Yeah searched came up with a coupla guys putting 300zx vlsd and one jdm not the info i needed tho. I guess tho if you can put 240sx vlsd output flange on a 300zx diff they will fit into the JDMs13 VLSD diff correct ? now i wonder whats cheaper new flanges or j30 axles ? :)

why call when u can laugh at them in person, thats what i did when they told me the output flanges for an S14 would cost $300 apiece.

I bought a S13 just diff only. They told me output flanges were 460 something total. I told them thank for the quote. So i bought a full 96 J30 VLSD for 350 shipped. All I had to do was change the rear covers and my dad ordered some longer bolts that connect it to the front part of the rear subframe. I had to have them machined down and ends tapered. I did use the J30 punkin and six bolt flanges to match up with my stock six bolt axels. Nick
