You need to swap the diff cover because the S14 cover only has 2 bolts. The S13 cover has 4. Yes, you can use the cover from your stock diff. Just be sure to seal it with RTV.

What about the output shafts? also does anyone know the codes on the s14 diff that says it's an lsd?

Also, the front cover of the differential where the two long bolts go in are different. The s14 has a bigger hole where it acommodates a bushing. The bolt is also longer. I would imagine that you would porbably need those to fit it in an s13. If it is a vlsd, it will have a bright orange sticker that will say so. If you're still not sure. Jack up the rear end and make sure the e-brake is off. spin one wheel and the other one should spin the opposite direction at equal speed. This is if you have a vlsd.

no..if you have a helicle or a open diff this will happen...

lsd and VLSD the wheels will spin in the same direction.
