Build journal: special series
Rattles that bite.
The S54 is a flawed Ironman, with potentially catastrophic internal failure points.
It introduced M owners to rod bearings nightmares and the joy of VANOS rattling the S54 into probable implosion.
Fortunately, it can be permanently fixed.
In this Special Series, I document the bulletproofing of my S54 with a slight detour in internal performance upgrades: let's cam it!
Enjoy,

Beisan Systems
A family legacy
Beisan was founded by Rajaie, he emigrated to America from Kuwait in the 70s along with his entire family.
He picked the name "Beisan" in honour of his mother who passed in 2005 - it was the name of the village she came from in the Middle East.
Rajaie passed in 2022 in part due to COVID19. His legacy lives on with Beisan and his family.
Lama - Rajaie's sister, continues the legacy and looks upwards: developing new parts for new BMW M applications.
