So I was at the junkyard and saw a 240sx with the diffferential still on it. I know that the vlsd has an orange sticker, but where is the sticker located? Is it very noticeable? The car was an se so there is a good chance it might have a vlsd.

what year was it?

if it was an s13, to have an lsd it would have to have hicas, look for that.

if it was an s14, and it's an SE.. look for ABS. if it has ABS then it has an lsd.

the sticker is under the diff near the fins. it is very noticeable.

1 way to check if it is, spin 1 side of the diff, if it turns the same way as you've spun it, it's an lsd, if it spins opposite, it's an open centre.
