Thanks for test and pic - very useful.

Diff will be on eBay shortly hence wanting to ensure it's listed correctly

Btw, an e12 based e24 lsd has just sold for over £400 in eBay - is this the going rate or is that a rare item?

the E12 LSD diff is a rare item.

Isn't your diff noisy which is why you swapped it out? Didn't you mention passing it my way for experimental purposes?

cheers

Rare item. I'd not say that was particularly dear.

I didn't think it would be, but I was expecting you to bring it along to a meet later on in the year...?

If you are in a rush stick it on e-bay, but if you know how much you want for it let me know.

cheers
