Exclamation PLEASE HELP A NEWBIE!! Turbo 2 rear differential questions

I'm looking at using the rx7 turbo 2 rear differential for a swap, and I was told to use either the s4 or s5. I am ordering the OS GIKEN superlock LSD, so I was just curious which housing is stronger? And what years did the rx7 turbo 2 s4 and s5 rear differentials come out of?

Ive searched everywhere and I can only find that one is a clutch style and one is a torsen style, which doesnt help me at all since im going OS GIKEN. Thank you!!!

S4 is 86-88 and S5 is 89-91.
I am pretty sure that You can use either Housing as they are the same.

*by the way..multi posting the SAME question in another section Does not help your post count as ANY duplicate threads will be DELETED..as they have been done already..so please if you post a question,do so ONCE in ONE section.
Thanks (STYX ..MOD)
