swapping Aftermarket 3rd gen diff into 2nd gen

Hey guys Ive got a 3 rotor powered FD and Im thinking about putting an 8.8 irs rear end in, in place of my Kaaz 2 way. My question is what is involved, if it is possible at all, to swap the Kaaz unit into my 2nd Gen. Its N/A. Im willing to get anything I need to make it work. Its an expensive unit and I dont want it to go to waste.. lMK guys.. thanks!

Edited, misread your question....

in order to use your KAAZ in your FC you'll need a TurboII rearend, the FD LSD will drop right into that. (up until recently I was using an FD torsen in my TII)

you'll also need a special driveshaft to use a TII rear end with an NA trans (mazdatrix sells them), or just get a TII trans...

Also, you'll need S4 stub shafts for the rear end... S5 TII viscous stub shafts won't work on any aftermarket LSDs.
