The Definitive Differential Thread

So just to verify this kit will work for upgrading rear lsd. I know I'll need a stub axle:

Also there's a post talking about ring gear bolts are those necessary?

Thank you

Does anybody have some insight?

I've been reading much about getting a finned NISMO diff cover for my TT conversion. So I had a look under my UKDM 370Z GT Edition M/T.
It was built April 2013, hence MY12.

As you can see, mine has a finned stock diff housing.. How come? When was this introduced by Nissan.. and does it mean I can skip the Nismo diff cover mod? On google I cannot find any 370Z resembling my underside

Different specs for different markets. The GCC (gulf cooperation council) spec cars also come with the he finned differential cover.

My experience installing an OS Giken LSD into my 2011

DIY - Limited Slip Differential Install

BlackZeda · 07-05-2016, 07:16 PM

So I ordered a Wavetrac LSD from Vivid Racing and am now looking at the additional parts I need to install it. I have a 2010 NISMO (which I believe has the stock VSLD) which Wavetrac's website indicates I need a "RH axle flange 38220-JK01B". Would someone confirm that this is the only part I need? Are there any other parts that would be good to replace or upgrade while I am at it?

The best price I see is here: http://www.nissanpartsdeal.com/parts...220-jk01b.html
