I have a 3.64 LSD in mine Works fine

[palerider325icab]

Well thats a start cheers mate,what i need to know is it the right diff for my car as i dont want any trouble with my gear ratio down the line.
Its going to cost me Ԛ£60 plus to get it fitted might as well be the right one.

Cheers mate.

Can anybody tell me if its the best ratio suited for my car ? Will i notice a difference aside form no whining bearings.

If yours has got a 3.91 in at the moment then it will rev slightly lower on the m/way. Also the acceleration might be slightly slower.

[palerider325icab]

Mine does not have a lsd at the moment as the motorsports did not come with one.
So what you telling me now is my car is going to be slower but it wont be noisy [bearing] so what is the correct ratio for a 325i cab if you where fitting a lsd what is a great all rounder.


Ryan

[Davenotouring]

A great all rounder is the 3.64 mate, that's good.

You will notice now with an LSD that the arse end might step out easier, but it should be more controllable in most situations.

[palerider325icab]

Thanks Dave i will gladly hand over my money now.

Ryan,

Motorsports did come with an LSD, they are just soft top sports in funky colours. They also have the close ratio box

Ԛ£60! Fcuk me! Its only about an hours work if they pull thier finger out!

Shame ur not further south!

Mine has a normal box and will still get to 140 (with a long enough drive way!)

Apparently they didn't Si, it was an option.

[palerider325icab]

Yes a lsd was an option on the motorsports,so i have been told.
I phoned up today to pay for the lsd Ԛ£150 plus Ԛ£20 postage costs okay i am fine with that in fact am very happy untill he says plus VAT.
That more or less Ԛ£50,i dont know for sure but can breakers yards charge you vat on a second hand part some how it seems wrong to me.
So now i am back to square 1.
If anybody else wants to buy 1 here is the number 01405869024 i think he has 2 as i wont be buying one.

Cheers

[Richy325iTouring]

yes they can
terms of their licence means they have to be vat registered (does depend on other things as well)
allought my local one lets me have stuff cash and tyres which he not allowed to sell
