DO YOU MEAN THE HELICAL VS VISCOUS FOR LSD?

or do you mean open vs vlsd?

if its stock and not a s15 diff, it can only be open or vlsd. the tranny will prolly break before the diff, no?

thats what i'm trying to find out lol went on the nissan site said that the s14 zenki's come stock mostly with a 2 pinion diff and the viscous is for the se's or some thing like that here is the link 380 Rear Final Drive :: Power Train :: Genuine Nissan Parts :: 240SX Parts (S14) 1995-1998 :: CourtesyParts.com
the diagram looks the same to me but i wasn't sure which one is better to have
