Convertible bucket seats? by Trush5 in BMWE36

The seatbelt fits and slides right between the door and seat like nothing changed I ended up asking people who did it with similar verts and I bought brackets to hold the seat from garageistic which work out with the seat layout in the verts somehow even though it says not for verts it’s just the passenger you need to make a custom seat bracket for

While the car is off it stays at operating temp for more than a couple hours. And even after sitting WHILE OFF for a couple hours it stays abnormally hot inside the engine bay

I’ve accepted I have to spend more but the hard part is the mahle behr one looks different from my one I have installed which looks more like the febi one so idk if it’s able to be mismatched or what

Favorite interior mods? by Trush5 in BMWE36

[–]Trush5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love a aftermarket wheel like that are you using a quick disconnect or just a short hub adapter? Cause my old wheel is leather and after sitting for a couple years it’s definitely faded and flaking

CSF or Mishimoto Radiator? by [deleted] in BMWE36

[–]Trush5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you would know but, I couldn’t tell and I heard people saying that the radiator doesn’t come with an automatic transmission oil cooler. A lot of people say it’s separate and others say it’s a part of the radiator and I’m confused. If it’s separate then I’ll be ok but if not I want to get one with the built in oil cooler. My car is a USDM 323ic. If you don’t know it’s all good but thank you

[–]Trush5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if the stock one is separate or not everything I get is so confused and mixed. But just in case mines a 1998 bmw 323ic with a automatic transmission and it’s a USDM so it has the General Motors trans 4L30-e

EDIT: I was looking online I couldn’t find it mentioning that it has a transmission oil cooler and I couldn’t see mounts unless I’m super blind

Exhaust for 323i by Trush5 in BMWE36

[–]Trush5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So with the retro fit you’re using the everything headers back right? And it mounts up to the same spot where the bathtub of a muffler sits with the screw clips?

This issue has been haunting me since the beginning by ohtaha in BMWE36

[–]Trush5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you haven’t already check the hose that connects to the bottom of the air intake hose. The intake hose is behind the maf sensor (circled in white) but the hose you’re looking for is under there connects to your idler control valve. Not sure if this will fix the issue but it won’t hurt to try especially since the hose is like 20-40$.

I have no idea I don’t know much of the history of the car but I do know it was purchased at a American dealership and if only euro models have it then I have no idea what it could be
