Mini Cooper S turbo? be sure to use Good oil, warm it up slow before hitting the gas hard, let it idle for a while to cool the turbocharger gradually after a spirited drive, - Your turbo will thank you. has the speed, but don't be a hero.

Yessir Bro Im soon to join you lol on these good financial decisions lmao but ima do it as a project drift car for my yt channel i wish you luck on this journey bro

what's the plan on fixing\modding the XJR?

Put an S52 in there or get rid of it.

bro just buy m54b30 motor 1k Canadian and manual trans zf 5 speed for 1200 slap it in list it for 6-7k 3k all in 3k profit (cad whatever the exchange rate is for you)

Is that a coyote or a deer? Guess we know who was smoking what 😂😂 So next time just unbolt the ac compressor and there is enough slack to drape the condenser over the fender. No need to open the ac system. Power steering cooler can also lay across the other fender without disconnecting.

There's a guy called "M539 Restoratations" He specializes in restoring BMWs and has a lot of information about torque specs and engine work. I'd recommend checking him out if you are planning to rebuild that engine,

Great car to rebuild.

My guy simply checking the oil before you buy could’ve avoided this

Plugs/ injectors/ thats the place to start. Then could be tune, timing etc

Fresh plugs

Come on bro. Pull the head and get the head resurfaced, replace the valve stem seals, check the block deck, install new head gasket with new bolts! Replace any other parts while there such as water pump, thermostat, hoses, gaskets etc. It's not hard

Transmission. Labor gonna jack you.

Take it from a E46 owner here, if you plan on just replacing the head gasket before you disassemble the engine re-torque the head bolts (this is to check to see if the threads in the block get pulled out since the engine is also aluminum). If the bolts don't get loose tightening them then you are fine with just doing the head gasket, but if they do get loose then the block is no good and just better off replacing the engine. With the M54s in the e46 with the block being aluminum when they overheat the material gets soft and ends up pulling the threads out of the block when you tighten the head bolts. It all depends on how long and how hot the previous owner let the engine get before the head gasket finally failed. Hope this little bit of info helps with your decision

You didn't have to put blown head gasket in the title when talking about a BMW. It's redundant.

please restore it, it will be worth it 100%

All I see is just a BMW making BMW noises. Seems pretty normal to me. All that's missing is the redneck behind the wheel.

How can you be disappointed after buying one of the most unreliable, expensive to fix beamer there is in existence??

Bros the king of yappin, jeez

This me with my 1995 toyota Celica gt. Legit bought it for $550 with my first pay check after spotting it on Craigslist. Legit never drove a trailer before but hooked one up, drove 1 hour to CT, brought it home, couldn’t get it off the trailer so paid 150 bucks to a tow company to yank it off cause it’s got 2 seized brakes, needed a new starter, and had been sitting for 8 year. Just gutted the interior today to do clean up of the mold and get it looking smexy. Do i have the money to insure the car? Nope. But it was worth it.

its probably worth more in parts than that, so you could part it out if its unsalvageable

I had a heavily modified 1998 XJR8. Upper and Underdrive Supercharger pulley, large Intercooler up front, larger faster water pump and a carbon BMC filter and aluminum intake tube. You might be losing power as your intake is sucking in the warm air from the engine…..beautiful car.

More DIY content please! Thanks!

Wow, you make it seem like a breeze.

So many parts brother, not a walk in the park for sure but you make it look so simple. How much will a mechanic shop charge for injector job for this car?
