I am going to be changing my diff cover to the Nismo one and I was wondering if there is a gasket between the cover and the diff housing? I can't seem to find out if there is one or not.

 

Apparently not. The FSM lists oil seals on the front and sides. The only gasket is the one on the drain plug.

 

thats kinda wierd. You would think there would be something between the cover and the housing.

 

Hey did you get yours yet? I'm hoping to have it here by the weekend.

 

It would be cool if you post a few pics of the install if you can.

mine will be here next week

 

I got mine today, I probably wont get it changed till it gets warmer though. But when I do I will take some pics.

 

oh yeah, thanks again.

 

No prob. I'm going to do the diff cover, 3.9 and lsd all at the same time. I hope to have it done by the end of Feb. I'm going to send the diff cover off to be powder coated first.

 

Where'd you guys end up getting the diff covers anyways?
Sounds interesting.

 

Many components like that now days have no gaskets---Gaskets fail and quality sealant doesnt. Also, machining is so much better and because of it the mating surfaces are more sealant friendly---I use a sealant I get through International Harvester that they use on their Diesels thats awesome, but PERMATEX Ultra Grey is fine for that

 

Darren from Intense had two in stock when I was looking. Streetd posted looking for one the same day I bought mine so I sent him Darren's way.

 

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks.

 

cool, thanks

 

i have 12 on order, just waiting for them to get here.

 

Question, one of the 2 reason for buying this cover is to improved heat exchange over the aluminum fins of the cover. won't powder coating it inhibit that exchange of heat?

 

I have them in stock for $75.00 plus shipping. PM me if you're interested. Jeff
