91 rear end into 90

he guys for some reason there not letting post in the drivetrain area so i gotta ask this question asap. i crashed my 90 gsx last jan it left my pass rear tire facing down. now im ready to get her fixed a friend is letting me have his 91 auto tsi for the parts. im curious besides the work of pulling out the axles will it be a direct swap? id go 4bolt but times are hard, really hard.

Is yours a 5-spd? if so the gearing between 5spd and auto is different it wont work

Just use your differential and swap out whatever suspension parts are bent. Or use the whole rear subframe out of the 91 with your differential. I think it would take a pretty good shot to damage it.
