Correct it's the exits that are diff on the exaust manifold, has larger diameter pipes and 4 studs instead of 3 (was a bit of a budget blow out when I did mine.. was a student and had counted on using the old exaust)
-
The throttle bodies are different the 2.5 is heaps bigger I had to modify the 2.5 one for my vac advance/retard lines (running a mod L-Jet system) when I did my engine swap.. the manifold is bigger too from memory well the bit the throttle body bolts up to is. Wonder if the 2.5 manifold bolts up to the 2.0ltr head? the exaust is a bit different, manifold and header pipes.. mine was a single pipe had new one made up stayed with the single cheers Matt edit; my england's gone to sh*t today... meant the manifold and header pipes are different. my exaust from the header pipes back is single 2 1/2".

Quaife = $1900 plus GST 41% lockup ATF = $2830 incl GST 41% lock up BMW Diff from UK landed $600, and looking like I'll get change no GST comming back with friends tea chest total freight cost NZ$45. Have found a few in the States but freight (US domestic) cost are putting the price up so am just looking uk. Would love a quaife but at 1/3 the cost I'll be very happy with the BMW and will send to Graham Clyde to machine and increase pre-load to 40% or just add shims myself. They are out there people and cheap..

not entirely sure but from the description "you can see gears inside" not sure if there should be a shaft/s visible or what.
-
The diffs from the states are not looking to good the guy I've been dealing with has dissapeared.. diffs ex UK are looking good and I have my father in law looking while he's there so condition will be less of a gamble. He's looked at one today but it's incomplete (see post in maintanence) and others over the next few weeks.. will keep everyone posted cheers Matt.

Does any one know if the output flanges/shafts are interchangable with a non LSD. To explain what I mean I have a lsd diff head in london but it's missing the input and output flanges are these unique to the lsd or not? any info greatly appreciated an exploded diagram would be great if anyone has. cheers Matt
