is my j30 diff dead? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Is each tire wearing evenly or are they wearing evenly in relation to each other?

If one tire wears faster than the other your diff is wearing out. Good luck finding J30 internals. You can shim the diff but I would just invest in a reasonably priced mechanical diff. Viscous differentials do not last long in hard driving. They were meant for "luxury" cars.
