@Rusty
Are you sure you can’t weld it? I welded my 240 vlsd and it was a b word but the 240s vlsd has like 4 windows on it that you can weld the spider gears together. I’ll try to do some research and see if I can see what they look like. Might be just as cost effective to go to a 2 way. Welded is just so awesome though.

There is no windows on it. And there is no spider gears. I have one sitting in my garage. I replaced my stock VLSD with a OS Giken 1.5, set at 70% lock.

Thank you for your information it is very helpful. Trying to figure out my best and somewhat cost effective option for full lock or close to it.

Pulled my diff to send to Z1 for the Tomei 2 way since doing a welded was almost as much money so i figured why not, even though welded would be just as good for my application. I pulled the cover off and what do you know.. this vlsd is just the same as all the others out there on r32,r33, s14s etc, it has 4 windows you can weld through to connect the gears to the housing thus making it a suitable welded diff. Even found someone who posted a photo of theirs welded and claims he is on his second season on it with no problems. I have had 2 welded vlsds on my 240s and one that had much more power than my 370 and never had an issue. saved me 2k today. Hope this helps the next person
