Looking for medium case lsd and prices are £600 plus and I'm not paying that for a tired old diff. Just want to know what else will fit. Failing that I have a large case lsd and rear end from e36 m3 sitting in my garage. Has anyone seen a large case fabricated to fit a e30 before? Sure will be cheaper to fit as I'll do all the work myself.

Cheers.

You can buy a used common ratio LSD for about £350 from most sensible breakers, failing that the LSD spools usually come up on ebay for between £200 and £300

I don't see the point in grafting a heavy weight large case to fit, unless your planning on 600hp +

Cheers I'll get looking at ask for some quotes. How can I tell it's a lsd? I don't want to be sold an open diff.
No I don't want to use it. But I have it and will cost noting to fit that's all. Will only have 350bhp
