Hello Everyone,I've just bought a 95 SE, and have several questions. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

1). Ebay has a JDM LSD from a s14. I was wondering if this would fit my car and what addional parts will be needed.

2).For all those SR guys out there, what kind of gas mileage does the SR's get? My KA is averaging about 21mpg.

Thanks All

BTW, I did read the article on the board about installing LSDs, but it does not mention wether there's any differences between JDM S14 LSDs and USDM S14 LSDs. I've emailed the guy and he said that I would need some kind or barings and one other part.As for my second question, my car has about 75k on it and just want to know for future references if a SR swap would improve gas mileage. I know the point of the swap should not be based on gas mileage alone. Its just that I've done searches on both subjects and have no luck.

Any help would be appreciates.

Is it the whole pumpkin or the lsd unit itself? The whole pumpkin bolts on unless its a S14 diff into a S13.

As for the gas mileage thing, turbo usually get better mpg on the highway since the motor isnt working on sucking air in, plus as long as your arent on boost it should get better mpg being a 2.0 Liter.
