Looking at purchasing a S14 diff, complete with housing.

I need to know if it will bolt into my S13 rear cradle.
(R200 non-lsd)

I read the centres can be swapped over but the S14 housing won't bolt into the S13 cradle because of offset bolts. Can anyone confirm?

Thanks guys

Actually if you take a closer look, the S13 rear subframe has 6 boltholes so that both R180's and R200's can be bolted straight in. (Your open diff should be an R180). The only other issue you might have is if you got the 5-bolt axles (as the 14 diff has 6-bolt output flanges as far as I know).

If you do have an R180, you wont be able to put the S14 R200 centre in it...

i think you can use the S14 drive shafts to fix that problem

Wouldn't be a problem, I have 6 bolt drive shafts.

I'm pretty certain i have a R200 non-lsd, not R180.
(SR20 N/A)

If you have 6 bolt shafts then the S14 diff will bolt in, the only issue I have ever come across is that the S13 R200 front bolts are too short to use with the late model S14 diff (r200c). You simply need the front bolts from the nose of the S14 diff.

They are available from nissan if you need them or any bolt merchant should have something suitable.

Thanks guys very helpful

SL11DE your S14 diff has 5 bolt flanges? Is that correct.
I thought all S14 diffs have 6 bolts.
