nearly all parts are custom made or modified to my specs.

would also fit in a E92 of course... and i possibly will build another one for it, if it will handle like i expect it to! ;-)








yesterday i went racing with the above diff. i liked it pretty much in combination with sticky michelin slicks and on dry tarmac.

the first rollout was with pretty worn out michelin cup tires a few weeks ago and i had to much lockup for the little grip they provided. so as i thought, this is too much lockup for a high performing allround lsd but it is perfect for racing with slicks!

there was also some doubt about my racing experience (and if i can judge about what lsd setup a racecar needs) as i operate a drift-school and drift a lot myself. indeed i do not earn money with racing (unfortunately *g*) but i like it a lot and do it in my leisure time.
so i think i can judge a lsd not only for its sideways abilities but also concerning racetrack performance.

here is the video from yesterday racing at hockenheimring f1 track:


car is on kw competition 3a coilovers, (used) michelin slicks, stock engine, stock gearbox, i=4.10 final drive, 65% lsd with 6 clutchpacks...

here is the whole conversion documentation:
