BMW has always been a great car but lacks certain components to be truly Ultimate. One being the proverbial oil pressure gauge. To help resolve this dilemma, one has to resort to the aftermarket like VDO, Autometer, AEM, etc. to source such a gauge. You can make your selection based on size, face back light, digital or analog, and electronic or mechanical. Regardless of your selection, you have to tap into the oil artery to monitor the engine oil pressure.

The Active Autowerke ODB, Oil Distribution Block was created just to solve this problem.

- With a 12x1.50mm pitch, it mounts in the original position of the factory oil pressure switch, eliminating the need to drill or tap.
- Retains the factory oil pressure switch to still satisfy the oil warning light in the instrument cluster.
- Has a dedicated port to install an additional electric oil pressure sender or fitting to connect a mechanical oil pressure feed.
- Can be used by turbochargers or superchargers requiring an oil feed source

Design feature of the Active Autowerke ODB
- Has to be small and compact. One could drill and tap a block of aluminum to do the task, but... The ODB is the smallest 2 part ODB on the market currently for BMW application today
- With a 2 part unit, the rotating design allows for a FULL 360 degree rotation. This allows the sender (regardless of size) to rotate as it fits against the oil filter housing without any interference
- Engine bay picture shows a BMW E9x M3 S65 V8 with oil pressure sender installed using a ODB-KIT. Look at the space constraints. A small size and flexible 360 degree rotation comes in very handy.
- CNC machining allows multiple wrench placements to ensure a secure torque
- 12mm x 1.50mm pitch makes the installation factory like for most BMWs
- 1/8-27NPT suitable for most aftermarket senders currently produced
- Complete with (2) crush rings for a seamless installation

NOTE: Factory oil pressure sender and / or VDO oil pressure sender NOT INCLUDED with ODB-KIT .

NEW, updated design allowing for more applications!

The Oil Cooler Fitting kit allows greater flexibility in the routing of oil cooler lines. Standard oil coolers utilize “hard lines” which can cause fitment issues for cars with superchargers, Accusumps, or other aftermarket performance parts. This kit replaces the oil cooler hard lines with two engineered -10 AN fittings, mounting bracket, and O-rings. Flexible braided hoses can then be run to the oil cooler which eliminates routing issues from supercharges, intakes, and other components. The brackets are CNC machined stainless steel and the -10 AN fittings are lightweight aluminum.

THIS NEW REVISED Kit fits E36 Euro oil filter housing, E36 Euro oil cooler, E46 M3 stock oil filter housing, E46 M3 stock oil cooler, and works great with aftermarket oil coolers.

An Oil Pan Baffle is an essential upgrade for a high power and / or tracked vehicle.
These baffle are designed to keep oil surrounding the oil pick-up tube at all times, so preventing oil starvation of the engine under hard cornering and acceleration loads.
This part is VITAL as a significant loss of oil pressure will lead to catastrophic engine failure.
Images and price shown here is for the V8 S65 engine, but we offer baffles for most BMW engines, please cal or

This Remote Oil Sensor Manifold is designed to facilitate the installation of Oil Pressure or Temp sensor/s.

Originally designed so that the S14 owner can send oil to this manifold, install an aftermarket gauge and still maintain the OEM "emergency oil pressure" dummy light- it had become popular as a quasi-universal item.

Popular on cars that read artificially higher oil temps at the sensor due to the location of the exhaust manifolds or other issues.

•(1) 1/8 NPT Inlet
•(2) Sensor holes: 1/8 NPT + 12x1.5 Metric

This manifold is designed for easy installation with two mounting holes to sheet metal.

Notes:
•Sensors and fittings are sold separately.
•(Due to the fact oil doesn't flow through this type of manifold, Oil temp is not a recommended use for this piece, pressure is ideal).

With a lowered E30, there is the constant risk of scraping the oil pan on speed bumps, driveways, or other road debris. Replacing a damaged oil pan is expensive, and the sudden loss of oil from a broken pan means nearly instant engine destruction.

The UUC E30 skid plate is available for these 1984-1992 E30 3-series models:
- 325i, 325iS, 325, 325e, 325eS
- NOT for 325iX

Features
- Stainless steel in a nearly bulletproof 10-gauge thickness gives true armor protection.
- Oil drain plug cover. No hole leaving the vulnerable oil drain plug exposed.
- All hardware included. Grade 10 or 8.8 in the various locations meets or exceeds BMW specification for strength. - - Self-locking flange head hardware will not come loose.
- Precision construction with slotted mounting holes. While every one of our skid plates is identical, that's not necessarily true for all E30s. Due to over 25 years' worth of use, some E30s may have their front radiator support in a position slightly different than when new... and the slotted holes in the UUC skid plate accommodate those variations.
- Quality materials. The entire assembly is constructed in the USA of premium stainless steel alloy and plated hardware for a lifetime of use
- Extended front mounting lip. The extra couple of inches at the front of the UUC skid plate help box in the radiator air inlet area for improving cooling efficiency.
- Integrated threaded holes. Welded-on hardware means no fumbling around with loose nuts during installation.
- LEGAL FOR SpecE30 RACING.
- 100% MADE IN USA
