Hey guys...Ive been searching about this but I cant seem to find what I need;

I have a Nismo 1.5Way LSD, and I need to change the oil. I currently have the 80w90 Nismo LSD oil in, and Ill probably put Royal Purple in since I have easy access to it and its a decent oil that has LSD additives...anywho, I need to know which weight to select. I figure their 75w90 is a good choice similiar what ive got...but maybe the 75w140 or 85w140 would be better? What would be the contrast id notice? Would the 85w140 be ok? Thanks for your help!

i use 85w140 redline..or 90w140 whatever it is
in my NISMO SSS lsd.

i would stick with the nismo oil, but thats my opinion. 85w140 wouldnt be a good idea since it is usually meant for racing applications, which run constantly high temperatures. if you dont wanna stick with the nismo oil i suggest get a similiar weight in royal purple. Redline is preferred by most people or i've heard good things about Neo syntheic oils. your choice, i stick with ATS oil for my ATS lsd. the company that makes it probably knows best what oil to use, but then again they might just want you to buy their stuff. search around, im sure you'll find the answer you're looking for.
