350zedd Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Have been using the specified Nissan diff fluid as recommended by traders on here Part No.KE907-99932 On the back of the 1L container it states: "Nissan genuine differential fluid formulated and approved for Nissan differential gear vehicles. Not to be used when a Nissan genuine LSD fluid is required." When is genuine LSD fluid required? Can someone please explain the last bit as I'm a bit confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Sounds like your using oils for an open diff in your lsd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Simples, genuine LSD fluid is required when you run a genuine Nissan LSD. I am assuming you have a UK car with a Viscos diff which is not a genuine LSD Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Alex if mine is Jdm with a lsd is it the same as UK one ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 If your JDM runs a stock viscos diff then the same fluid will apply. If it is a stock non viscos than hypoy 80/90 is what you will require. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am assuming you have a UK car with a Viscos diff which is not a genuine LSD Alex. Ok Alex its a 57 HR, if its a viscous diff I assume it uses something like silicon oil which is in a sealed unit and cant be changed. The rest of it is like an open diff, hence the standard oil used.Am I correct in thinking this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
