Passion Auto France is proud to announce that it can now offer Limited Slip Differentials for the classic BMW E21 and the iconic BMW 2002 range.
The LSDs are made exclusively for PAF by leading transmission specialists 3J Driveline and are available in a number of versions. The following ramp angles are available: 45/45,
40/90, 30/90, 50/90 and 30/60 and preload can be set from 0 to 150lbs/ft according to customer specification.
The PAF 3J NXG differentials for BMW E21/2002 are certainly the most solid and progressive on the market. Thanks to the precision cutting of the gears the noises generally associated with LSD have been eliminated; furthermore the plate pack, which always runs on a minimum of 8 active surfaces, gives maximum surface to surface area contact during use.
The PAF 3J NXG differential will fit into most E21 housings and use the factory half shafts without modification. The only exception is the very early E21 which used 2002 style half shaft flanges. These early E21s and the 2002 will require adaptor flanges which PAF can also supply. They will also need a minor modification to the original diff casing which can be carried out by the customer (full instructions and template supplied) or by PAF for mail order customers. PAF can also recondition the components in the original diff whilst fitting the LSD to renew the bearings and seals and deliver the assembled diff. ready to install on your car. PAF can arrange collection and return of differentials. Please enquire for prices from/to your country
All differentials are upgraded on an individual basis allowing custom specifications to be incorporated. e.g. it is possible to build custom differential with pre-load tolerance of
1-2lb/ft.
Differential kits retail at £1050 inc VAT and a pair of adaptor flanges retail at £385 inc VAT. Replacing bearings & seals, diff housing modification for ealy E21 and 2002, LSD kit installation in housing and set-up are available at extra cost. Carriage prices vary according to country.

For almost 50 years, the legendary Weber 32/36 DGV has been delivering the perfect combination of power and economy thanks to the progressive opening of its twin throttle plates.

However, for racing use the additional
low range power released by opening both throttles at the same time – known as synchronous operation – can be
hugely beneficial.

Webcon already manufactures a Sync Link Kit to allow a Weber DGV or DGAV to be converted from progressive to synchronous opening but is now offering brand new, authentic Weber carburettors ready-converted for race use.

The conversion, which has been expertly carried out by Webcon engineers, entails fitting the superb quality, UK manufactured male and female link levers plus the all-important twin pump jet.

The ready-to-fit conversion comes complete with Webcon’s newly introduced base insulator block as shown.

Part number 2268000500S retails at £259.00 plus VAT.

Effective heat insulation is essential with any downdraft carburettor installation.

If heat is allowed to rise through the manifold and reach the carburettor, it is likely that heat soak will occur, which will lead to poor hot starting.

Webcon is therefore delighted to announce the introduction of its own range of carburettor heat insulators.

Superbly produced, using the latest laser cutting technology to ensure outstanding levels of accuracy, the new range is manufactured entirely in the UK and is available for the following models of Weber carburettor:

When it was introduced the BMW E30 Three Series was praised for its handling. A lot has changed in the field of suspension technology since the early ninties when the E30 was finally phased out; today a GAZ GHA suspension kit can not only improve on the original handling but also offer height and damper rate adjustability.

The kit has been designed specifically with road use in mind with suitable spring and damping rates – although it is also suitable for track day use. The kit is ideal for vehicles that have been subject to power upgrades, as many E30s have.

GAZ damper units allow damping adjustment whilst on the vehicle by means of easily accessible adjuster knobs/top adjusters.

Shortened body and stroke lengths allow a -25 to -55mm ride height variation with a coarse acme form thread provided for easy adjustment.

Each unit is plated in either Classic Black Zinc to minimise corrosion and to ensure that the height adjusters will go on working for many years to come.

All units are individually tested before leaving the factory and are covered by a two year warranty.

GAZ GHA Coilover Kit for the BMW E30 3 Series 1982 to ‘91. GHA388 RRP: £717.01 plus. VAT.
This kit requires donor front units.
