    2.93 is a shorter diff. Theoretically it leads to better acceleration, but I doubt you'll notice a difference between those two. I've also never heard of a 2.73. Is it a stock e30 diff?
    The first car I ever rode in was an e30

      maybe a typo going on here.
      the 2.93LDS cam stock on the 325es (eta) engine and manual.
      the 3.73 is stock for the 325is+manual.
      Much wow

          The car would feel glacially slow, but would probably give you better fuel economy.

                It would help if we knew what engine/trans your car has.

                  the 2.93 is an eta diff. Very sexy, in the way that the "Smart" car is sexy...

                  as in, not very much at all, unless getting somewhat better gas mileage gets you hot.

                    We need to know whether you have a Briggs and Stratton 2-stroke or a quad-turbo V16.
