Opened up my differential that I got from Jarco like 2 years ago and I think I've got a Nismo LSD on my hands. I need some confirmation though.

I think it's a 2 way, is that right??







Thanks

Its a two-way, and looks alot like my KAAZ. If it is Nismo it should say Nismo right on the carrier.

Thanks man.

I'm pretty sure it's a NISMO LSD after all the pics I've looked at online.

Anyone know where to buy replacement clutch discs for this LSD since it has been discontinued.

Is the diff shot?? There arent any clutch discs in a 2 way diff...

Also, A Nismo diff will say Nismo on the carrier. Like I said, it looks identical to my KAAZ 2-way diff.

Really? Are you sure there aren't any discs that wear down over time?

Idk if the diff is shot or not but I have no clue how many miles are on it either. I was going to see if i could change out the discs to start fresh.

Not sure about a rebuild kit, but I ran mine and drifted with it with a 400HP SR for years, and the ring and pinion blew out on me but the diff lasted through 4 sets of ring and pinions, and I am selling it as used, but, I almost just put it in my 2JZ powered coupe, but I DD that car and didnt want the diff noise every turn, went with an s15 helical this time, and love it. Loved the 2 way, just makes alot of noise in turns, and dont plan on lookin too cool parellel parking with that diff, it sounds like something is broken when it is not.
