I've been through an old post from njccmd2002 in early 2011 about the conversion of the awd e154f to fwd. While removing the central differential, does it really worth installing a e153 lsd diff or it's lost money since the front wheel are already on an open diff in the e154f?

Why go through the effort? The E153 is easier to find, weighs less, and you don't have to worry about converting it. It's possible to convert the E154 to FWD but not something that has been done a lot so you'll get a bunch of mixed information. Some people claim it works, others say it won't work at all. For the work involved, I'd just skip the E154 and find an E153. Same gear ratios, much less work, no reliability issues.
