Nismo GT Pro Clutch Type Limited Slip Differential
The Nismo GT LSD is a 1.5 way (upgradeable to 2 way) limited slip differential designed to provide maximum traction that is most often lost in hard off-the-line acceleration. The unit will sense when one wheel starts losing traction due to track/road conditions, hard cornering, and/or torque steer. Once it detects the slippage, it will compensate by shuffling the power from side to side to overcome the loss of traction. This translates into better track or quarter mile times, and more efficient use of the engines power. The LSD is adjustable in 60%, 80%, and 100% lockup mode. This LSD is VDC compatible (although you will have to turn VCD off to enjoy the full benefits). The Nismo GT LSD is a full install kit, including everything shown, and is perfect for the base model adding an LSD or those of you upgrading your VLSD for a more powerful LSD.

20 large-diameter plates

Increasing the number of plates to 20 makes the shift from slip to lock dramatically smoother. The diameter of the plates themselves, which are the actual slipping faces of the LSD, was augmented 55% over existing models. The result is a decreased load on each sliding face for a 30% gain in durability.

Plate tooth design : the greatest tooth surface for the highest power efficiency

The plates have 16 outside teeth which pick up the power input from the engine and eight interior teeth handle input from the road. The case and side gear, which catch and hold the plate gears, have been set with ultimate precision, giving you a large-diameter-plate LSD that completely controls slip judder. You will get stable, smooth, effective power and improved durability.

Special treatment for highest-quality plates

A special heat treatment developed exclusively by NISMO is applied to all of the plate surfaces. This finish eliminates catching during slippage and ensures a smooth, linear operation. It keeps the plates working in harmony when they are first broken in, guarding against plate scorching as well as any loss of initial torque.

High level of control

The GT L.S.D. brings you more than just strength and efficiency. It also reduces power loss from occurring during time trials and provides the solid traction needed to attain higher cornering speeds. All of this will give you better angle control when drifting.

For $1200 you can buy other differentials that have been track proven...

OS Giken
Quaife
Carbonetic

I believe all of those are going to be around the 1200$ range, maybe slightly less.

What are you looking to gain out of changing the rear diff? I don't think you need a 2 way unless you plan on drifting.

I have been looking to change mine as I think it's a bit worn out... :-/

LafitteZ · 10-28-2011, 03:51 PM

cuz i have 548 rear whp and the tires set up is a good set up. The open diff i cant get the rubber to the road.

LafitteZ · 10-28-2011, 03:52 PM

i dont wanna put a wider tire cuz thats only gonna go so far and its gonna mess up the look i want and its gonna rub more.

LafitteZ · 10-28-2011, 03:55 PM

the others seem to need more stuff to go with it to go in the sport model 370

SPOHN · 10-28-2011, 04:08 PM

The Nismo one is supposedly the loudest of all. And so far as extra parts they are very minimal and not to costly. I have the OS Giken and love it. I feel it's the best one out there. Course this is a bias statement but they have a very well know rep.
