yea i'm talking to someone that ordered one. i'll see how his install goes. I wouldnt be surprised if there are more sensors and crap. it is from a newer car. but he said it should fit right in the S14 R200 pumpkin, so that means there wont be any sensors to worry about? and the r200 that isnt vlsd is it? he just said you have to get s15 shafts

EDIT: crap scratch that. just did a quick search and turns out the r200 is vlsd. cost of installing an s15 lsd in my car would probably equal the cost of a good aftermarket lsd.

your traction would be better. more traction means more powers being put down, so you'll be quicker. if you dont have problems with traction vlsd wont do anything.

there was only around 5000 S14's made from 95' - 98'. I don't know about the S13, but probably closer to 50,000. lol :D

Unless you put a kit and some rims and a few other things, I don't think the s14's look very sporty at all with their trunks and ugly rear end. I'm a die hard S13, they LOOK like a sports car, thats for damn sure.

S15 HLSD swaps right into an S14 pumpkin as long as you have the output shafts. It's a pretty easy swap.
