just picked up this diff today and wanted to make sure it was the correct one that bolts up to a base s14. i think its the right one, it came out of a 1995 j30. This should be the right one i hope.

That is a J30 rear diff, but it's a 93-94.

Also, I think you'll need to swap the rear cover. If the S14 is the same as the S13, there should be FOUR studs on the upper portion of the rear cover to attach to the subframe, not just two.

If you have 5-lug axles, you're set. If not, get the axles from a J30 as well.

s14 has two studs on rear cover, also in 95 there are some models with 5 bolts on the axle(early model), and some with 6(later model).

looks much better. do you have abs? if not, let me know how the fitment is.

thats a tempting offer, how much do you think shipping would be to buffalo, ny?

Na i dont have abs on my s14. i used this site for ref http://www.ka24development.com/vlsd.html i can give you the number of the junkyard bc im betting that they can get a better price with shipping. im not sure if they have more 3*2's but i know they have some j30 diffs. if anything u can get the axles too i guess. i got my diff for 192.06 including tax.
