diff swap ???

Ok I'm doing a diff swap on my GSL TO a GSL-SE diff. I know its been ask so many times. I know you need the brake lines. But what lines do I need from front to back or just the back? and I know you need the brake booster but I live on a crappy island and to be honest there like only 5 first gen rx7 that are running that I know of. so its hard to get parts for my car can I use a 2cd gen brake booster? and the brake booster is it the whole thing or is it the booster it self
thanks for your help. I need a quick fix. drift day coming up soon!!

Use the search engine to answer all your questions. Diff swaps are a common question asked here.

Not a problem. Also, be sure to check out this link to download the FSM for your car. I'm sure it'll help in later runs.

Since your GSL according to your profile is a 85.

If you are just swapping the center section, not axle to axle then you just replace the GSL one with the Se one. There is nothing needed.

There would be no need to swap in a complete rear end.
