JMJ | PM with an offer if you want the wheels. I have a 5th one waiting to be painted so you'd have a spare too. __________________ '99 Dinan M3 | | | 03-08-2007, 08:19 PM | #19 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Florida Posts: 2,525 | Quote: Originally Posted by L84THSKY This large case LSD vs small case LSD reminds me of the CAI debate. Why recommend the 3.45 LSD from the Club Sport, when for the same price or less, you can get the large case diff. Truth is, you don't need to buy a single thing, after buying the large case diff. The M-coupe finned cover is a bonus. Just swap a used rear cover from an E30 6 cylinder car, and that's it. Everything else on your Ti is useable. If you decide to upgrade, then swap halfshafts and flanges, and maybe the rear cover. | Yeah. I agree. If my car did not already have LSD I would not buy the small case LSD. The large case diff has more upgrade options(finned cover), and a wider range of gear ratios. But if somebody wants to buy my small case LSD for the same price that I would pay for a large case diff I would gladly sell it. | | | 03-08-2007, 10:26 PM | #20 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2005 Location: çî†ÿ øf åNgëL§, CA Posts: 5,314 | Well i know dusten has mentioned that his LSD is going to break down. Hhhmm, well how much you guys want for your 3.45 LSD's? Well ive been speaking with the guy from that ebay thread for the 3.46 diff. So you guys said with that diff i just need to switch the cover with a E30 right? He said he can get me an E30 cover for 25 bucks. And for the LSD he wants to wait for bids on ebay | | | 03-08-2007, 10:40 PM | #21 | doesn't care about you.

But, I know that the flanges that come with the E28 will not work with the Ti axles.

Most likely large case. Where did you see it?

The seller was confused because he got the diff from his neighbor who did a diff swap. Turns out what I got was the body of a 3.25 with the rear cover from the diff I was looking for. The diff of choice was the automatic tranny ratio, and his car had the 3.25 ratio. Ended up returning the diff.
