Anyone with OS Giken LSD?

B1nks · 03-05-2010, 08:29 AM

Was convinced by my girl to just keep the OS Giken and not worry about the money and get it installed because she knew I wanted it real bad. LOVE IT. Like Z1 stated with the open diff, Night and Day difference and I'm completely in love with it and SUPER stoked that I got the OS Giken. Worth the money and I don't get any of that clicking or grabbing that the one guy was saying with his, obviously bad, Nismo diff. Anyone thinking of getting this should, there really isn't any intrusiveness but definitely a noticeable difference in traction and where the power is being put. LOVE IT, thanks Z1.

I did purchase some bearing/seal package from Z1 and recommend that and so does Z1 just for piece of mind. Anyone thinking of changing the ring/pinion gear I recommend that too and Z1 recommends doing that at the same time.

To my knowledge it's just stock bearings but they are fresh because the stock bearings have already been pressed into the pumpkin and have to be unpressed and then pressed in again after the LSD install and it's just hard on them so they recommend getting new ones that only have to be pressed once. More of a piece of mind and easier on the parts. What problem you having ?
