  Might I suggest you stick with the Wagon rear diff? I know for a fact (I've done it) that a D series LSD will fit with some very minor mods, and you'd just need a little adapter to bolt the CRV driveshaft to the Wagon diff, or the Wagon driveshaft to the CRV transmission. Plus the Wagon diff housing is cast iron (extra strength where it counts) with a cast aluminum cover whereas the CRV diff housing is all aluminum. The Wagon diff is a bolt in (probably already there), but you'd have some futsing about to get the CRV diff in.
  
  EDIT Just realised that your chassis is a FWD (shifter hole). I'd still go with the Wagon diff. I did this with some welding for the front mount on the rear diff, and just bolted in the RT4WD rear subframe for the back mount of the rear diff.

  its a rt i cut the hole with an air saw, and i was reading that the gearing on the cvr and the rt diff is diffrent like the crv diff spins like .35% fast or something like that witch wouldnt matter ontill i engage the vicaios cupler im sure it wouldnt be very notice able but thats got to be hard on the diff and axles

  Turns out that the Wagovan transmission turns the driveshaft faster than I thought as well. The gearing that I did my calculations with was based on someone else's gear tooth count. I counted my own, and came up with 2.547:1, not 2.526:1 as I originally thought.

  so how would that add up in the rotation diffrence?
