Kaaz 1.5 Lsd Feedback

[rs73]

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...

To those who have had mechanical LSD centres installed...

How much labour was involved and what's a reasonable price to have it installed?

$300.

You need to press off the old bearings and press on new bearings with a proper press.

It takes a few hours on a hoist and the press.

$300 is pretty reasonable I think.

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...
