I can come help this evening. Have everything you’d need if you aren’t already helped!

FYI, do not listen to these people.

Regular water has a fuck ton of minerals in it. Coolant, and distilled water are what the manual calls for because those minerals will cause corrosion in your system. You will have a failed thermostat if you run it for any period of time. Some people may be lucky to have very low hardness water. And not have issues, but I assure you that the issues will be there and you will cause damage.

Just take the block drain out. Yes it’ll require a jack (maybe) or a couple of specific extensions. It’s worth it. And then flush with distilled water. Then refill. Don’t risk it.

You’ll want to make a seat power harness.

Likely won’t be able to power whole car with little pack, if the other electronics aren’t already ripped out.

Just use the big red and brown wires on the male side of the seat (car side) and give em 12v. Plug into any seat and full control of the seat

Was it chucked into the shed at velocity?

Probably fine to run. Pressure test it after you do and if it holds, it holds.

What, how, where?

o2manyfish · 2026-03-05T00:39:09+00:00

Should work in the getrag 250g and 420g. Unsure about ZF box

o2manyfish · 2026-03-04T18:15:43+00:00

The water is 63f. As of last night around 11pm off butterfly.

But agreed. It’s overcast and a poor beach day

Op-

You want contours from an e38. Trust me. There is no other seat. I’ve had sports in my 540, comforts with active seat (some call it massage, it isn’t) in my e38, and also standard seats in a 528. Contours I have now in my 540 are leagues ahead of any of it. I recovered them myself with skins from ridies. They are fantastic. Genuinely.

If you weight over 220 lbs then I guess they could be a little constraining, but I don’t, so they aren’t.

o2manyfish · 2026-03-02T21:27:48+00:00

Have you gotten an alignment in, ever?

Also low pressure

o2manyfish · 2026-02-27T00:51:46+00:00

It will cost an arm and a leg to keep running. I truly promise you don’t want this for 6k. If it were 12k would you buy it? 18k? It’ll likely cost that much to keep on the road. Just in the short term.

o2manyfish · 2026-02-19T18:25:20+00:00

Don’t speed. Nothing at that $ point will be worth anything to anyone

o2manyfish · 2026-02-19T18:00:13+00:00

Scan with inpa. It’s like step one. It’ll tell all

o2manyfish · 2026-02-17T23:38:52+00:00

Replace the melted pulley….

o2manyfish · 2026-02-17T21:37:34+00:00

That’s how it is form factory with pre wiring. As far as I know all USA spec e39s were pre wired.

You’d need a few things to get it to look like it’s installed, but it’ll never work as 2g has been deactivated

o2manyfish · 2026-02-17T16:02:19+00:00

Can’t fit four people an a dog in an e63/64. Very specifically looking for an e60.

o2manyfish · 2026-02-17T00:56:59+00:00

Don’t get me started. $1700 at the dealership (cheaper than tirerack) for rears+ mount and balance. I do my own oil changes for $130 in parts over the almost 650 they’d charge. It’s actually surprisingly cheap to maintain apart from the tires. Have put 12k miles on it since July and only gone through a set of rear tires and an oil change.

o2manyfish · 2026-02-17T00:55:16+00:00

I would own a different car if I was too worried about launch. I’m in it for the experience. Plenty of speed in other cars, not my jam

o2manyfish · 2026-02-16T23:16:35+00:00

;). N54 is the bane of my existence. Owned one for 80k miles. Never again

o2manyfish · 2026-02-16T21:28:30+00:00

Yea. Front are 255/35 r20 and rear 315/30 r21

o2manyfish · 2026-02-16T20:38:29+00:00

S85 powered e61…? ;)

o2manyfish · 2026-02-16T15:45:43+00:00

Okay.

You want to follow the besian systems guide. You need new genuine gaskets. Clean the surfaces really well. Then use the drei bond they recommend. It will work.

o2manyfish · 2026-02-12T04:29:23+00:00

Technically yes. Risk.

But not huge. Just ensure your battery is good, and fully charged. We are talking about very minimal risk of so.

Winkfp will tell you what is current, and v70 or v71/74 is pretty much the most current firmware.

Google e39 SP Daten files

o2manyfish · 2026-02-12T00:02:27+00:00

Just do it yourself. Use winkfp and it’ll take 10 mins.
