Also, I'm not sure what noise you heard, but I'd be worried about ring and pinion wear. You should get a matching driveshaft or match your current diff.

What would I be swapping in from the S13 LSD differential exactly? Only the whole differential case assembly minus the ring? And use the S14 ring instead?

After taking the differential internals apart I learned that the actual LSD has some play in it and I noticed its more than the S13 LSD's play. Thats what causing all the issues. As far as the ring and pinion wear go I agree, Im sure the extra bit of play isnt helping the differential as far as longevity goes.
