EH 370z Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Yes you would have to contact Nissan directly, the dealer network wouldnt carry this info for a JDM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFM Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I don't know if this will help but it is all the specs for JDM. http://www.japanvehicles.com/newcars/ni ... Z/main.htm Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnUKVetteNut Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 Hi Mike,thanks for that Thats put the cat amongst the pigeons... According to that chart all Fairlady imports have a viscous lsd as standard, but I have read on this forum about JDM's that lsd's were not fitted to base Fairlady models? So does anyone know how to visually tell if I have a lsd or not please? The upside is i now know what the gear ratios are for an auto so I can work out whether my speedo is accurate or not! Very usefull download..thank you JohnUKVetteNut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnUKVetteNut Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 Hi Folks Just to let you know I contacted Nissan Uk to check my car and they cannot help as its imported. But they gave me Nissan email in Japan and I emailed them and 12 hours later got a reply asking for vin number and they would send me a "build sheet" from their records!! So have sent vin and awaiting reply..will post outcome John UKVetteNut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnUKVetteNut Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 Hi folks i have had contact from Nissan Japan and emailed me a basic build sheet..(very courteous and quick service) and did confirm that i have a LSD ( viscous type fitted) so as my car is a base JDM model i assume that means all JDM's have lsd? They are also sending me ( by post free of charge) a copy of the factory build sheet! Brilliant service..just wish our UK car makers had the same outlook on their customers JohnUKVetteNut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Good result I wish UK dealers of all cars not just domestic had the outlook and vision to give the type of customer service you just rcvd from japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
