just get a silvia LSD

if you use a skyline lsd you have to also use the axles and the entire skyline driveshaft.

NO THEY ARE NOT THE SAME! THEY ALL HAVE DIFFERENT TIRE ROTAION RATIO'S, THE R33 HAS A HIGHER RATIO SO QUICKER ACCEL IF I'M THINKING STRAIGHT THIS MORNING. AND TO ANSWER YOUR OTHER QUESTION YES MOST NISSAN DIFFS ARE INTERCHANGABLE, AND ITS NOT TRUE THAT YOU HAVE TO USE THE RB DRIVE SHAFT.

I WOULD SAY A HIGHER RATIO LIKE AN R32 OR R33 LSD WILL WORK. THESE ARE EITHER 4.11 OR 4.323 ITS ALMOST A HALF SECOND DIFFERENCE FROM STOCK DIFF.

I'm one of the reasons peoples are saying bad things... there are about 4 of us who have been waiting a while, the others are real late, even though I paid for it like 2 months ago it wasn't suppose to be here till this week, but its not gonna... word is that it will be NEXT week. I am hoping thats right. I ordered a GTR LSD, Night says they hold better. But last I asked he said all he had in were GTS-T one,s so I should get a 50 dolla refund for the diff.

dispite the problems we are having u should give Night a call, a clip is different than an LSD and I think he may already have some of those state side. If you do buy one make him sign some sort of cotnract BEFORE you pay, thats the only real problem the rest of us ar ein, no actual signed contracts.

Are you serios bro!!!!???? Even IF you do get your clips, I wouldnt buy **** else from him. Someone said it took alot of weeks to get a downpipe. I personally wouldnt buy **** from him. Basically i doubt he is conning people because of the simple fact that 10,000 isnt worth going to jail or getting your *** whooped for honestly. If I am going down, it will be for far more than 10G's. If nothing else, he doesnt pick business partners well and doesnt have his **** together. Not a very reputable source of any parts if you ask me until his **** is got together

HERE IF YOU WANT CALL NIGHT FIND OUT WHAT HE HAS I'LL PICK IT UP AND PERSONALLY SEND IT TOO YOU. I FOR ONE HAVE NOT FU*KED ANYONE OVER, AND DON'T PLAN ON IT. IF HE DOESN'T HAVE IT IN STOCK THEN I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU. I AM SAYING THIS BECAUSE HE LIVES CLOSE TO MY JOB AND I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACTED WITH HIM RECENTLY.

I hear ya spec, thats a very good point.. I was just sayin, I think he'd be in a hurry to helps someone if there was a CONTRACT first, therte is a guy in florids who bought na engine from night and had it in like a month because he wouldn't hand over the money till there was a signed contract, was just a thought for getting an LSD... now that I think about it you may also ant to contact a company called accelerated concepts, the guy there might be able to hook you up.

Dont get me wrong, I wasnt yelling at you. I kinda felt that was the impression I was giving in that post. I think it is pitiful all the jackign that is going on throughout all the boards. And the run a round. Going on vacation and **** when you have 4 unsatisfied customers. Yeah right. Whatever. I am glad he contributed to the community but it would take alot for me to purchase from him or recommend anyone to buy from him. Just my two cents. i would call an importer and see if they could hook you up. I would use him as a last last resort

Accelerated Concepts is located in Ft. Walton Beach, FL. and is a decent company from what I've heard. I never purchased anything from them tho, so buyer beware, but Ben from AC is a nice guy.
