E36 Diff Ratios. This bracket makes it possible to bol. Ie a 287 1 will be a fraction of just under 3 revolutions of the pinion to one revolution of the axle.
The euro m3 used a 210mm ring gear which has been proven to be stronger than the standard us m3 differential. They re able to get away with using such a high ratio since they have an 8000 rpm rev limit. Data may not be 100 accurate.
