In the process of replacing my stock open 3.08 final drive to a 3.46 Quaife LSD.

Maybe R-compounds in a year or so.

Concerned with diff whine entering the cabin though. Can tolerate some noise, but minimal is best.
It's known gear whine noise will enter the cabin with either poly or solid diff mounts. Seems to be worth it to some. The LSD will add stress to the diff mounts when you nail the throttle; you may not notice it as much w/o. You have to decide if you can live with a little gear whine.
As for toe arms, either Megan racing or BMW group n bushings in your oem toe arms, which will never wear out.
