LSD anyone?

[sleepingbeauty]

anyone want to trades LSDs?
I am looking for a 3.23 ratio
I have a 3.73 and a 2.97 lsd for trade.

373 has a known 163xxx miles on it, running well, still in my car no noise or signs of slipping.

2.97 was from a parts car with unknown miles, seems to be in good condition to me

Did they even make a 3.23 that will bolt up to an E30? It's a common E36 diff, which definitely won't.

3.25?

I'm almost certain they did. ;)

Ok, ok. It won't "bolt up," but if you swap the diff cover I think it will.

[sleepingbeauty]

yeah its a e36 diff, swapping the covers will work to make it bolt on. 3.23, 3.25 you know, in that range

Consider a 3.46? It's an extremely fun ratio for a 24v+E36 zf transmission.

E28 diff?

I think a 3.46 would be perfect for my E30. 3.73 is short, but I don't think i'll be doing much more +140mph in the car, so maybe the 3.73 will be more fun on the track.

either an E28 or an E24 I think.

I am considering the 3.46, the 3.73 was kind of short on my m20 but I enjoyed it. it is tooo short for my swap. what top speed will the 3.46 give me? i have 125 with the .73

Faster than you should be going with stock E30 4lug brakes.

Real answer: somewhere 150mph ish, assuming you have the power to push through the aero drag, which is unlikely.

Play around with this spreadsheet and you'll be able to answer your questions (the ratios in it are for the E36 M3 transmission, I don't know which one you've got): http://www.diffsonline.com/techinfo/...Calculator.xls

[sleepingbeauty]

noobish question I guess, what are the variable numbers? that are given for the rpm

[ZombiE30]

would you be willing to sell the 2.93?

I'm tired of this 3.73.

[sleepingbeauty]

yes I am but will not be able to until I return from boston/miami, the end of this month
