Any one know what the LSD ratio on an '89 325i Touring would be?
It does the same speed in top gear @ the same rpm as my old coupe did and that had an LSD too.
It would be either 3.64:1 or 3.91:1 wouldn't it?

I though that's waht it would be, and that would be the same as the coupe. Was the 3.64 on the sports?

Cheers guys :D :cool:
