1995 Nissan 240sx: How much does the differential cost? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Im might buy a 1995 240sx but the owner says it needs a new differential and there are grinding noises from the transmission gear. I just want to know if it will cost a lot to fix it and are the grinding noises a big issue? The guy told me that its still drivable though.

Not terribly expensive but labor intensive (for a newbie) to start out with.
Personally, I'd stay away from this car. Bad differential and transmission to me are indicators of a car that's been abused.

Yeah i agree with Mano. Save your money and look for something not molested would be you best thing to do.

You could get a vlsd for like 100-150 which is better than a stock differntial
