take a Jspec EC MX3/AZ-3/Eunos pressio LSD gearbox and put the gearset into a G5 box
or even a Jspec MX6 LSD gearset, taller gears though
more than one way to skin a LSD
my point is, infini's where not the only model to have LSD
