For you LSD experts out there...
So I recently purchased a NISMO GT PRO LSD, and NISMO has always advertised their diffs as 1.5 adjustable to 2 way...
Here is the instructions for the NISMO diff on adjusting the NISMO lsd to either 1.5 way or 2 way; notice how for the 1.5 way the diff is set on the flat triangle while for 2 way its set on the diamond:

However, if you look at every other clutch type diff out there, the flat triangle represents 1 way, while a rounded triangle is 1.5 way and the diamond is the typical 2 way:

So my question to you all is why is the NISMO LSD different from the other clutch type LSD's? Is the NISMO diff truly a 1.5 way when its set per instructions?
