Hey guys, got this diff today. I bought it as a 2 way 4.36 ratio. Seller wasn't sure of brand.

 

Ive done a bit of googleing and it looks similar to a kaaz, ats or possibly a tomei. There are no markings anywhere.

 

The ramp angle seems to be shallower on one side. Is it a 2 way with a weaker angle on 1 side or is it a 1.5?

 

Take a look at the pics and shoot if you have any ideas or info to identify. Cheers lads.IMG20180129135435.jpgIMG20180129135601.jpgIMG20180129135702.jpgIMG20180129135622.jpgIMG20180129151423.jpgIMG20180129151359.jpgIMG20180129151408.jpgIMG20180129151423.jpg

Looks like a Kaaz [emoji4]
Looks like mine too, here's an article I wrote a while back

Yep, already saw your article and agree it looks very similar. Looking at the pics of the cam position ive posted, does it look 2 way or 1.5 to you.

I thought 2 way first up but the more i stare at it, starts looking like 1.5. Am i trippin or what? Lol.

Btw, it doesn't feel like a kaaz, its pretty smooth and hardly chatters at all. I filled it with penrite mineral 85-140 and 30ml of limslip. Thats why i started thinking, maybe an ats super silent.

 

It does lock both wheels equally, my car has never launched this good and stayed straight while baking the rears.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
