Quaife is the best for DD and has ZERO maintenance.

Similar operation, should be different part numbers.

Quaife doesn't lock up both wheels because it's a helical. If you want to try drifting helical a are no fun.

bringing this back from the dead. Who here been running an aftermarket diff for sometimes? how you like it? how is the maintenance? I am leaning towards buying an aftermarket diff but I don't see much discussed about the subject.

All of my research steers me toward the Wavetech differential. The company known as Autotech was formerly one of the main Quaife distributors before they decided to create their own differential.

I believe they have an exclusive deal with Nissan to resell them. So you can order them from your local dealer.

Jar naied it and that is why I went with them. If I'm not mistaken Nissan uses Wavetrac on thier 370z race cars. Also I got mine from Vivid Racing, you may want to compare cost.

Maybe we can save some coin if we have 2 of them shipped up to Canada at the same time.

I have a stock sports model 370Z.

Do I need the Quaife?

Will it help me with better launching?

I do not plan to tack my car atm, maybe in the future yes.

I have an OS Giken 1.5 way. Make sure you do diff bushings and something with the subframe. I did Nismo subframe bushings. You will also want to do a diff cooler if you go with a clutch type diff. You won't need it if you do a Wavetrac. I would also recommend a Bellworks diff brace. It will need to be modified if you have a Fast Intentions exhaust or the like.
