hey everyone...new here with a probably a newb question...is there a gear difference in a auto rear end and a manual...or are they the same??? Also what would be the cheapest way to go LSD with it,(besides welding gears) since it doesnt have one. also it has the DOHC motor

chetacheese · 10-10-2008, 08:24 AM

same rear end.

cheapest way for lsd is the vlsd. but its not worth it, most prefer the big boys toys.
(kaaz, nismo, cusco....etc)

hope this helps some, contributing what i know.

JDM_WANNAB3 · 10-12-2008, 06:27 AM

will i need to change the drive shaft, or does that not come till i do the 5 speed swap??

Modrified · 10-12-2008, 06:34 AM

auto drive shaft and 5 speed are different. you can't use your auto drive shaft when swapping to 5 speed. if that is what you are asking.

JDM_WANNAB3 · 10-12-2008, 06:36 AM

no im talking about will the vlsd bolt up to the auto drive shaft until i convert over to 5spd/sr20det....i know Ill neeed a new drive shaft when i conv auto to manual

projectRDM · 10-12-2008, 10:44 AM

Kid, please just get your head out of your ass and search. The diff is the same, just swap the rear cover. You've already been told that. Why would you think to have to swap the driveshaft if you know the diff is the same? What do you think the word 'same' means?

S14 6 bolt VSLD will fit fine. (pumpkin = differential)

1. YOu will need to swap your s13 pumpkin cover onto the S14 VSLD pumpkin
2. you will also need the bolt and washer from the s14 pumpking. (the two bolt and washer that holds the pumpkin onto the chassi)

The s13 pumpking has small holes and uses bolt with no washers.
The s14 pumpking has a larger hole in the mounting tab and has washers and rubber bushing I remember.

Just use get the S14 VSLD pumpkin, and all the nuts and bolts and you should be okay.

6 axle bolts x both axles = 12 bolts set
4 driveshaft bolts= 4 bolts set
2 nuts / 2 mounting bolts = 2 nuts and 2 bolts.

Cost: $100-200 for a VSLD great for daily driving and aspirated driving. For the track and more performance, then LSD for sure.

ALSO: if you can find a Super Hicas s13 oem VLSD it's the same. R200

JDM_WANNAB3 · 10-15-2008, 08:47 AM

I can find the r200, for like 350 shipped.

JDM_WANNAB3 · 10-15-2008, 08:48 AM

thanks for the help squeeky
