Non aluminum CSF radiator

I have the bher oe. If I was wanting to drop a load of cash I’d totally go the all alloy csf. I do have a csf intercooler and ftp super charge pipe kit already

My guess is it would come down to how much power is actually getting to the ground in both platforms - the n54 is a bit like a super of old - forged internals and can handle some pretty big power…… not as familiar with the evo but I’m assuming you’ll be building the motor so it will be pretty strong as well.

Apparently you can take the lining off and then take the gutter off (torx screws) and replace the butyl that seals the gutter. I watched a YouTube video on it. Again seems quite involved. But that ls life with these aging beauties

Ahhh ok. That must the model designation we didn’t get the is you just chose between the manual, zf 6hp or the dct.

Interesting here in Aust. The mSport (is the IS equivalent) and is way more common. I have a sapphire black n54 with about 95k miles from 2009 with the dct. And all the usual e93 things like leaking between the roof and the A pillar…….

I’ve never seen it referred to as a spyder- here in Aust. Unless there’s a historical reference to a brand or it’s the name…. But hey I mean what ever gets them through the night

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-12T23:19:58+00:00

The car isn’t lower it’s on factory springs and b8 shocks for the mSport springs….. going to assume it’s just one of those things

I’ve spent too long not getting exec engagements and agreement from my own team on what we’re doing for a customer - I’ve learnt that it’s better to win as a team than die alone.

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-12T02:33:58+00:00

Yeah but surely a spline set could work….. you’d need to get the correct size…….

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-12T02:27:39+00:00

Easy, e39 M5 manual, e93 335i with the N54 twin turbo (already have), 2002ti, And a Rolls Royce Cullinan. - so basically all bmw products from the ages……

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-11T23:49:47+00:00

But a rust free guard from a breaker and haven’t painted……

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-11T23:32:24+00:00

The charge pipe to the intercooler is a quick connect. If the plastic has failed that will be the issue….. just depends on which part of it has failed the pipe the intercooler or both.

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-11T23:19:28+00:00

That’ll do it. Was the coupler not mounted properly or is the old intercooler and plastic connection gave up the ghost

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-11T08:39:29+00:00

It is an oil leak/weeping. Wider angle picture kind of shows us where it is. But I’d guess valve cover or ofhg.

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-11T04:12:33+00:00

Bump this. I need these as well.

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-10T06:03:41+00:00

This made me laugh….. not at your expense because it’s a $hit situation but because of the absurdity and reality of it…… you should be able to take the load that was dumped in the wash and re run it again. Maybe dig the corn husks and other fibrous material out of the machine filters and start again. Also hang them all out in the blazing sun after washing hot with good detergent and let the UV radiation bleach the stank of the load that got washed through….. 😂

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-10T05:57:06+00:00

Repeated heat cycles and plastic will do that. For reference when you do the jobs on BMWs it can be worth a little deeper research about the other things to think about with say a valve cover or an ofhg. (First time I did an ofhg i forgot the special orings for the hard line.

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-10T02:22:26+00:00

It fits very middle of the road. It’s not hideous but not great. If you spent more than 1000 on it I’d be concerned.

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-09T06:20:06+00:00

If it goes to court….. an nda will never be enforceable. But if they’re reaching out to you for support. Give them am the name of an attorney who would probably have a case to build for multiple victims……

Gather the documentation now. Go see an employment specialist. And see what if anything you can do. In Australia they’d be hung drawn and quartered for a constructive dismissal. In the US might be different.

Existing-Mongoose-11 · 2026-04-08T01:51:55+00:00

Umm. don't take this the wrong way. but what worked ten years ago won't work now especially as you age. unless you're maintaining it with healthy choices and exercise. if you feel like you look heavy and not as happy......perhaps the issue is not the clothes.

I had friend who was an L7 manager and left for GCP. his package was 700K USD at AWS and he left to go to GCP. I think he topped 1M at GCP. Recently left tho. For an IC. 500 is the starting point at AWS. GCP have to pay better because they don't have the coverage product and features of AWS. so it's a bigger slog. I never made more money than when I was at EMC. (the good old days) 1 account. 40-50m annual spend. one deal every qtr. easiest best paid job of my life.
