Have driven 2x S15s with the Nismo Pro (adjustable initial torque, both on low) and 1x S15 with an older style Nismo diff without option to adjust (old Intima / trak-life S15) and there's a big difference. The latter would behave like my KAAZ diff.

So reading this, I doubled checked the receipt for my diff.....

@Kinkstaah sorry mate for all the confusion above. I have a Nismo GT Pro 2 way diff. I must have early onset dementia, I forgot it was the pro version =/ 

Sorry for the confusion everyone :(

Yeah, I mean the only photo I have seen is my own one, and looking at the ramp angles it FEELS like it's even front and back. The Nismo Pro being an adjustable uneven-ramp-1.5-way diff that-is-adjustable-ontop-of-that seems to account for everyone's experiences here.

The VLSDs have one long and one short axle inside. The helicals are either exact same length or ever so slightly different (so technically one long and one short, but only just).

Thats really interessting, are you 100% sure? Ive got a customer car there with same length axles. I cant imagine that I have one of that rare helical R34 GTT diffs here.
The diff what is mounted (i believe its an aftermarket inside) locks so much that the tires rubbs on slightly corners, almost like welded. Its really uncomfortable to drive on the road with it. So I want to mount a Kaaz 1.5 SQ, but I dont want to order twice. If you are 100% sure that Helicals have the same length, I would order that version 😃

If that is not an optical illusion then they do not look like the same length. The closer one has longer splines.

But here's the rub. You say it has an aftermarket mechanical diff in it? Well, when you buy a Nismo LSD you get 2x new stub axles to go with it, because the Nismo mechs are not intended to work with the original unequal length VLSD stubs.

    • If I had "perfect R33 GTR" kinda money I would have bought one of the crazy expensive low mileage HJA cars, but I am sadly not that wealthy. I already picked this car out of various Skylines for sale locally, most of which were worse in some way. Only a few cars were actually better but also more expensive. In terms of buying a motor locally, I at least have the option to inspect it myself and juding the seller as a person, and used or freshly rebuilt engines that some people sell are actually ok price-wise. I knew the car was going to require work, but shit piled up real fast and I haven't even driven 1000km yet as the turbo started oiling like a bitch within a few weeks after I got the car.   I assume it wasn't actually me who cracked it, though there is no way to know when that crack formed and if the previous owner even knew it was there. Buying another 05U Block can be a gamble, yeah, but the cheapest PRP cast block is like twice or more money-wise, and billet is 3 or 3 times as much. For now I am most likely just keeping the current engine, as a rebuild or engine swap isn't happening right now. But I am seriously considering buying a second engine and selling mine in return. Might be a sweet deal at the end.
    • Hi all. I need some help buying the correct size banjo bolts for my 2860 turbos. Because whoever installed them tore up the original part, I ordered new ones of this kind, because I just figured these were the most leak-resistant option as I already had trouble with a shitty braided line. I need to know the thread size of the smaller left hole, that is the turbo oil feed connection. I found out so far that the turbo oil inlet apparently has a 7/16"-24 thread, but I cannot find any listing or description of the thread size on this line. I do not have the original bolts. I tried using the bolts that were in the turbos (the ones that were mounted with the shitty braided line) but they sit very loosely so they can't be the right thread. Means either these bolts are the wrong ones (how do they fit the turbo then? no clue) or the wraparound-lines have a different thread than the turbo oil feed itself. Help is appreciated, asking Nissan directly is obviously not going to work.
    • EDIT: PSA to whoever stumbles upon this thread. It is in fact a crack in the block that caused this concern. Just letting you know. In my case, a few cm long hairline crack going horizontally above the turbo oil feed. Classic RB shit I guess
    • Might as well pop in some cams, head gasket, head studs, and a flex sensor. Full send.
