lsd + diff gears

[Dti-dan]

Hey all
i have picked up a lsd with a few kms on it. we are going to rebild it. what ratio diff gears should we put in it? its for a 175kw 4sp. currently with factory 3.08 single spinner. i would like to make it a little bit more toey but not sacrifice to much high way cruzing rpm

i replaced my 3.08 for 3.46, its allright i guess, 3.7's may be the go if you only do a long trip once ore twice a year,


100km/h is roughly 1,900rpm

i'd go 3.46 with the 4 speed. the higher ratio should actually improve econ in city driving just not on high way so depends on your driving habits.

go straight to 3.7 mate, best ratio for balance of highway and town driving

[calem123]

What would you recommend for a SV6 5sp Auto, taking note there won't be much highway driving.

3.46 or 3.7's?

[Dti-dan]

what sort of rpm at 100kms would 3.7's do
