About this part

Product Details

OS Giken is well-known for making high-performance drivetrain components, and their Super Lock Limited Slip Differential (LSD) for the Nissan Skyline R32/R33 with RB20DE/T engines, and the 180SX/S13 chassis, is a prime example of their expertise. If you're looking to significantly improve your car's traction and handling, especially during spirited driving or on the track, this LSD is a serious upgrade over a factory open differential. It's designed specifically for manual transmission vehicles, ensuring a direct and effective integration into your existing drivetrain.

What sets the Super Lock LSD apart is its unique clutch pack design. Unlike some other LSDs that can be overly aggressive or chatter during normal driving, the OS Giken unit offers a smooth engagement that still locks up effectively when you need it most. This means you get the benefits of a locked differential – improved acceleration grip and better cornering stability – without sacrificing daily drivability. The internal components are made from well-built materials designed to withstand the stresses of performance driving, ensuring reliability and consistent performance over time. Installation involves replacing your factory differential, so it's a job that requires some mechanical know-how and specific tools, but the result is a much more capable and predictable vehicle.

This LSD is a substantial investment in your vehicle's performance. It's designed to work with the specific characteristics of the RB20DE/T and the S-chassis platforms, offering a tailored solution for enthusiasts looking to maximize their car's potential. When installing, ensure you follow the manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure to get the most out of the differential and ensure its longevity.
