Terra Firma Automotive supplies genuine Nissan differential adjustment components essential for precise R200 limited-slip differential setup on twin-turbo Z32s. This 1.01 mm side gear thrust washer is the exact OEM selective shim used to control side gear clearance and backlash inside the differential. Precision-ground to Nissan’s exact thickness tolerance, it ensures proper positioning of the side gears for smooth operation and optimal load distribution under the high torque output of the VG30DETT engine.
Correct side gear clearance is critical for differential performance. Too much or too little clearance can cause clunking, whining, uneven power delivery, or accelerated wear. This authentic 1.01 mm thrust washer provides builders with one of the key selective options needed to achieve factory-specified tolerances during a professional rebuild.
At Terra Firma Automotive we stock the full range of these selective differential shims and washers because they are vital for a quiet, strong, and long-lasting rear end. Whether you are fully rebuilding a high-horsepower twin-turbo differential, refreshing the internals, or performing a complete rear differential restoration on your 1989–1996 Fairlady Z or 1990–1996 300ZX, this 1.01 mm side gear thrust washer helps achieve precise gear setup and reliable performance.
