Hey Guys,

I've got an XF 85' S-pak EFi, And shes a bit slugish on the gear change, and its only four speed. I was thinking of putting a T-5 in it and for a while i been looking for an LSD for her, but i heard that is more then its worth to put one of them in, because of the disk brakes. I'm not looking to spend to much cash.

What are the T-5s out of the XFs like?

PEACE
BigJim,

the t5's on xf's are pretty good there is an xf turbo in bendigo vic that runs the t5 and she is nice n strong, the 5 speed is quicker than the 4 as the 5 has lower ratios so it has better acceleration not to sure on LSD's but get a 3.25 and see will go well with the 5 speed

i have a t5 and lsd for sale at the moment if you're interested...i am in vic though, t5 from and XF (got bellhousing to suit) and i have a 2.77 lsd from a fairmont ghia. it's in mine at the moment but it goes bloody hard and is surprisingly quick off the line.
