Any one know if the internals from a sport KA box (hoping karlos G can fill me in) will go in this case along with an s2 LSD...... Changing the ratios...

Rob,
yes sport ka ratio's fit but they are far too short for a turbo'd engine, i'v tried them before on an old zvh ka that i stripped, normal 1.3 ka ratio's on an rst lump were ideal i thought, on just a 200bhp 1.8 zvh with an omex limiter set at 6200rpm mine did 62mph in 2nd, 90mph in 3rd, 125mph in 4th, and never got to the end of 5th, all of those were on gps, and it kept the 0-60 times down as it saved an extra gear change which is needed if you use sport ka ratio's.
And yes an rst lsd diff bolt's in and just uses one of the ib5 diff bearings as its slightly bigger than the bc bearing.
