but do either fit the RS5F70 transmissions? that is the question. I heard someone on this board say once that Nismo does not make a limited slip for the B15 trannies, but it has never been officially (and by that I mean by someone that has tried it) confirmed or denied.
Also, the OEM lsd one is about $700. that's a pretty big difference from the $1075 for the non-lsd unit listed on mossy performance. but its offset by the lower cost of the non-lsd tranny by a little.
Never seen a writeup on one of these nismo lsd installs either: any shimming required for these front drive lsds? I know it is needed on the rear dirivers to adjust axle bias and breakaway torque.
Seeing how the breakaway torque is "pre set" at 36 ft-lb, I would guess not, but doesn't hurt to ask.
EDIT:
I just got a email from greg. Thanks alot man!

do the limited slips that are listed on your site fit 5 speed 2001 and
2002
G20s (transmission RS5F70A or V)?

I can't get any confirmation from anywhere that they do, and your
application list is a bit ambiguous.
also, is the unit a straight drop in or does it need to be shimmed and
adjusted?
is a housing gasket provided in the install kit also or does
the transmission just use the grey RTV for that seal?
Thanks for your time

In order of your questions:
Yes they fit. Order the correct one. w/ or w/o OEM LSD
Straight drop in sort of, you may still need to check clearances, but
that's normal.
Silicone.
Thanks,
