Our diff clutch plates the same as E46 M3?

[Vanne]

Hi, ordering new clutch plates for our 210mm diff. Will any clutch plates fit with 210mm? Are ours the same as the E46 M3? The plates I mean, I know there are some other slight differences between them, but I wanna know if the clutch plates fit.

Thanks Brads, Ive ordered a race set for e46 M3. should be a straight fit drop in. 7 vented friction discs and 8 steel plates. Hoping for a vast improvement in traction AND handling, mine had a few kms on it, probably not as good as it once was.

We all like a tight rear end Vannes....!

Upgrading your diff will make a *huge* difference - I have an 8 plate gripper diff in mine now and whilst its noisy at low cornering speeds, it is superb on track and when you are above 30mph - changes the feel of the whole car for the better. I'm thinking a bit of oil additive (molybdenum or similar) will help with low speed clunking.

Keep us updated!
