what year is your 240 is what i was going to ask first until i noticed in your profile that its a 95...if im not mistaken the infiniti j30 vlsd bolts directly into the s14 but they have to be the 6bolt vlsd's which i believe are the 95 and 96...but the early 95's are 5bolt so you gotta watch out for that. also look on ebay for s14 vlsd's...and always use the search button first

There is a company that makes lots or aftermarket parts for tuners on Ebay. They look good but are junk. If something seems to be cheap on ebay and its new, then don't buy it. VLSD are hardly worth it. Transfer very little torque to the other wheel. Nismo are about $800. Keep saving.

no. I'd recognize the name if I saw it. I don't know about this company. The part looks used so I may just be an importer for JDM stuff. I can't say if its good or not. My gut guess is that is was taken from a wrecked (or stolen) car. May or may not be good internaly but is probably rebuildable.

Its your call. If it were new, I'd say forget it.
