Hey guys, got this diff today. I bought it as a 2 way 4.36 ratio. Seller wasn't sure of brand.

 

Ive done a bit of googleing and it looks similar to a kaaz, ats or possibly a tomei. There are no markings anywhere.

 

The ramp angle seems to be shallower on one side. Is it a 2 way with a weaker angle on 1 side or is it a 1.5?

 

Take a look at the pics and shoot if you have any ideas or info to identify. Cheers lads.IMG20180129135435.jpgIMG20180129135601.jpgIMG20180129135702.jpgIMG20180129135622.jpgIMG20180129151423.jpgIMG20180129151359.jpgIMG20180129151408.jpgIMG20180129151423.jpg

Looks like a Kaaz [emoji4]
Looks like mine too, here's an article I wrote a while back

Yep, already saw your article and agree it looks very similar. Looking at the pics of the cam position ive posted, does it look 2 way or 1.5 to you.

I thought 2 way first up but the more i stare at it, starts looking like 1.5. Am i trippin or what? Lol.

Btw, it doesn't feel like a kaaz, its pretty smooth and hardly chatters at all. I filled it with penrite mineral 85-140 and 30ml of limslip. Thats why i started thinking, maybe an ats super silent.

 

It does lock both wheels equally, my car has never launched this good and stayed straight while baking the rears.

    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
