Engine radiator OEM BMW or KOYORAD
My 95 got an aluminum tank Koyorad last month. These aluminum cylinder heads warp too easily to be messing around with cheaper options.
Pros: prevents cylinder head warping
Vehicle:
Mazda
I have a 2008 e90 335xi FBO with 197k miles and I am still on my original BMW radiator. If the stock original BMW stamped one works well... why experiment?
Pros: excellent longevity, works well
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 317041 km
I put mine in about 6 months ago. Been great!
Pros: great performance
Koyo forever! I've run them on both my is300s and my jz swapped s13
Pros: reliable on multiple cars
Vehicle:
Lexus
Koyorad makes a good radiator, a little expensive but worth it
Pros: good radiator, worth it
Cons: a little expensive
Vehicle:
Infiniti
Super happy with my koyorad. I bought the manual version and kept my trans cooler from when I bypassed the stock one.
Pros: super happy
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
I've had a koyorad in mine for almost 4 years now, zero issues. Granted I've got a manual so the only thing running through mine is coolant.
Pros: zero issues, reliable
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
I had an older BMW myself (E36) and if you want reliability you'll need aftermarket (improved) radiator, radiator hoses and water pump.
Pros: improved reliability
Cons: requires aftermarket parts
Vehicle:
BMW
plastic radiator ends tend to crack and leak on the 4.4's. make sure you get an aluminum upgrade.
Pros: aluminum upgrade
Cons: crack and leak
Vehicle:
BMW
