Olivier- sorry to hear about your problems with the NISMO LSD. It's definitely acting like a full locker- your description fits it perfectly. I've not had this problem, and most Nissan racers get it dialed in quickly. Recheck your settings and installation is the best I can give you from afar- something is NOT right!

09-22-2020 07:17 PM - permalinkOlivierBedardHi, I've read on many of your posts that you are racing with the Nismo GT LSD Pro. We have installed this diff and ran a few test days in our race car so far and we are suffering from massive understeer under deceleration and massive oversteer snaps on power. It made the car pretty hard and not very efficient to drive. We thought it was still in the middle setting but when trying to adjust it, it was already at the lowest adjustment. Have you had the same issue at first or heard of people having the same problem? Thank you for your help. Olivier Bédard
