just thinking out loud

Has anyone seriously looked into swapping a 2.0 lsj transmission onto the 2.4. And if so why wouldn't it work.

So get a LSD for the F23. They're available. I'm trying to think of a reason why someone would do that and it's not coming to me.

Just wondering if IT could happen. There are some variations in the wiring. Just wondering if anyone's looked harder or attempted. I'm just gonna see about the LSD and kryo the gears.

That's the difference the harness is different so you'll need to tune the car to accept the new transmission. I don't know if its worth it IMO. Your probably better off getting LSD for the stock transmission.
