Terra Firma Automotive supplies genuine Nissan differential adjustment components critical for accurate R200 limited-slip differential assembly on twin-turbo Z32s. This 1.49 mm side gear thrust washer is the exact OEM selective shim used to set side gear clearance and backlash. Precision-ground to Nissan’s exact thickness specification, it allows builders to achieve optimal gear positioning and smooth operation under the high torque and horsepower output of the VG30DETT engine.
Proper side gear clearance is essential for differential performance. Incorrect thickness can cause clunking on load changes, uneven power delivery, or accelerated wear. This authentic 1.49 mm thrust washer provides another precise option in Nissan’s selective range, helping achieve factory-correct tolerances during reassembly for quiet and reliable function.
At Terra Firma Automotive we stock the complete selection of these selective side gear thrust washers because they are vital for a professional differential rebuild. Whether you are overhauling a high-horsepower twin-turbo rear end, refreshing the internals, or performing a full differential restoration on your 1989–1996 Fairlady Z or 1990–1996 300ZX, this 1.49 mm side gear thrust washer helps ensure precise setup and long-term performance.
