Hello everyone, I recently purchased a SR20de LSD manual trans with the original 4.16 final drive and since this will be raced at ITA there has been a new number of final drives that came out for the SR as options a new 4.78 came out from MAZWORX and some Australian vendor has a 5.00 final drive and the regular known 4.44 from the local Nissan dealer and my question is which of dose final drives will be a better all around final drive? I don’t want to go overkill on this also a new LSD is on the plans since the NISMO is now extinct What are the options besides the expensive carbonetics from JGY?

I ran the 4.44 on my NX2000 and it worked fine. Best part is that it's OEM/JDM parts and easily available from Nissan Motorsports (I was the one that researched and found those JDM numbers; they come from the SR16VE-equipped Suny Lucino with the "mountain" close-ratio transaxle). About $300 or so from Nissan.

BTW, while the NisMo LSD is no longer made, "NisMo" has a grassroots motorsports support program, offering contingencies for National racing and key events, not to mention VERY attractive pricing on parts as well as access to JDM stuff. Send an email to [email protected] for more info.

You wouldn't have a P/N available would you?

If you're not part of the NisMo program, you can buy them from Greg Vogel:

Unfortunately, your local dealer will be unable to get these. They're JDM part numbers, so they're not in Nissan's US parts system. Unless your dealer has some magical access to JDM parts, your sources will be NisMo or Vogel... - GA
