Does anyone offer a limited slip for the 2005 Altima SE-R?
To the best of my knowledge the current answer is no. There was talk of Quaiffe offering one up but that seems to have died out. I don't believe the 6-spd tranny in the SE-R is identical to either of the 6-spd trannies in the Max or the Sentra Spec-V so I don't believe the HLSD's available in those trannies will work with ours, but I'm not certain on this point.

Hello,
Right now we are looking at this unit as a future project, but it has not started.
Do you know if this particular Altima SE-R diff is shared by other Nissan models?
Look forward to your reply.
Sincerely.

I do not have this information at present. My original understanding was that the SE-R 6-speed is not the same as the 6-speed in either the Max's or the Sentra Spec-V models, but I've not personally done the research. Perhaps someone else knows for certain that resides on this site.

According to this site it sure looks like there’s another Nissan model that uses the 6-speed, but then I’ve read other posts that contradict this. I think the transmission model number is RS6F51A for the SE-R.

NISSAN DOES OFFER A LIMITED SLIP AS A FACTORY INSTALLED OPTION FOR 2005 AND IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN FOR 2006. I WOULD CONTACT A NISSAN DEALER TO ASK ABOUT AFTER MARKET INSTSALL AND PRICE LISTINGS. I KNOW THAT SERVICE MGR. OF A NISSAN DEALER...YOU MAY WANT TO CALL HIM FOR SOMME GOOD ADVICE. (360) 373-6300 ASK FOR BRAD B.
HOPE THIS HELPS YOU!

The helical for the Maxima or the SE-R Spec-V will fit.

There are a couple of threads on another Nissan Club forum about this and it is beginning to really look like the '04 Max HLSD will fit. Should have a test fit done within a week or so.
I'm afraid that no significant progress has been made. We're still assessing the interest, and we haven't secured a sample yet. We've spoken with a few of our dealers to see if we can get the order quantities up so that we can produce the unit at a lower per unit cost so that we can keep the retail price as low as possible. I'd like to see this one get down to $1195-1295, but right now we're looking at more like $1495 -$1595.
Please continue to have people email us confirming their interest in this product.

Subject: [JunkMail] Quaife ATB differential for Nissan Altima SE-R
Hi Harleigh,
I was just wondering how the LSD for the Altima SE-R was coming along. Were you able to get a stock unit to look at?
This is true people, I have also been in contact with Rafael Santiago of Quaife and they need to know that there is a demand from us for the LSD. I also have been in contact with Mossy performance and the owner said that if enough people contact him verifying our interest, he'll be willing to buy enough units to make it worthwhile for Quaife to make them.
If you're seriously interested in getting an LSD manufactured you need to speak up and let them know.
Well, finally got the HLSD installed! The '04 Max w/6 spd had a HLSD option, and that is the same tranny/gearbox as the SE-R! US$493 from Performance Nissan in Duarte, Ca. A few othe rsmall parts are req'd for the install, cost C$1300. What a difference! Torque steer is almost gone and the thing pulls like crazy coming out of corners! Can't wait to take it to the track and see how it does!
Quaife has pretty much given up on an LSD for the SE-R. Not that it matters now!
I had the dealer install, they took the whole tranny out and rebuilt it, there are a few shims & miscellany that need to be installed, and they had to cut out one of the gear rings (u can also buy and supply, mught save some time). Took them about 12 hours.
