Oh my fuck.

I just shit a brick.

[george graves]

Doh!



Actually - I think there was an early alpina car and a later one that used position 3.

[VacMan]

You know the 333i block is actually stamped 3,5 , not 3,3 don't you?

333i guff here:

Note how fucken awesome it looks on 16" alpina's and '86 M-tec I skirts.

And one for sale:

Also, in the pdf linked from M5board it says the original 333i used an electric fan.

[Doughnut]

hey guys, I have an electric fan. Here's what I think:
-It looks shitty
-It's not original
-It's probably going to fail

Here's what I wish:
-I would have compromised the integrity of my subframe
-Added drag to my engine
-Trimmed an original fan to work less efficiently

Any advice?

lol :D

You're looking at it the wrong way. It's my stubborness that will make the car. You'll see...

^ yep, aux fan will fail sooner than usual if you use it on full speed at all times and they are LOUD, mine is on at 1/2 speed when I am sitting at red lights.
The later model aux fans have different blades and I believe are quiter as well.

Can't wait to replace it with my spal fan :)

ITT I consume your persona and soul :giggle:

I'm sure that's a good idea in LA, where there is no traffic or abnormally high temperatures of any sort.

Obvious sarcasm in my post, I have a spal in the garage waiting for summer!

[george graves]

Yea. My M30 is fine - but the second I'm in trafic behind someone, I need that fan on pronto. (other wise it's off unless I'm at a really long light....I guess I really need to do that electrical switch thing hun...)

[Wh33lhop]

Screw all this fan business, like it was said before don't run one, I dont with my M30 and its never gone over half temp. :)

Why does this always happen on this forum? All I wanted was answers not criticisms. You do your shit your way I'll do mine my way.

May I suggest you quit asking about how to do it " your way " and figure it out on your own then.

Folks here tell you how to make it work every time you post up and you don't listen, you would rather it look a certain way than have a safe and drivable car. Idiotic.

no fan can work too.

Don't go this route. I'm there right now with my M50 car, I somehow burned out my blower motor and AUX fan from using the AUX fan all the time and running the heater on full blast, and I'm on the lookout for a 16" SPAL.
