A
great upgrade for drivers looking for added acceleration and grip for their E36
3 Series*.
Changing
your cars gearing is one of the most effective performance improvements you can
make for the money. For example, swapping from a 3.15 to 3.46 ratio will give
your car 10% more torque delivered to the rear wheels! All of our differentials
are limited slip units, meaning that both wheels pull - no more wheel spin. We
will exchange your current differential for a unit built exactly to your
specification. We have every ring and pinion ratio available including
extra-short Motorsport ratios.
We
have 6 different types of limited slip units available to suit your particular
needs**:
- 2 Clutch - Based off the
factory limited slip carrier, this unit is great for street use and is easy on
the wallet.
- 3 Clutch - This 3 clutch unit
is designed to further increase the locking abilities of the differential for
more aggressive traction and grip. Great for street cars seeing numerous track
days per year.
- 3 Clutch with Custom
Engaging Ramp Angles - Our best selling carrier type. The carrier
incorporates custom ramp angles built into the carrier for an engagement that
is more substantial and track oriented. This unit offers excellent turn-in and
the abilities to lay down some serious power earlier during track-out. The unit
has proved to greatly reduce track times and as a result, created some very
happy customers!
- Quaife - Unlike a
conventional plate-style limited slip differential, the Quaife Helical LSD
differential relies on gears rather than clutch plates for its operation. The
Quaife helical LSD never locks harshly with a set pre-load of wheel slip across
the driven axle. Rather, the Quaife Helical LSD automatically biases the torque
away from the spinning wheel across the axle to a constantly varying degree,
never locking completely.
- Kaaz - Dramatically
reduced chattering noise, excellent heat dissipation, smoother engagement,
longer life-wear, and no break-in period required. These features along with
KAAZ’s standard characteristics of lightning fast reaction time, adjustable
engagement settings, and virtually hassle free operation make the KAAZ unit an
excellent choice for both street and track.
- OS Giken - The increased
number of friction discs not only dramatically improved the LSD's locking
force, it enables it to lock fully and completely. An added benefit to being a
fully locking mechanism is that less heat is generated, thus resulting in
incredible durability and reliability.
