I was wondering what the length of the 300zx Diff. I want to do the swap. I found a diff for $100 and the J30 output shafts for $200 but I have a one piece aluminum drive shaft and b4 i buy these parts I want to find out if I will have any problems with fitment. I need the facts please. Thanx

If the diff has an abs sensor it is .75 inches longer, which means you can either risk pushing that length of the spline into the trani and destroy the seals or you can get it shortened...if you have a 1 piece driveshaft just bring it to a good local driveshaft shop, they will put it on a laithe, cut the weld, cut .75 inches out, and re-weld and ballance it. i paid 160 to shorten my stock driveshaft and that was with new bigger u joints with grease fittings....TRUST ME..get it shortened if you have the abs sensor, its not that bad
