bump....

is it possible to fit one of these H165 LSD centres into a stock H145 open diff case?

Will these work in a 200sx / s12 axle? if so i'd feel stupid to not get one, i suspect they won't be so easy to get in the future.

what's the cost inc freight to the states?

The H165 diff needs a H165 housing to go into, they are larger than the H145....

I dont know if they fit the 200SX's, I think youll find they have a R180 diff centre in them?

200sx/S12 have the following diff's fitted depends on the engine and market as what is actually fitted.

IRS R180, IRS R200, solid H190. Engines were CA18E, CA18ET, CA20E, FJ20, FJ20T

The key is in the simple code
R= Nissanspeak for independant rear end diff & since I dont use one, thats as far as I go.

H= Nissanspeak for live axle diff
145= the diameter of the ring gear in millimeters. The same applies to the other numbers [150, 165 & 190] It is possible to install an H150 into the rear axle housing that originally came with an H145 & it is possible to install the internals from the 1200's iron carrier H145 into the earlier 1000's alloy diff carrier, & it now looks like the same is possible with the alloy & iron carriers for thre H165.
Each differential assembly is physicly larger [or smaller] than its brothers & internal parts stand less than a snowflakes chance in hell of interchanging between other model differentials.

If you have a 1200, & you want to use an H165 differential [LSD or otherwise] you will need to either source a ute rear axle assembly, or narrow one down from any of the larger models that used them.

Hey peoples - has anyone received their diff yet?

If so, what do you think - was it worth it?

(I've got cash now, and I'm think hard about it )

tnp, i guess you're asking if it made a difference in traction?

b210slpr, ddgonzal says S110 came with H165's. LINK

so the s110 / 200sx / gazelle whatever thing when sold in the states had the h165 and rear disks ( that work with the stock parking brake )

i always mess up the h165 and h190. Did we even have h190's in the states?

since it's either this lsd or I get to design one for h165/disk rear end that uses the brakes to control wheel spin.

Who has one, how does it go?

Nah, I really meant "whats the workmanship like and does it work well?"

I'm not doubting Topgears work - I merely want a user-review on these particular diffs.

Cheers,
