Is Nissan serious?!?!? LSD break in. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Per the directions for breaking in the Nismo LSD...

"Do not exceed 40mph for at least 180 miles."

I did figure 8's for an hour this weekend and I racked up a whopping 12 miles. I hope these guys aren't serious.

Well, it's funny cause for some GM cars they require 300 miles for their positraction breakin..

Andrew Bohan · 09-13-2004, 09:44 AM

Dousan_PG · 09-13-2004, 10:22 AM

haha dont worry about it
i drove mine on the freeeway after install for about 15 mins then got off did figure 8s then back home and off and on

just break it in. some people dont even do taht and its still find. its just precautionary

no worries.

i did 30 minutes of 8's and that was it... a year and a half later, 20+ drifting events, and its still going on strong =p

just remember to change your oil often.

what are you running paul, street or gt pro? i found a cheap street and am wondering how it will work with i/h/e ka. because, you know, all those bolt-ons almost make my car powerful enough to run with sr's and such...

yeah sure it will........

Johny5 · 09-13-2004, 06:09 PM

...man cmon, i thought you out of all people would've caught the lame sarcasm in that one

no but seriously, lets just say its like a stock ka still with small no-real-difference bolt-ons, will the street lsd suffice?

pruto · 09-13-2004, 10:32 PM

i have normal nismo 2 way. with completely stock KA. works fine. sliding around is no problem

Johny5 · 09-14-2004, 06:35 AM

does nismo supply fluid or is there another brand of fluid to be looking out for?

silviasichigo · 09-14-2004, 06:48 AM

Better than paying another couple of hundred for a new one. I have a nismo 2way and I just did what they said broke it in and I had it in for 4 years before it finally gave two months ago ripped the ring gear apart and the pinion is now a heavy falic symbol hahahahah

Johny5 · 09-14-2004, 06:55 AM

nice, how long of this 4 years or so was it being pushed by your 600 some-odd motor that you posted in the dyno thread?

silviasichigo · 09-14-2004, 07:09 AM

Oh actually right after I put everything together and did a few runs it snapped so right after that.

justinhustle · 09-14-2004, 08:29 AM

which nismo unit you guys got?

ICKY · 09-14-2004, 01:02 PM

My brother had an Intake and Exhaust with a KAAZ 2way clutch type, no problems whatsoever.
