Afternoon all,

So after buying Wilksd Z4 3.0si I’m looking at my options for repairing/changing the noisey rear diff.

My thoughts,
1 replace like for like with same E85 3.0si manual 3.23 ratio diff, quite a few on eBay so most sensible option.
2 change for a E86 3.0si manual rear diff to improve acceleration as believe this is a 3.46.
3 fit LSD assume will ideally need a working diff before doing this? Have contacted Birds and they want 2.5K for Quaife! Don’t want to spend this much.

Any help advice really appreciated.
 
Straight swap. I should clarify the 3.73 must be from a roadster auto, coupes with auto came with a 3.64 iirc.
