Hi, quick question. I'm looking at buying an LSD for my car and a tempting offer has come up. A 4:10 LSD out of an ix model - These have a viscous coupling instead of the regular setup.

I'm not sure how this compares to the regular limited slips found in E30's. Is this a worthwhile swap?

Anyone ever done this before?

normal LSD >> viscous.

It's not a difficult swap

Done, got lucky - went to the wrecker instead and ended up with a 3:91 instead out of an 89 ix. The big diff weighs more than I thought. Anyway, if all goes well it goes in tomorrow.
