Experience unparalleled performance and reliability with the Nismo GT differential. Engineered to handle increased power and torque, this differential is designed for high-performance applications, ensuring your vehicle can tackle the most demanding driving conditions with ease.

Which One Should You Choose?

  • 1.5-Way LSD: Ideal for performance and race applications, the 1.5-way LSD engages under acceleration to optimize power delivery to the wheels with the most traction. It also provides moderate lockup under deceleration, enhancing braking stability and smoother turn-in—perfect for spirited street driving and track use.
  • 2.0-Way LSD: Favoured especially in drifting, the 2.0-way LSD delivers equal lockup under both acceleration and deceleration. This setup allows for easier traction break under braking, making it less forgiving on the street but highly effective for competitive drift scenarios.

Fixed*1 initial torque & internal pressure

*1 The design standard for the initial torque output value is 8.0 kgf・m at the time of delivery. After the LSD is broken in and the plates are working well together, it will stabilize at 6.0 to 6.5 kgf・m.

20 large-diameter plates

Increasing the number of plates to 20 makes the shift from slip to lock dramatically smoother. The diameter of the plates themselves, which are the actual slipping faces of the LSD, was augmented 55% over existing models. The result is a decreased load on each sliding face for a 30% gain in durability.

Plate tooth design: the greatest tooth surface for the hightest power efficiency

The plates have 16 outside teeth which pick up the power input from the engine and eight interior teeth handle input from the road. The case and side gear, which catch and hold the plate gears, have been set with ultimate precision, giving you a large-diameter-plate LSD that completely controls slip judder. You will get stable, smooth, effective power and improved durability.

Special treatment for highest-quality plates

A special heat treatment developed exclusively by NISMO is applied to all of the plate surfaces. This finish eliminates catching during slippage and ensures a smooth, linear operation. It keeps the plates working in harmony when they are first broken in, guarding against plate scorching as well as any loss of initial torque.

High level of control

The GT L.S.D. brings you more than just strength and efficiency. It also reduces power loss from occurring during time trials and provides the solid traction needed to attain higher cornering speeds. All of this will give you better angle control when drifting.

Possibility of conversion between 2-WAY & 1.5-WAY

Both 2-WAY and 1.5-WAY setups are available for purchase. By machining the pressure ring’s cam angles, it is possible to convert between 2-WAY & 1.5-WAY after purchase (this will also require a unit overhaul).

  • With the 2-WAY, the LSD is effective whether accelerating or not
  • With a 1.5-WAY, the LSD is effective only during acceleration
  • For R35, 1.5-WAY is not recommended due to its vehicle characteristics
