Hey Guys

Have looked around and have found RMS Motor Parts to be the best priced for purchase and install so far.

Can anybody recommend or even comment on these guys.

I got quoted $1290 for the diff and about $250 - $350 to install.

Sweet guys thanks for the feedback

Where are you getting it fitted?

I think I saw you drive past the other week.

I work on the same street are RMS Motor Parts.

Henry is a top bloke.

there's a place about 50 meters from RMS which is where I got mine fitted.

they did a good job.

How's the diff???

Can anyone comment on how good the Kaaz 1.5 way is???

CHeers

Hey JaseR33

I'm getting mine installed on monday so can let you know then.

What oil is everybody using after the running in process on the Kaaz oil????

im running kaaz oil in my 2way. its farkn harsh for the street, and i imagine 1.5 would only be a little better.......... but i ve heard ppl say using the right oil and it drives like a normal diff. pffft.

the old 3 point turn in a narrow street will suck, and so will driving up a 10 story carpark

Well i've had my diff if for a day or so now, it is ssssoooo chattery >_< , when turning feels like I’m actually losing speed, you can feel it through the whole car. I hope it's not like this forever. I have to go up a 6 story car park i could her the diff echoing off the cars.

Sorry to sound like an absolute no-brainer but could someone give me a paragraph or two on how a diff works and what makes it good? I've been told to invest in one but have no idea about them so I need to do some research first.

Thanks guys!

hahaha yea thats what im talking about.... there are the good points, then there are the bad points. for everyday use its just unneccessary. some ppl get used to it, but i aint no drift bunny so im not really gonna use it to its full potential, so i actually just put mine up for sale!

Yeah I’m willing to give it a little more time I spent to much money to not give it a go. Anyway I can’t stand single any longer. You also had a 2 way which in my opinion is not really practical for every day.

Give it 1000 klms, then change the oil for the best Castrol Diff oil.

the sound will decrease markedly.

then give it another 1000 klms, change oil again, less sound.

Mine is GREAT now.

I've changed oil twice.

I'm assuming both the kaaz and tomei should be pretty similiar in nature then?

Being chattery, unfriendly to drive daily?

HRthirtyone and the97skyline, can you guys elaborate on some annoying daily situations?

I drive my R32 with twin plate carbon ATS clutch. I find it actually very streetable. With a 2 way, do you guys find it fustrating driving in parking lots, or driving up hill in intersections turning while in the rain?? :yucky:

Thanks guys!

This info really helps me out choosing a correct lsd for my application

I’d say yeah they are very similar. I only have a 1.5 way but am still in the running in process. But at this stage I have only done like 200 K with it in. So its still very chattery, its realy loud when going up the 6 story carpark and the chattering can be felt through the car.

This is the worst it’s been as it’s a very tight car park and always having to be on the throttle. But cruising around its not that bad as bass said now his diff is very smooth and by the sound of it his done over 2000k in it.

Once the running in process is done and its done a few thousand k’s I think mine will be sweet.

Look the chattering is not present but it’s a part of buy an brand new Kaaz LSD anyway. I’ve excepted it now and can’t wait to really enjoy it on track, drift, skit pan days. >_< Hahahahaha Hope this helps

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
