thats very cheap for an lsd box. i have one out of my own car but i want close to 400 for it
from what i know its fairly easy to convert from 6 to 5 just drill an extra hole on the 6 speed engine mount for the 3 bolts to match up.

Depends how you treat it. Launching, clutch kicking and overly harsh clutches will break a 6speed.

Racing on circuits is sweet, just take off easy and don't just dump the clutch.

If you drive like an ape, the 6spd won't survive, but drive it with skill, it'll be fine...

A 6 speed with OEM clutch set will work fine. With an aftermarket clutch set, I will give it a 2-3 years life.

Stock clutch is fine for transfering stock/basic 20V with mods - when I do my motor I plan on running another stock clutch. Easier to replace a clutch than to replace the broken parts inside the 6speed

I haven't used my car with an oem clutch disc and my TRD flywheel, but I can say that the car is revving a lot quicker than before and the gear changing is quicker than before. Of course I have to make my engine mounts stronger because I have destroyed 2 in front till now :$
