    That was my point too, it seems fanciful that one man would discover this before the factory.

    Me too, it’s different types of ads some small, some large.

    Interesting little read here from classic Motorsports magazine https://classicmotorsports.com/articles/datsun-rising-peter-brock-bre-datsun-240z/

    I should be there too. Any chance of a short afternoon cruise, would be a good thing with 15-20 z cars

    I got one of these from Ash at Moorabbin Auto. It’s been faultless, run it flat many times and no issues. Very competitive pricing too. https://www.viczcar.com/forum/topic/7726-club-cartrack-car-battery-and-charger-package-deal/

    Awesome, keep the pics coming!

    Might be worth try Subaru wreckers as well Kent, not 100% but I believe they are the same, just the spline count in the diff centre is different. That won’t trouble you as you’ll swap in the LSD diff centre to suit the Datsun axles.

    There’s these, although they’re quite pricey! He says they’re metal but doesn’t specify what. https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/60668-reproduction-headlight-covers/?tab=comments#comment-556374 I’d pay that much IF they were stainless.

    It will be a large ‘K’ cast in the top of the diff case, this differentiates it a late R180 with 115mm crown wheel. They were from the mid 80’s onwards.

    So far everyone says no. Those ‘friends’ can’t tell you a way around, rather than asking on a public forum?

    Spirit garage S30Z love it

    Looks to be the same car as in this Petrolicous video, it is a very cool story!

    I ran a 4.11 with a 260z .864 5th, now with a Rb20det box with a .833 5th I pull the same rpm at 100kph with the 4.375. I’d say go for it if you don’t plan long highway drives at 100 for hours on end.

    Old Torsen diff centre out and sold. Came out in very good condition, magnetic drain plug was spotless and no signs of wear. OS Giken super lock installed and lock wired. I used a bearing heater to install new bearings, so much easier than pressing them on, new seals and the special Subaru diff cover gasket with the baffle in front of the breather. All wipe patterns and specs checked out. 1.3L of OS-250R oil. Short test drive, you don’t even know it’s there!

    Sold pending payment

    R180 K series Torsen LSD diff centre, suits 115mm crown wheel with bolt in axles. Very limited use, professionally setup, magnetic diff plug spotless. $1450 when new. $550inc post Aus wide. More info http://members.optushome.com.au/amaxeng/five10/diff.htm

    Picture shows OS Giken with bearing fitted. The order from inside to outside is bearing with rollers, inner bearing race, Diff centre bearing hub. So the bearing doesn’t have direct contact with the axle. The smooth inside of the OS Centre hub has no holes or grooves and that’s where the flat from the side axle will sit. Perhaps is an oil relief path from the diff centre, either way with the Giken centre it doesn’t seem to matter which way the flat is facing does it?

    What a flog!

    I couldn’t find any reference to it in the Yellow Nissan service manual. The Torsen just has two crossing groves in the side of the carrier, kind of like an ‘X’. Not sure what the OS Giken has yet.
