Hey guys i was wondering if anyone can help me out,
ive got a series 3 forte non IRS and have some suspect noises from the rear of the car,my local mec replaced a rear right bearing that didnt fix the problem,he said its definatly internal diff and will need a full set of diff bearings apx $1000 fitted, i figured for that much i could get a LSD... how much would i be looking at to have a LSD fitted and where the hell do i source one?? im based newcastle NSW any info or recommended workshops ect would be greatly apreciated!

wrecking yard from a HP XR6. it'll change your gear ratio thought to 3.45 which will effect your speedo. try and find one that has low Km.

$1000 is a bit rich. I had mine done for around the $500 mark.
But if ya want a LSD an XR6 HP is ya best bet like Day-mow said.
