What is this diff?

Post by gingofthesouth »

This just came out of Dildo's 510.
The diff is larger by about 1-2 cm in all dimensions than the standard R160.

Is there a straight bolt in CLSD r180?
If so, out of what vehicle?

No bolt in CLSD that I'm aware of without going aftermarket, and then the price would be the same or more than R200

I have a r180 clsd in my shed waiting to go into my blue car, few and far between ,but they do exist. Shane (bre510) has one in his car too.
Usually found in 240RS's and some early Skylines (turbo ones).

Nissan produced two CLSDs for R180s as far as I know. I have a cast one but I understand there is a NISMO steel one as well, may not have been NISMO in those days. Sorry I don't know what they are out of originally.
I have a cusco one out of a Subaru STI, but it won't fit an early housing by the looks of it, but should fit a VLSD housing.
