I know I can use almost any E30 diff, but I'm lazy and don't have the time to fiddle with modding the half shafts, too. I don't check the board too often, so email is best: BudgetM3@yahoo.com Thanks! | | | 08-03-2006, 01:22 PM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 | Read my thread. http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthrea...t=11529&page=3 Quote: Originally Posted by Budget M3 I really like the stock ratio, but want LS for the track.

My original 3.45 LSD lastest a couple years before needing to be rebuilt. I ended up going with the larger housing. Actually I went for a Quaife. $$$ but a lifetime warranty. __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti 2003 MINI Cooper S 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org | | | 08-04-2006, 05:34 AM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2004 Location: LA & Colo Spgs Posts: 210 | L8--Appreciate the info. I did read your thread...sounds like a more involved job than I want to do myself. I am looking for a quick "plug'n'play" solution. Stephen--good advice as always...if a quick solution is not in the cards and I pay someone else to do the job due to time constraints, I will definitely look into the Quaife. Soooo.....anyone have any good leads on a 3.45 LSD? | | | 08-06-2006, 07:57 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2004 Location: LA & Colo Spgs Posts: 210 | ^^^ | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | Similar Threads | Thread | Thread Starter | Forum | Replies | Last Post | Deep Throaty Sound | Beatty754 | Exhausts | 31 | 10-18-2007 02:12 AM | |
