has anyone tried Nismo diff, and are they quieter than Kaaz?

also has anyone recorded the sound of a noisy mechanical diff? I wonder what it sounds like kinda hard to imagine as I've never heard one doing normal operation or during a 3 point u-turn, etc.?

its hard to explain the sounds, it sounds like the plates are ingauging in the lsd. but like i mention before if you uses the correct oil and run the lsd in correcly you wont have a problem as it wont be noisy.

i imagine that a nismo will be similar to kaaz, being that if its uses correctly it shouldnt be that noisy...

The Kaaz 1.5 way that I got came with the carrier bearings and everything else needed. I took the housing out myself and took it to a diff specialist who put it in for $80. But they were going to charge $550 if I just dropped the car off to them! Maybe they thought the whole rear end would have to come out?

Either way, very happy with the diff, for $1050 delivered you cant got wrong!

I just did the bed in process in the middle of the day in the work carpark, makes for some interesting looks... :huh:

    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
