viscous Limited Slip VS. Another Type

Hi-Step'n370Z · 03-16-2010, 08:28 AM

What's the general thought on the Nissan viscous limited slip over the other types of limited slips available? Would the nissan viscous be your first choice, or would you choose a different one if you had the option?

Yes, that has been the general response. Thanks SkyZ.

OS Giken or Wavetrack. Stock viscous is not that great. Works for 95% of the people that buy a Z, but will give out quickly on track or even hard backroads driving.

My guess is this will probably be what goes out on me first. From what I understand, changing the Diff oil will not make it last longer either. Only thing I'm aware of that will help is the $1300 diff cooling kit. For that price, may as drive to failure then go straight to something good!
