Are you certain it's broken? What's it doing now? While in gear and under acceleration you don't move anywhere? Do you see the driftshaft spinning? Any grinding noise? Make sure you didn't just bust an output shaft or axle. If it's just an output shaft / axle it's a matter of popping it out and putting another one in. Otherwise, if the gears of the pinion or ring gear is damaged then it's better to source a whole new unit (LSD with output shafts). A 6 bolt is an r200 differential from an s14. Are you asking for an s14 with an OEM LSD option? You can find those readily available at most JDM engine importers. They also have them on ebay. Search "s14 lsd". Good luck.
