new to rx7's but not bad decisions

I have just picked up an 88 sport 2, it is in ok condition (no structural rust) but it is missing an engine. I have an s5 T2 engine, loom, box and all the stuff bolted to the engine (sadly not the car) that I got for my MGB project but it makes more sense to just put it in an rx7 now I have one.

I have a few questions if anyone knows:
What is a sports 2? from what I can tell it has T2 brakes and that's about it (I haven't had a proper chance to look as I got the car yesterday)
Dose anyone recognise this car as it has a club sticker
Do I need different half shafts if I'm swapping the na diff to a LSD
How bad are the s5 LSD's
