Nismo GT Pro 1.5 LSD

VSS370z · 03-31-2013, 04:18 PM

Does anyone here have any input or experience with the Nismo GT LSD on our cars. I know there are other great options like OS Giken,Quaife,ect. but wanted to know any opinions anyway. Thanks!

Quaife seems to be popular around here..

Hmm, didnt even know this was an option.

Looks good, I like the adjust that is possible with it. I wonder how it compares to a KAAZ for example.

Here are install instructions in case you wanna take a look.

People have said it's very loud and that it has more chatter compared to OSGiken. This plus OSGiken's reputation caused me to choose their LSD over the Nismo one, however, it's all based on other people's words. I've never experienced myself and don't even know if what other people mentioned was also just something heard from someone else.

Does anyone actually have this LSD and can they comment on their experience with it?

From what I was told the 2-way nismo LSD that comes on the Nismo RC is overly aggressive. I believe the Doran Z is using an OS Giken LSD fwiw.

The Nismo unit we were using was solid and for the street it should be fine.
The OS Giken we are currently running has more adjustability and has more room to be fine tuned.
We have better mid corner rotation with our current setup than we experienced last year.
