Can someone with a Quaife front diff give me an idea of what the difference in driving between the factory open diff compared to this? And what are you using for a rear diff? What's a good match?

I'm running a Nismo 2way in the back at the moment, I'm not bothered with drag racing, only use the car for road and basic track work.

It's like two massive bear claws ripping you out of the corner. It really is night and day! It shows you how tame/soft/crap the standard open diff is.

I spoke to Terry at award diff and gearbox and he said the nismo gt pro for the rear over anything else.

i use the quaife in my rb26, absolutely love it. I have a carbonetic front lsd in my evo, and i LOVE the carbonetic clutches and rear diffs... but for a front diff, i really like this quaife

Would that include the new quaife rear?

Trying to find some feedback on it, but coming up with nothing so far...

Even the quaife rear. It's a tough one. The Nismo is a known unit and we know the quaife is awesome in the front but is it better than the Nismo in the rear? Someone has to bite the bullet :/

Bullet bitten, but will be a little while before I get it sorted.

I can't remember, do you have a Quaife in the front also?

Yes... If I win Lotto I would get one of their new sequentials in the middle! Lol, at around the $10-11k mark much better value than anything else.

Cheers guys, What are going for in Aussie? Just weighing up if its cheaper to buy there or in NZ. The Quaife supplier for NZ is in my city.....But if it's cheaper elsewhere..... :whistling:

when i got mine our dealer is in NZ, that is where I got mine from, from Palmside

I think Paul got his from the UK, maybe

Yeah, I think it's prob just as easy for me to get it from Palmside, They are only down the road from me.

I also see they have bought out a replacement to their Seq box for the Skyline GT-R's, And it has a Helical Centre diff built in? interesting......

I ended up with the Nismo GT Pro for a good price :)

Couldn't get the nismo tweaked motul oil without buying excessive amounts, whats a recommended alternative diff oil?

Regular Motul diff oil do the job well?

I've been advised to use the OS GIKEN oil, 80W -250. I'm currently using that in the front too.

What do you mean excessive amounts? - You can get 1 litre bottles:

here is the Motul version:

I used the Castrol to good effect.

Add some Penrite friction modifier if you get too much chatter

      Nissan fuga 450gt android screen

      By Duncan · Posted

      That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
