Nismo 2 Way Lsd Vs Kaaz Vs Shimmed Lsd

[Piggaz]

Where'd you guys pick up the OS Oil from? I'm changing diff ratio and keen to give it a try

Changing diff ratio? You going shorter?

I got mine from RHD but a quick google search will give you a heap of places to source it from.

Nah I had 4:3 which was good on a stockish 25 but now with the 3 litre it's way to short so going a 3:9 and see how that goes

Ah goodo. I was going to say, surly you didn't need a shorter ratio with the 3.0. Good move!

I was even tempted to go 3:6

so nismo oil is no good ? or anyone tried royal-purple / redline by chance ?

[Piggaz]

I'm sure the NISMO oil is fine. It's just not as calm compared to the OSG oil in it.

[donut_kng]

I've used royal purple which worked well in a tight shimmed diff back in the days of the struggle.

I have some sort of mineral oil that was recommended by a diff specialist which seems ok but will be keen to try the OS

[cobrAA]

got it, i shall order some os giken then !

Does anyone know the best place to purchase a nismo 1.5 way? And what other diff options are there besides kaaz and nismo?

I've heard the nismo is more a bit more quiet so im leaning towards that but on the other hand I've heard kaaz is more servicable and has local rebuild support.

How long do the clutch packs last?

This will be going on my r33 gtst which gets driven 4 or 5 times a week and will hopefully see the drag strip and a few skidpan days soon, and hopefully the track in the future.

Best place to buy from is Jesse streeter. Some other brands are Cusco and OS giken.

Diffs will last if you don't constantly abuse them with track use. Mine has been too probably about 20 track days and still locks up hard then power is down.

Also whatever you do, do not pour Redline Shock Proof oil into a clutch pack mechanical LSD. I saw one for sale not long ago where it was filled with the smurf's blood.
