I had the VLSD with my 240sx and there's a huge difference between that and the Kaaz.
The kaaz is the cheapest option for the aftermarket diff's (I think). You can also get them over here state side so that's not an issue.

So would you recommend going with this setup : R200A rear into S2000 Honda Brackets, One pair of 1000HP C.V.'s and one Aluminium Driveshaft including adapters to run universal joints
and picking up a Kaaz LSD for R33 GTS-T Skyline 2.5L Turbo 5 Speed Manual?

Isn't it just the back cover that is different?
Therefore the front and rear mounting points are different.
The crownwheels and pinions are the same, with a few exception, for all R200 LSD.

Fred, these are what the 2 diffs look like from the front
240sx or 180sx diff
R33GTSt diff
The only difffence between the rear is the number of mounting points. The R33GTSt diff has 2 mounting points and the 240sx/180sx has 4 mounting points.
Cheers

It should have no affect on the cars handling unless you put in a clutch type LSD. Then the handling will be improved. Of course this also applies to the stock differential.

Does this kit effect the handling of the car at all?
I have a 1.5 way lsd with my nissan diff. The handling is practically the same. If anything the 1.5 way will help pull the car back if you back off the throttle with an oversteer.

R33GTSt diff
You can see the extra sensor with the cable
I wouldn't want to order a ready made flunge from Aus and find out it won't fit my diff. I also have the drive shafts and prop shaft matching this diff .

I just saw some other pics of Elaug diff, it does have the extra length like mine
http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/wetoddim...zMXk1NDE%3D.jpg
My diff should come standard with 4.3 (auto), is there an accurate way without opening the diff to determine if its a 4.1 or 4.3 ?
