What diff centre are you using?  The GTR one?  As far as I know, there are no Quaifes for the non-GTR versions.

FWIW, the stock VLSD has uneven length splines, unlike the GTR diff (or any other similar mech LSD) which are even length.  Which is why when you buy a Nismo diff for these cars (for example) you get supplied new stub axles to suit, as you can't make a mech type centre take the long stub that works in the viscous centre.

Using the QDF7L centre I had in a long nose R200. Have changed to a short nose R200 from a r33 with Nismo centre and stub axles. The stub axles are very tight and won’t go all the way in. The Quaife site lists the centre as a replacement for s13 and 14. I thought the stubs were the same spline

That centre only works with the equal length stubs from the open R200s.  I think that the splines on them are different to the Nismo LSD splines.  You may be shit out of luck or have to buy an open diff to harvest the stubs and hope they're strong enough.  Oh...but the open stubs are all 3x2 bolt, not 5 bolt.

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
