Want a Quaife HLSD?
Why has no one posted this info yet?


The N16 Files: Quaife ATB LSD Now Available for 32A and 70A Gearboxes


Quaife ATB LSD Now Available for 32A and 70A Gearboxes
Thanks to some blokes Down Under Quaife now has a ATB (Automatic Torque Biasing) helical gear LSD for the RS5F32A series gearboxes. And as you know a LSD for that gearbox also fits the RS5F70A. The LSD is so new its no yet up on Quaife's website but the listing is available in Quaife's 2013 catalogue. You can download the catalogue here. Part number is QDF17L (Nissan Almera/Primera).

It wont be cheap, but all you 32 or 70 series open diff guys have the option finally after almost a decade of them discontinuing the old part number for the 32V transmissions.

Re: Want a Quaife HLSD?
We ran a massive group buy with Quaife UK last year (Almera Owners/Primera Owners), providing them with open diffs so they could tool up and start production.

They have them on the shelf currently for open diff boxes and they also have stock of vlsd replacements.

I've recently fitted the new diffs to a normal GT box and a 70 series box.

32 and 70 series use the same diff, if it works for one, it will work in the other. @GregV should be able to confirm that.

Cusco has made two kinds for the Nissan transmissions for a while now. The Type RS and type MZ diff. from Cusco. L.S.D. type-RS / type-MZ Parts & Products PRODUCTS English page CUSCO

99% sure the Type MZ diff acts just like the Nismo unit whereas the Quaife does not act like a Nismo unit and will go open-diff if one tire leaves the ground.

well i did a little post here, and the above one on the pga, after "the sam" convinced me last year that they actually had some. this was the (still not on their website..idiots) qdf17l model for open-wheeler diffs.

i will say its a great option for a street car / daily drive.no special oils, no maintance, and good in the wet. a fair few euro guys swear by them

http://www.sr20-forum.com/vvl/63707-your-1st-gear-worthless-your-modded-ve-2.html

i've on-sold mine since, and bought a rs5f32v vzr gearbox, mainly because i really wanted a shorter geared box (4.1 vrs 4.44) and i didn't know about the Mfactory final drives.

you guys will probably want the QDF6L (for lsd) model for your sentra's/g20's etc

32v and 70v the same diff.

Re: Want a Quaife HLSD?
The quaife is gear driven, similar to the B15 helical diff, whereas the Cuscos are plated (very aggressive).

How often can you honestly say you have a front wheel off the ground to consider getting the quaife a negative..

They are fantastic for street use, and have helped put a member of our club with a stock un-opened roller rocker DE into the 13s...

Its all fine and well building these high hp motors but what good is it when you can't put the power down, step up and buy a proper diff, you will never regret it.

For race cars, doesn't hurt to view all positives and negatives of an item for our cars.
