If you are looking for the best overall LSD OS Giken is it (besides the drexler(sp?), but it is over 3 grand). Their clutch is the loudest (mechanical noise) I have heard....I know it's in my car....but the LSD is very smooth with little to know mechanical noise. The nismo is going to be louder.....if it is a play toy and not something you have to live with daily....it will be more than sufficient on track. The OS is faster though....however....you are probably talking tenths of a second on something like summit main. Unless you are a National level time trial guy those tenths are probably not worth the 60% extra cost.
I am going to put one of the two in my track car this winter....I was limited to the stock VLSD per class rules for a while, but the bump up in class allows me the aftermarket LSD.
Since I seem to do much more autocross of late I will probably put in the OSG....it is a proven winner at the national level....
For reference the 350z's in club racing (T2&T3) use the Nismo LSD. If you want to get an idea of what that unit can handle....
No quaife??? Mine drives like stock and puts the power down.
^ keep in mind only CERTAIN homelink mirrors work. I believe the newer Z's have a different type of glass that will not etch correctly.
Correct... I believe you need an '03-early '04 homelink or else the glass is wrong and/or the mirror is too thin to fit the V1 remote. The pics Clay has looks like another platform cause ours don't have the compass in them do they?
Clay - make sure they/you mount the remote with a bunch of sealant or silicon so it doesn't rattle with a load exhaust. mine does have a rattle to it that is like torture on long drives.
Mike.... or anyone in the Mid-A... can someone PM a mod for me to see whats up with my Premire membership. I tried to delete some PM, but I have to purge like 600+ to get under the 100 limit. Or just copy this post in the PM, thanks.
Mod - My Premire membership should have auto renewed to my credit card on Thanksgiving day. I received an email stating that this has been done, but I have been moved to regular member status. Please correct or contact me if there is something that needs to be done on my end to correct. Thank You - Cass
