M5 E34 has as standard 25% LSD as with all other E34: s except the ones bellow.

535i could be had with ASC AND/or 25% LSD

525i M50, 530i/540i M60 could be had with ASC+T or 25% LSD

LSD is very rare on US-version 540i/6, just one has it (a early 540i M Sport) in Canada it's not that rare, but Canada didn't get som many as a total.

Best Stephan

M88/S38 engines never had traction control

it would be too difficult because of the single throttle bodies

M50 etc work with a second throttle valve
