The 1.5 way diff isn't really a 1.5 way, but anyway.

You wont need a 2 way for a hill climb, in fact you would be better off without it.

As for track work a 1.5 is better anyway.

Remember the Nismo diffs have adjustable presets.

Check the nismo website www.nismo.co.jp

so a 1.5 way will be better for my situation, and 2 way are good for dragging?

No a 2 way is not for dragging. Which is not to say you can't succesfully use one.

You need to understand what the 1 way, 2 way means. Best off doing a search, but roughly they work as follows.

Basically they are mechanical limited slip differential where the engine torque helps clamp the friction plates in the diff. A one way only does so under acceleration. A two way acts under acceleration but also on the over run. Hence it is useless for drag racing. A one & a half way is supposedly in between but in reality the ramp angles on the over run on the Nismo diff are square so it is a bit of marketing bullshit.

Remember that the pre-load gives you an LSD function without any engine torque. The more aggressive of the Nismo LSDs are a nasty thing on the road. You cannot gently turn a corner with any engine torque without the diff locking/clunking. Look to the pro lsd tt version if you use the thing on the road.

got it so 2 way would give you to much understeer in tight corners and would like to push, and the tt version for the nismo isnt avaliable at nengun whats the differance between that and just pro

The two way will lock when you have torque transmitted via the engine on the over run, ie when the motor is slowing the car down. This commonly occurs on corner entry and yes it makes the back end reluctant to turn = push understeer.

the tt version for the nismo isnt avaliable at nengun whats the differance between that and just pro

Check the Nismo site as the TT version for the GT-R's is only a new addition. Rather than just believe the website send them (Or another of the importers...) an email to check. They should be readilly available in Australia.

The difference in the two versions is basically the ramp angle. TT Pro is more gentle and is better if you want to use it on the road. Don't use a 2 way on the street.

so with a 2 way you really need to heel toe on gearing down....

and a 1 / 1.5 way you dont....

cool i get it :D

might be going a nismo gt lsd pro 1.5 then as my stocker is spinning the right too much :P

Heal & toe. Sort of. It will stop the diff locking on clutch release, but probably not as the engine drops revs by itself.

Nismo do upgrade kits for the stock diffs as well as the stuff listed so far. There is another thread not dissimilar to this one which is worth looking through.

i thought these were the upgrade kits.... ?

car is for a daily... occasional drift, drag and circuit (track, so reasonably well abused)

would a nismo gt lsd tt pro 1.5 be the best bet?

i can get for around $1300 landed

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
