Refresh my memory on J30 LSD
What is the story on the 1995+ J30 LSD's Are they a direct bolt in for S13 & S14 chassis? Or is there some kind of modification required? I can't remember the info about the J30 95+ LSD

first up, ALL j30's had LSDs. they all have a 3.92 ratio.
u can find them on car-part.com
92-94 J30 axles you will need the J30 axles or output shafts from a 240sx with LSD (same R200v unit)
95-96 J30 will bolt in
lsd units will be 3/4 inch longer on the input snout that connects to the driveshaft. usually u can get by with mounting it because the worn mounts will have enough play. s13's will have to swap the diff covers in order to use the two bolt pattern to bolt it to the subframe.

Also the bolts that hold the diff up from underneath are too short, u need 2 about 1/2 inch longer
