Yep, $12.99. Put that next to my $50 Z32 calipers and my $32.99 vLSD.

I just stumble across this stuff in the junkyard. It's a U-pull it place where every component carries the same price regardless of the make and model it comes off of. So you pay $12.99 for a MAF from a 1986 pulsar or a Z32/J30. All their stuff works that way. You just need to be there on a good day when they get stuff in. The J30 was completely unmolested and still had the entire engine albeit a broken t-belt. Owner probably found out the cost of a new motor + labor cost more than the car was worth. Anything else worth grabbing off it?

grab the axles and output shafts chris. someone might need those for the lsd swap (if they don't have the correct axles already). also might try finding the ignitor and afew inches of wiring on either side of it (I think SR guys can use J30 ignitors if they wire them up right)...

Funny you say that about the axles cause I need one, hehehehe. If its a 93 or early 94 model you can use the axles on the JDM 5 bolt S13 VLSD. I only have one axle and havent bothered to source the other.

you can also grind 1/4inch off the long open-diff shaft, which is what I, and a few others I know, have done. Doesn't cut into the splines, only the chamfer on the end
