Hey everyone

I was looking for some LSD options for my V as im again looking at doing a turbo conversion if i can get the kit for a good price and all i have left to mod to support it is the diff and brakes.

I came across this and thought i would share it with you and ask for your thoughts, i have contacted the seller to see if it is compatable with the RHD V35 and what sort of oils that will be needed and if it will run on the 5 speed auto.

also if anyone knows if ill be fine on stock non brembo bakes with upgraded rotors with the turbo kit??

Brakes will more than likely be an issue, maybe upgrade to akebono... but that diff is just "too cheap" to be good? sorry if i shot you down but your better buying a 2nd hand from Field garage or JDM garage for around the $700 mark for a nismo or similar. otherwise Quaife have great diffs too...

Also you would be looking at shift kitting the auto, upgrading the trans valve, maybe putting a stall in ect. not a small job.

Pending the power increase. but yeah, be ready to spend the BUCKS! aka why ive opted for a different route.

have already done the shift kit on the auto :D and may i ask y route you have taken?

I have also found a Manual 70th anna in caribian blue that im thinking about buying to put the turbo kit on. It has brembos and an LSD apparently.

Indecisive much?

That eBay LSD looks shit. Can't even figure out how it works. Just looks like it locks the diff. Buy a 350z or v35 manual pumpkin with the vlsd already in it. Then you get a useful final drive ratio modification too. Be cheaper than that too, once fitted

You will need better brakes. You will need some form of suspension upgrade. You will need good tyres, not china spec. Otherwise IMO its just dangerous.

Mates don't let mates roll on Nankangs.

Anyway, before getting the turbo kit, get your brakes and suspension sorted out and slowly start replacing the parts that nede to be replaced. That's the path taking. Not sure about the diff in particular, haven't gotten that far yet.

    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
