Its a 91 hatch its going in.Didn't know about the whole Driveshaft thing also.
I think the J30 is a 94.Its either 94 or 93.

Thanks
It will work. The J30 diff is about an inch or so longer than the S13/S14 diff because of the ABS thing (sensor?) on the front of the diff.

I just wedged it together and it worked fine. It has not given me any issues other than being more difficult to bolt the driveshaft to the diff.

You will have to swap the cover, it's a 2bolt, and you'll need the front snout bushings and hardware to mount it. Shame too, the earlier J30s had the nice finned rear cover.
So it's confirmed you need to swap the cover for an S13? My S14 had no issues and bolted right in.
