Just want to know the Common/Average price range for a VL LSD diff, ive seen a lot up for 1k-2k. I dont really know if thats overpriced or worth it?

$600 plus. Depends on condition, brakes included, what sort of discs, etc. Rebuilt will be worth more.

plus its says "TO FIT A TRI MATIC GEAR BOX" i have 5 speed manual, is there something i need to change because i dont think so?

If it's for a trimatic it'll probably have a different pinion flange and tailshaft. Tailshaft you don't have to use, but the pinion flange would need to be changed I imagine (not sure about trimatics).

Btw, that thing looks like arse for being rebuilt 6000Km ago.

If you just want an LSD to do mad skids mate you can get one to suit your 25 spline n/a diff like i did.
I got it out off an XE falcon for $80. But dont get carried away, it might need reco'ing and youll get slugged labour to fit it....
There are two types. One are a 2.77 diff ratio (dime a dozen, very common)
There ratio diffs center have a smaller crown wheels DO NOT accodomate larger 3.45 diff gears (vl ones)
You NEED one that is 2.92 or higher as these have a larger crown wheels to suit the larger VL diff gears.
25 spline Itll be fine for an n.a up to a fairly stock turbo setup... anything decent power youll want to upgrade
Or you could just spool it, which i wouldnt recomend with 18s and wider tyres as its too much grip and youll snap axles... so forget that.

I built My Diff out of Ford 2.77 bits, a busted VR Clubby centre and Pintara diff gears . I used the ford side gears and cones with the 4 pinion clubby carrier. Still running the 25 spline axles with a hiflow, high comp conversion with 4:11 diff gears and 18's on the rear. Have had this diff together for 12 months with no dramas, however I have 28 spline axles and a spare LSD centre ready to go.
The total cost of the whole diff including new bearings was $200
