not yet. thanks to being active duty military and about 10 hours from my car i never have time. the s2000 is in storage waiting to be finished and im rocking my 08 civic ex as my daily! soon as i have the time, i will finish it. i need my car back! sorry everyone this isnt getting anywhere! when its finished it will be well worth it though.
also dropping another engine in it so im closer to the 500hp for daily abuse.

Are you sure that diff is from a R33 as it look like it is a r230 from a 300zx tt? Trying to do my own conversion at the moment and looked at a lot of r33 diff's and can't find one like yours apart from a 300zx tt!

I have about 10k miles on my welded companion flange. (mine is on a ford 8.8 though) I put the flange on the brake lathe to make sure everything was perfectly straight. I dont remember the exact numbers, but the runout when I was done was better than on a stock s2000 diff. Since the s2000 driveshaft uses 2 cv's it doesnt really matter if its a "little" wobbly. lol
the only reservation I had about going this route was that every factory nissan VLSD I have ever used was garbage and a good replacement was over $1k. There were a few nissans that came with a different style lsd, but those are $$$ and hard to find. Thats why I went w/the ford diff.
