If you are just swapping the core then yes the LSD from the G37 is the same LSD that is in the 370Z Sport/Nismo. However to install the stock LSD differential into a base pumpkin you need to get longer stub shafts. If you go with an aftermarket LSD that is designed for the shorter base shafts then you don't have this problem.
actually the lsd itself is different.
the ring gear from the AT is thinner than the MT and the AT and MT LSD's have different size plates where it mounts up because of that.
they also have different part numbers. not saying you cant get it to work, but they are different.
