I think you mean VE30DE, not VG30DE. The VG30DE comes in the 90+ 300z's. As for the non LSD to LSD. The tranny will bolt up. You have to swap out axles and hubs along w/ it. Other than that, I think that is all. Good luck

if you're going to swap just the tranny, you'll need the axles and hubs (as stated above). but you'll need to check out the transmission code on the firewall of the 93 to find out if it in fact does have lsd. not all 92-94 se came with lsd so there's no guarantee.
ig you're going to swap the engine as well, you'll need the main wiring harness (not 100% though), ecu, guage cluster and essentially any part from the engine bay that is different or un-compatible with the vg30e engine bay setup.

only benefits are posi burnouts and it will get you off the line better. Is this an automatic or manual? I'm pretty sure all 92-94SE 5speeds were LSD. Look for the V at the end of the tranny code on the firewall. If it says RS5F5OV (5speed) it is an LSD. Auto LSD would be RE4F04V. Good luck
