I'm not a bmw guy, I am a model A fan. But I look forward to a wed episode of the E36. It's nice to step back from a heavy fab project back to more basic bolt-on restoration style project to clear the mind.
umm ya! any decent guy would always be a model A fan!
Anytime I hear others mention their stash of parts that have not yet been used it makes me feel waaaaay less bad about my stack of parts 😂 All your projects motivate me to work on mine, so maybe I will touch that pile this weekend.
Oh same. I have parts for cars I sold 5-10 years ago
@@kennethgamble5498 I am saving some parts like that for "future projects" for when I have space and funds to get another 😂
Took me like 10 seconds after looking at the title and wondering are you actually on episode 36 of season 54 of this project before it hit me...
I very rarely comment on anything but been watching your channel for some time now, enjoying your style and enthusiasm, keep it up! :)
“Because I’m not a degenerate” 🤣🤣🤣 so awesome
By now we don't care about what car you work on. We just love listening to you😊
From Sweden with ❤
I watch/listen to a lot of youtube car channels. Yours us the only one that makes me want to go out and turn wrenches. I have some seats and brakes waiting to go in my S6 as well as finishing up my stereo. Then I bought back my last 944 which needs a lot of work. It wasn't neglected but it wasn't babied
She's coming together nicely man.
The brake calipers would look sweet blacked out with the M logo painted in.
First wheels that came to my mind were AC Schnitzer type 1 but then i saw someone commenting on 3pc type 2's and all that and figured it can't be so simple 😅
Really cool E36, it’s looking great! My kind of build, but that’s why we the Internet visit this channel. Happy holidays!
Yellow wide body Rarri’s are cool and all, but you ever drive the ultimate driving machine?
Lol. Remember the release video for the StanceWorks coils back in the day man, such a vibe.
Angel eyes were all the craze then, lol.
Back again for Khalil’s face ❤️
As much as I like the Ferrari build I’m a BMW guy and this content makes me happy. Great work can’t wait for the next
Mike, you need a ultrasonic cleaner for your hardware!! Get a cheap on off ebay, it does wonders when cleaning carbs.
Missed the initial drop of the video (was in a cabin with no internet all weekend) but the content was worth the wait.
Keep working on whatever keeps you engaged and going man! So what if it's not the Ferrari. Keeping that spark alive is what's important.
My man really just roasted my angel eyes and clear corners! To each their own, I'm sure 15 years from now I'll probably have the same opinion about them 🤔
As a fellow S54 E36 M3 owner, I’ve been waiting to see more of this build. I remember watching your initial video debuting it.
Haha, who doesn't have a stash of parts they've been hoarding for their project! I really like the colour of the BMW, looks really sharp
Please refresh our memory with the s54 swap stuff you figured out. If I remember correctly you were one of the first to do an s54 swap on an e36.
After a full rebuild on my s50 on first start up my throttle cable stuck wide open and skipped timing (upgraded hydraulic chain tensioner) which blew the engine. I'm considering an s54 swap but I need to love the engine first before I commit to it.
It is one of the first s54 swaps for sure. The only downside is the swap information is so radically different these days. Mine is antiquated. It’s just an e46 underneath, versus having EWS3 and all that stuff flashed out. Back then the simplified tunes and such weren’t possible
Man that suspension is pretty. I wish my budget would allow me to run H&Rs on all my cars.
The ZKW's clean really good and look almost like new. They are designed well (better then the rest of OE headlights) and don't brake inside nearly as often as Bosch or Hella. Plus, they don't burn the reflectors like the non-projector headlights do.
Personally, I would clean them and store them.
I bought a set of stanceworks coilovers from you guys 😎 not many of them made it to Europe.
Oh and max max super max 🙌
I sincerely hope you are planning to rebuild and paint those rear calipers when the parking brake arrives Mike. It gave me the creeps to see you bolt those uglies on there! You should pick up a cheap ultrasonic cleaner for the shop. They work great for old nuts and bolts. Love the content!
I still to this day watch the video you released of the E36 a decade ago. Its one of the best sounding S54s I've ever heard. I have waited years to see this car back in action so I am very excited you are getting it wrapped up. Cant wait to hear it again.
Got love for all work you do. E36 coming along sick. Love watching and finding out what you install from your stocking piling. Can't wait for next episode. 😁👍👍
Keep enjoying your work and vlogs and we'll follow. Cheers Mike !
Can't wait to see these wheels!!!! love the the E36 build, cant wait to hear that s54 fire up again.
Paint those breaks everything else is way to clean to leave the break calipers looking crusty !!!! I love these simple builds it’s more realistic for us simple folks
I subscribed to your channel for the 308 series but the content you make is amazing. I love watching you work and every project you've shown so far has been very interesting. You're an inspiration for me. If you keep posting, I'll keep watching. Keep up the great work!
Love this! more content :) Cheers from Norway (Old lurking fan)
There’s an m3 parked by my school that has an m-rain interior in great condition, along with it being a manual. It’s a silver sedan and it just sits and makes me super sad to drive past it everyday and know it isn’t getting the love it deserves. Glad to see you’re taking care of yours! All cars deserve great owners.
Leave a note on the car! Ask if they’d consider getting rid of it
great episode
love your content and style of shooting dude!! I always get excited when I get a stanceworks TH-cam notifications. Keep up the good work👍🏼
Yess!!! Ambercorners
Trying to get out of your own head is the hardest sometimes, but it always helps starting the day off with StanceWorks. Mike, thank you for being you 🤙
There are 2 rims I’m in love with for the e36 M3, either the OEM as they came with or.. the good ol’ 3 piece BBS RS, for me the one best rim ever made. So now to the build (s), I frankly do not care, whether it’s the Model A, the 308 GTK or the e36, or for that matter a Smurf Mobil ….. I love your content, and that’s what matters to me, I learn so much from you wrenching! Period, keep rocking!
Incredible detail on the suspension . Can’t wait to see the wheel tire ‘combo .
e36 love!! great video!
loving the e36. Mine is in need of a lot of work. This is giving me motivation.
Hell yes bro. An with the content don't worry about rushing anything you do. Do you an be you an the people will see You. Keep it up.
Ahhh the Angel Eyes. I remember seeing Dado's yellow m3 and the Mischief 3000 vids back in the day. I don't remember if he ran them or not but the headlights remind me of those days. Like you said they were the rage for a minute.
Love this build 🔥🔥
My favorite tool for cleaning small parts is an ultrasonic cleaner. Does a phenomenal job!
Great great video and content!!
Love the oem plus
Have to admit I've enjoyed the change is seeing the BMW.... Keep doing what you're doing.. it works well 👍
Watching this video personally gave me a nostalgia I didn’t think I could get I did my entire subframe in 2 weeks due to not planning what parts I needed before hand but I did literally the same exact thing and wow this was a good watch and amazing content
Thats such a special coilover kit with som hairy spring rates! Would be really interesting to see what you think about them on the track! Thanks and keep up the good work!!
awesome!! that E36 looks great man
Good stuff, but I would really like to see the calipers cleaned and detailed.
Me too.
Man I have been waiting on new E36 content forever haha. I can’t wait to see the the beauty rolling shots of this
E36 content is always enjoyable Mike! Can't wait to hear the S54 scream again, one of my fondest memories is when we met and went and had lunch and I got to ride shotgun in this. I was but a child then aha
awesome keep the good work going !!!
Good content all the way around no matter what you’re working on! Keep up the great work sir!!
This is my dream build. E36 m3 coupe s54 swap with ITB's. Dope ride bro! I'm definitely jelly
The content I’ve been waiting for.
3.91 in my M50 drift car is quick but it makes me wonder how quick it is paired with an S54. Loving this content
Love your fab and assy videos. You are honest in your work, saying how and why you are doing things. I just wonder how you can have all of this ( shop, tools and cars) financially speaking. I cant imagine you having no day job. I'm jealous but I am sure you work hard for all you have.
I just got my e36 M3 on the road for the first time in almost 2 years. Can't wait to see yours on the road too
Lovely
Sick stuff man! Kinda jealous of all the new parts your using while I try to refresh most of the old parts of my miata 😂 greetings from the Netherlands 🤙🏼
Ambers look fire
Joined originally with the Ferrari build, but really happy to see some e36 content.
Try doing that gas tank by yourself with the car on jackstands and then talk to me lol - use new 12.9 cap screws on the axles and buy the $50 axle puller/installer set. You’ll thank me later when those gkn axles break. I did the whole e46 330 setup on the rear instead of the e36 m3 cause brakes are plenty bigger, you get the bigger bearings and the trailing arms are easy to get. Works out good. Parking brakes work fine with e36 cables with slight mods to the clips. Another thing is you may find that those offset control arm bushings are too much. They are fine for non M arms but the M arms have the increased caster built in and use centered bushings. If you are using 96+ m3 arms and you find the wheel is way far forward, that’s why.
this car is an icon
I've always really admired Mike and everything he's done over the years, but when he's said "I'm not a degenerate so I'm running ambers" he became a life long hero.
Clears were OEM in some markets 😋
dad
I really hope your fender liners are pristine - I've had more than one set come in ripped up due to having been folded up too small. Also, boy do I wish you could get glass lenses on an FR-S.
Really intrigued in the diff as I also have a e46 6 speed
10:15 I can confirm. Halo headlights were cool 15 years ago
Don’t forget the rear shock mount reinforcements! Dampers with a lot of rebound damping will cause the body to crack.
more content is good content, here to watch it all :)
I used to skip your stuff if it wasn’t Ferrari content, but you’ve won me over in the last few weeks. Good stuff all around, and I’ll be watching no matter what you’re wrenching on. A heavily patina’d 60’s 911 with a hotrodded engine and scraping the ground would be really interesting to watch you bring to life…. just throwing that out there 😬
Thanks for sticking around!
the BMW is looking nice, Mike! Can you give a rundown on what's left to do a 1st start on the 308?
Thumbs up as always. :)
She's looking beautiful mate 👌
Oh my god you are such a wheel tease!
You need to visit the Nürburgring. Not as much to drive as to hang in the car park for a few days, checking out insane track E36's
Love the build Mike, makes me want to become a BMW guy. Only thing I request.... I can appreciate the mild brake upgrade... But at least have them blasted and coated black to do the rest of the car justice.
Depo lights? HA ha ha ha, this amuses me just cos the guy who makes M539 Restorations absolutely hates Depo lights. I mean each to their own and all that but this just made me chuckle Loving how the E36 is coming together and some nice restomods going into this build to modernise it a bit.
I second a cheap ultrasonic cleaner as it can get really good results with the right cleaning agent 😉
I love e36 so wish I still had mine
The 3.91 should work perfect with the 6 speed. My former employer had that on his M3 touring ;) So funny how different this car is to my (323ti) former car. The whole rear end is completely different. If you ever have the opportunity to drive one, check it out. For my likings the best chassis on the E36. I stumbled upon it a while ago, while searching a car for my ex. She had a 316 compact, while she was on university. After graduating she wanted some bigger car and choose the 323ti (in my experience, women love hatchbacks). So I looked here in Switzerland, yo find mainly better serviced and better equipped cars.. Drove one in Graubuenden, deep in the heart of Switzerland. Fell in love and told her, I don't care if you want the car or not, I'll buy it.
It turned out that we bought another car (Avusblue 323ti- non M bumpers) in Landshut (where BMW manufactures the 3 series) and a Avusblue, M bumpoered, 323ti for me. Loved that car to bits, should have never sold it.
My guess is Autostrada Modena for wheels. Seen a set for sale lately.
"Because I'm not a degenerate..." *Shots fired!
Favorite build on the channel I honestly prefer its content over the ferrari
Going with Regamasters? Should look absolutely great on the E36.
I would say maybe some model a content for Tuesday that way you can have a nice video for the BMW when it's fully ready.
I don't care which car you work on, I like them all.
I had a lot of trouble with the axles on my M3 too. I planned to replace both but was never able to get the second one out.
was a little confused at first when I saw Season 54, Episode 36 in the title :)
i'm in love
Sweet
I’ve seen the wheel in the discord and I’m super happy with your choice! Can’t wait to see it! Please put 245/40 tires instead of 255/40. I have ran both tires on my E36 and the wall on the 255 is just too big. Makes the car sit too high IMO.
If You Wanna Get Rust Of Take A Wire Wheel To The Bolts Best An Easy Way To Do It
Those friggin door seals... I've been making excuses for nearly four years now to avoid the hammer to the wallet it would take to order two new ones 😆
Hey Mike, good plan putting the Ferrari on hold. I don't know a lot about E36's so I'm enjoying seeing you work on it and getting roadworthy ;-)
Purple Power… you mean fabuloso! You live in socal now bro. When in Rome, do as the Roman’s do lmao
I'm just gonna call it RPF1s, although I would hope for OZ Futuras
Man I love this series I just wish there was links to find some of this stuff! I'm restoring a 95 m3 and finding some of this stuff is so hard to find at a reasonable price
FCP Euro is a great resource for parts.
The only wheels I can think of that would be period correct for an E36 in the fitment you mentioned are Schnitzer Type II 3 piece or Hartge Type C 3 piece…
I'm surprised you missed a popular racing topic in this video. I would like to hear/read your take on it.
Not a fan of HID bulb paired with optics designed for halogen bulb. Proper HID projector retrofit or simply good halogen bulbs with upgraded wiring/relays would be my preference. I hate being dazzled by bad headlight retrofits.
Thank you for not being a degenerate with clear turn signals.
