OS Giken Clutch and LSD-Will the normal R56 S fit?

Hello
I am looking to install the OS GIKEN clutch, flywheel and LSD.

Contacted OS Giken Japan and they said that they never test fitted a clutch or LSD on the Mini GP.
Will it fit if it was the clutch for the R56 Cooper S?

ALso, I asked him about the need to shorten the flywheel bolt and he said that there is no need with the new batch. So when you buy a new one there is no need to shorten the bolts as before.


The question is
WIll the LSD fit?

BEst Regards
Shihab

I'll stick with the dual mass clutch and flywheel but I'd sell my dog for a LSD in my GP2.
