Phenomenal job, Phamster! I want to thank you for spending so much time catalogging the changes, and posting them here. Lots of props to you for doing what you did, and for sharing with us.
I don't blame you for taking a break from the car for a while. __________________ 1997 332ti - Don't even ask.

Good job Phamster! This will inspire and help other members out! We should ask the mod to make this thread a sticky.  | | | | | 10-21-2007, 08:29 PM | #186 | | Z3 Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Usa Posts: 660 |

Thanks for the comments everyone, this weekend I will put a 3.45 diff in (of course I will post pictures of the process) so I can drive on the highway quicker now instead of 55-60mph. | | | | | 10-23-2007, 05:19 PM | #188 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 |
3.45? From a 318ti? Doesn't sound like a good idea. Quote: Originally Posted by Phamster Thanks for the comments everyone, this weekend I will put a 3.45 diff in (of course I will post pictures of the process) so I can drive on the highway quicker now instead of 55-60mph. | __________________

Not sure a ti small case diff will hold up over time with the increased torque. You might need to start looking for a E30 diff and half shafts. __________________

it wouldnt hurt, and eventually i say go to lsd as well out of an e30 and it will hold up muhc better. and you can get gears even longer if you perfer. __________________
