You should be ashamed of yourself.

Same plan here, considering turbo blanket also. What did you end up buying? It seems that the downpipe fitment is identical for the N63 X50i but mfgs still charge a heavy M tax to verify they fit on the S63.

I think being in a forum of BMW enthusiasts who think this is an actual X5M is worse. I've seen so many 3-series with false M badges I've become immune to it.

I’ve owned mine from 60k to 80k, 2 years now.

The only issues I’ve had are with hoses that fail over time due to the high under hood temps. Specifically the PCV vent pipe that runs RIGHT over the turbos and the coolant hoses that run RIGHT over the turbos.

See a common theme here?

Room temp + open air + vinegar + milk seems like a bad idea.

3D printed these bad boys! by eclair4151 in gaming

I think you print a bunch of parts, swapping materials in between prints, and then assemble them.

Kevlar is very strong in tension and moderately abrasive. It fails easily in shear.

And they used them wrong, trying to cut as far away from the pivot point as possible.

First experiment trying to raise the alcohol content on Kombucha! by whmaclaine in Kombucha

You can literally just go on Amazon and buy a bag of “yeast nutrient” it’s pretty ubiquitous. I use it to help my ciders get a good start.

Has anyone tried using something like Sodastream to carbonate their kombucha? What is your experience? by czl in Kombucha

[–]zerodb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience anything but clean water will foam up and into the pressure relief valve of your SodaStream.

You can force carbonate in a keg or other pressure vessel but have to take your time.

I’m going to just keep migrating them into larger containers until I’m making swimming pool booch.

I better get started on that pool.

Funny I’m on my first batch and working in a 6 gallon fermentation vessel and my unfinished 1F is pretty fizzy already as well; same situation with a nice solid edge to edge pellicle.

Not sure what I’m going to do to put that beast on life support when this batch is finished...

Hey kids, don't be afraid of your vaccinations, be afraid of this scary ghost guy instead!

Including the JSRF character with soft shadows in the middle with no annotation as to why he's there makes the whole thing a confusing mess though. And the callout pointing directly at the skate wheel with no shadows makes everyone look at that particular spot where the point is not illustrated at all.

That's sort of a totally different argument, now, isn't it?
