LSD

Nismo GA16 · Jul 16th, 2005, 11:56 AM

i did a quick search but didnt come up with anything.... I noticed that on me SE b14 i have a LSD, i was wondering if this cane standard or if the person that i bought it from put it on, which would explain some of them problems i am having with the car, nothing major...

thanks for the help,
Nick

none of the GA16s come with LSD, ever.

only the SE-Rs ever came with it.

Weird.. So that must mean that my LSD is an aftermarket. How can i tell what kind if LSD it is, 1.5, 2 way etc. etc...

Thanks For the Help Again,
Nick

How do you know it has an LSD? Have you had the ring gear and diff assembly out of the car?

No one really makes a direct bolt in LSD that is clutch style or gear style, which is why I am wondering how you determined you had an LSD. The only easy bolt in LSD is the phantom grip or JGY which are friction style LSD's.

what if he has a sentra SE?

**chimmike** · Jul 16th, 2005, 06:42 PM

he has a b14 sentra SE. Non-lsd. Even if it's an SR powered 99 SE-L there's no LSD in it iirc.

Not stock on se or gxe!
A few SR's have it ?
I thought SE-R's all had LSD (so which ones have it?)
And yeah, what wes said (so you took your tranny apart?)

I think a Quaiff unit would be nice, if the mechanics didn't have to drop the tranny and disect it (tranny shop do that?). And insert a custom part with no guaruntees, it could just fall apart out the drive and they be like OK we'll do it again for $$$ or OK we get you new tranny for $$$$$$$$ and install it for $$$?
IF I spend all that $, will this neat "clutching action" in my tranny wear the tranny quicker? it's allready got 90k mi on it, no problems.
Is it really worth all that in my 125hp fwd beater?
Methinks no.
Methinks if youthinks you gotta LSD then you're probabally on LSD!

Lay off the LSD man!

(to answer Dan The Man's question:
95 - 97 SE-R's run a limited slip differential.)

Yet another nissan flaw. I don't know why they didn't just stay with it on the first place.

GA16's with LSD: None
SR20s with LSD: 91-97 SE-R, 01-02 (B15 SE2.0 w/PP), all P10/11s (I believe)
SR20s w/o LSD: 98-99 SE(-R, -L), 00-02 (B15 SE2.0 w/oPP)

LSD available for GA16:
Phantom Grip(friction-type)

LSDs available for SR20 (sorted):
Stock(viscous-type) < Open+Phantom Grip(friction type) < Stock(vlsd)+Phantom Grip < Nismo(clutch type) < Quaiffe 1.5way(?)(worm gear)

BTW, the open diff+phantom grip setup will rock the stock VLSD, the stockVLSD+phantom grip will rock even harder. Also, I don't like the Nismo one at all, it's a very hard install, doesn't include all the parts, and it will eventually wear out requiring a rebuild.
