learning about diffs myself rexy i will need to replace mine in my ta22 soon (and want rear disc brakes also) so read this thread with interest. given the diff you have has been rebuilt with new componentry - i'd be inclined to use it - these diffs seems to have lasted quite well in the ae86's outta japan and well, i'd expect with the initial d fad, most would have seen hard lives (hence maybe why yours was rebuilt?) remembering that your non HSV clubby is around 600kg, and, you'll be pushing ~140 flywheel kw down there (but not tonnes of torque) and you'll be seeing the occasional track day i think the unit will last. make sure you use a really good quality oil. more of a common sense thing i think. failing that, you could always sell it (am sure you'd get big dollars for what it is) and consider a BW 78 housing (ala skyline/pintara/gm/ford/nissan) with a kaaz lsd to suit. i think that will be the way i end up going. or perhaps look at what the other clubmans use (hint - speak with T here) and maybe follow suit?
