M-Factory LSD for E85/E86

fearless · Post by **fearless** » Sun Jul 14, 2019 10:03 am

M-Factory Limited slip differential fitted with a 3.07 ring gear and in a 188k housing. So should bolt directly into most E85/E86/E46.

This thing transforms a Z4, they really should have been fitted at the factory. The M-factory diff is impressive, equal in quality to a Quaiffe, and has been faultless in my ownership.

Originally supplied by Grinspeed, the UK M-factory dealer, they are about £900 new for the unit, before you get it fitted into a housing.

This is ready to go, you could bolt it in on your drive in 3hrs or so.

Difficult to photo a diff, but I’m more than willing to crack off the rear cover for interested parties to inspect it if they want.

Absolute bargain. I had one fitted to mine and it made the car. This should sell in no time

LSD has covered about 40k miles, Faultlessly. The casing has a total mileage of about 100k. The LSD is helical, like a Quaife, so no clutch packs to wear out.

Is this pick-up only, or could it be courriered?

Just to throw it out there fitting an lsd to my old si coupe was one of the best mods I did - much better grip, more transparent at or past the limit and a right hoot on snow days

I got a right bollocking from the work security manager for getting in early and drifting the business park one way system in the snow last Feb

So yes in summary highly recommend this mod to anyone on the fence about it - works seamlessly with the cars dtc, and really tangibly improves the drive!

Preferred pick up, but could be posted at £30 as it weighs about 35kg.

Hi, would you be interested in swapping it for an Aero bumper?

Thanks. I can afford £500 (delivered) if that's of interest to you. I fully understand if you'd rather hold out for more.

Is this better than the diff supplied in the M from the factory?

A kind offer, thank you. I’m going to hold out for the asking price for a while, but will let you know if I reconsider.
