    Default LSD Diff with gears?????

    Has anyone here got a vz v6( obviously will be a fair few) , that has put and lsd diff in. As well as say 3.55"s or 3.7's?
    Ive got a vz 6 speed manual ute, with 2.87.1 gears in it (towing diff), was thinking of chucking a lsd with diffrent gears in.
    Is it worth it?????

    I have spoken to alot of diff mechanics. They have all told me I will be happier with 3.9 as I have a manual and 18inch wheels. I suppose the fuel will go up a little but no where near a V8. It will launch from 0-100km quick and thats what it is about. bugger top end unless you want to loose your licence

    excellent, i found a diff
    LSD with 3.9's or i can get 3.7's in. Just gota decide if its really wat i wanna do.
    With regards to the 5 speed thing, i reckon it would be worth the power anyways
