drifty325i 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2006 yep thats right, is there any cheap way of getting more horse power and easily? Manual is the best thing you can do. Or a diff change, you prob have a 3.23 ratio. A 3.63 or 3.73 will help. or a 3.91 imo. Anything else on a standard m20 (chips,exhaust,filter) dont do bugger all Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well mine came with a 3.63, my mates auto had a 3.23. Late model f/l e30s have 3.91 some times Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30stz 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2006 (edited) yeah, quite a few E30 diffs I would imagine would differ from factory as they're probably been round the block a few too many times and have needed reconditioning or replacement maybe, hence you get a few odd ones out.

Mine came factory with the 3.63, i think BMW just change them depending on the year etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
