Differential rebuild

I busted the input pinion bearing on my NISMO LSD. The input pinion is totally seized.

Anyone know a rebuild kit?

I found the bearing online, but think they may be other components on the input pinion shaft that may need replacement.

Sorry- I've never heard of a rebuild kit for a NISMO LSD. In most cases, it means starting over with a fresh unit.

The diff itself is fine. It’s the input pinion on the pumpkin that busted.

For actual parts its just a nut, oil seal, 2 bearings, pinion shim (reuse if it isnt damaged) and crush spacer...not that many parts but you need quite a few tools to get the job done.

Check the FSM it outlines everything in great detail.
