280z lsd

[Bwana]

I just purchased a IRS setup for the MG that uses a 280z pumpkin and I'm looking for either a lsd carrier or a complete pumpkin. Recommendations?

Thanks!

good luck, the ideal donr is the 87.5-89 300ZX turbo's, they came with a 3.7 clutch type LSD from the factory (easy to spot on the car due to their finned diff cover, I assume your 280z diff is the r288 found in the manual tran 76-78 280z's, many name brand manufacturers sell R200 diffs in helical or clutch type but they use the larger 12mm ring gear bolts manyr people feel you need to use spacers and just as many feel the ring gear seats tightly enough on the cariers that it's a non issue, the 84- present units all used the 12mm ring gear retaining bolts

Ditto, I have a z31 clutch-LSD in my S30 and am happy with it

the 3.7 gears are a bit high for my liking, I'm thinking of swapping back to the 3.54's

My diff is a r200L, whatever that means...
