I currently run my setup with a 3.73 lsd and it is fun but I am now in possession of a 4.10lsd that I took on trade for some parts. I have checked it out and it is in great shape ( short of the fin I just broke off the cover). I am wondering if it would make the car any faster in the real world to swap in the 4.10 for my 3.73. I know that the 4.10 made my last M20 e30 a rocket. Has anyone run this setup?

I am just thinking that the car is mostly a toy anyway so rpm on the freeway is no issue. It revs to 7200 rpm so I should still be able to hit 60 in second and just get into fourth in the quarter. I am wondering if it would make it quicker to 60 and then to 90. I know that in some cases the gearing does not match the power band and I am not sure about 4.10.1989 332IS -S-Fiddy Four-Some weight removed.

I had a m50 g260 4.10 loved every minute of it. How are you able to rev to 72??Originally posted by blunttechr3v does not fuck around. First you get banned, then they shoot youComment

I would say if it were an M50 a 4.10 would be fun. For an S50, don't do it.
The S50 is nice and torquey. I feel like it will actually lose performance with too short of a gear. Keep the 3.73.Comment

isn't a G260 and the 4.10 similar in gearing to a ZF and 3.25 that lots of people use?
1st gear will certainly not be usless with a 7200rpm redline..Comment
