well done bud, looks awesome !!

The flanges on the pictures on these diffs , the vlsd has the evenly spaced 6 holes to bolt the axle to the flange , where as the original v35 diff has 6 holes but 3 paired ... So I was looking at the possibility of swapping the "stub axles" the part that slides into the diff to allow the shafts the mate with the diff .. Now seeing the pictures that youbhave posted looks like the stub axle is longer obviously . So changing the full axle may be the trick

Ok I reread your post , all good much easier to just swap the flanges from the original diff to the vlsd . I don't know why there isn't more information on the net about it , it' just seems like such an easy swap to something factory and a lower price than an after market product

Thinking about doing the same to mine , it would be stupid not to go a higher ratio diff , so when you say stub axle , your meaning the ends of the shaft ?

The output flanges could easily swapped . The case and mounts are identical
