Can I put the Greddy larger capacity diff cover on my s13 diff? It seems to refer to being for an s14. What would be different and does anyone make a larger capacity diff cover for the s13? Are they even worth it?

Have you ever look at your diff? Guess not.

S13 = 4bolt rear cover
S14 = 2bolt rear cover

You would need to run an S14/S15 subframe in order to fit a 2bolt cover onto your diff.

Nope haven't even had a chance to look under there yet. Just wanted to make sure to get everything that was available for my build.

I'm assuming that the cooling isn't needed for drift/road race or else more people would offer different covers, right?

you can assemble a diff cooler for roughly the same price as buying a finned diff cover, and it would be way more practical as far as cooling goes. that kind of stuff is over kill for 99.9% of us, including those of use who do drift/autox/track day events.
