Need Help Identifying R32 Gtr Rear Diff Centre

[jamil]

Hi I just opened up a diff that I got of a mate to change the bearings. The diff centre has a marking saying LOM59 would any one know what diff centre it is? How can I tell what way it is I seen the ramping thing where there's a round thing with two sides shaped like a upside down v. It's really close to the round part there's no gap. I seen someone in another post right if they are close with no gaps it's a 2way.

But anyways if someone can help me would be great thanks

Gaps has nothing to do with the 1-way, 1.5-way or 2-way-ness of a mech centre. If the ramps are the same slope then it's 2 way.

A quick google of the term lom59 would be instructive, no?

What u mean by same slope bro. I googled the part number like nothing really tell me much there's a diff on nengan saying its a mechanical 2way that's abt it

Would u know if the factory centre has those marking or it is a aftermarket centre that I have?

Is that correct?

Oh come on! This is the FIRST link to SAU that google gives you when searching "LOM59 diff". Just the first. There are many others. How many links did you click?

A tiny bit of work would have turned up the fact that LOM59 is the Nismo 2 way, which is really just the normal GTR diff with better clutches.

Does it matter what it is?

You are going to put it back in right? Regardless of what it is?
