Using the OS Giken diff. You have to use the OS Giken lube to keep it quite. Otherwise, it gets noisy. After install, change the lube after 1000 miles. The lube used to be $70.00 a liter. Now I see it's $50.00 a liter. I have one, and it works great. Get the Z1 finned diff cover too. I recorded temps of 265F in my diff. The cover will hold an extra 1/2 liter of lube.
Thanks for the info and advice. Yes I already have the z1 diff cover on the build list. It is getting done July 9th. Unfortunately I am down until then as the planetary gears in the stock diff let go Thursday night. It is totally dead for now.
