Are there specific DPs for N54 Z4s?
Can I pick up any N54 DP for my 35i? I couldn't find anything concrete on if I could. Some vendors have Z4 specific page listings, while others just say N54. I 'think' I saw something about the exhaust not lining up perfectly?
Thanks in advance |

I have these as well.
I changed one of the bolts in the engine mount to a shorter head hex bolt to get just a bit more clearance. |

I also have the VRSF. Quality seems quite good, especially for the price. Fitting is tight, but this is true of all the DP's on the Z4 as I understand it. I've had them for about 2k miles and report no issues to date.

How long of a DIY job is it to install DPs? I'd like to get them but I'd need to be able to swap the cats back in a reasonable amount of time when my smog check is due if I do... If it takes too long it might be worth the extra expense of getting catted DPs instead.

Hard to estimate someone else's DIY skills of course.
After the first time doing it, I can get mine swapped now in about 1.5 hours I guess. Those dang v clamps are the slow bit when putting it back together and the O2 sensors are annoying. |

Do you have to swap them if you run a DP fix?

Well the bottom is covered, and the top, the motor is slanted, and there is a heat shield.

Guys. I mentioned this in a previous thred. The 335i downpipes fit the z4. All you need to do is get any exhaust shop to cut the flanges of your car exhaust and rotate them a little to fit the downpipes.
