1:56 So the specific ALMS M3 GTR's engine, the P60B40, was actually completely bespoke, and the 10 road cars they made were how they got the engine homologated, however PTG did build a M3 GTR for the Grand-Am series in 2001 that did use the M5 engine, but that had the same bodywork of the 2000 inline 6 GTRs
The idea that Theo is actually capable of inviting Dean all across the pond, only for him to scratch the driver door on his M3 GTR, is both comical and mind-blowing
Take it from an M5 owner The S62 is not Reliable, The double Vanos and Timing chain guides are prone to failure. Also the S62 sounds like an old diesel at Idle….
@@sir_ma-at_mons never had troubles with mine. Needs a lot of servicing to be reliable tho. Not the best sound while idle I'll agree, but not diesel bad 💀
@@BlackPanthaa 17:08 I gotta know, are you putting the a straight cut gear box in? Gotta hear that cutting up through the rpm for that real authenticity
The M Division did put an S62 in an E46 as a skunkworks project. A total one off, but it's possible. Just like the E46 M3 estate prototype. Don't know if you knew about those two cars. But now, you do.
Wow! I was watching the last video for the M3 build last night wondering "when will the next one come out?" And I've been blessed the next day, let's go Theo
I am going to say. I’m pretty happy with the E39 V8 because I know in Germany during the early 2000s as they were trying to produce a CSL successor. Originally they were going to go with a V8 since it was meant to be a road going car that you could take to the track, they stuck with the in-line six, because of weight I think. But still pretty cool to see an E 39 V8 and a beautiful car like this. And by the way, that E39 V8 CSL is in the museum check it out.
You could pay the actor to record that cutscene again, just in this case not with an actual key but maybe something made of rubber or something so the paint won't scratch Would be a fun recreation of the original cutscene ^^
Good job guys, defo an achievement getting the V8 sitting on it's mounts. The crossmember should unbolt pretty easy. I'd suggest you remove it and have the tabs professionally welded now you have them where you need. Also gives you a chance to get it powder coated and looking pretty. This engine/car is a huge investment, you don't want it falling apart. You'll end up hating (fixing) it. lol I'm debating doing a (possibly a B38 1.5 & 8hp45 gearbox) swap to make my Non-m3 e46 Compact a little bit special.. but it's a lot of effort just doing the research, not to mention picking up the tools and melting the cash card. 😂😂 Good luck with the Non-M3 NFS-MW Coupe Theo 👍🏾
What would be cooler though? Dean McKenzie doing the pinstripe or asking Josie to do the intro of a future video? Hi, I am Josie Maran and I play Mia in Need For Speed Most Wanted. Make sure you do all your racing in the game. On the streets, drive safely and responsibly and wear your seatbelts. Sorry, I mentioned her name and intro came spilling out of me 😂
The reason your swapping to the m60 oil pump is to delete the pickup tune solenoid system built into the s62 pump. It will allow the pan to be thinner so it fits better. The s62 has a very cool multi pickup system based on the accelerometer sensor ftom the anti lock brakes. If you were swapping this into an actual m3 it would be even easier, the s54 and s62 share the same family of Siemens ecus and they use a lot of the same protocols so it works with most of the factory modules including the factory abs.
I absolutely love how accurate this is. Most of them you see with the most inaccurate body kit imaginable and call it a day. You absolutely put the effort in and built a exact replica with everything right. Your a legend
Hey guys great choice of engine. If I had the money I would've installed a S62 over my M62 4.4 when I converted my E46 coupe. The hardest part really is making the oil pump work, even welding the engine mounts was easier!
I just saw the hole series of the m3 replica and I have to say, it's amazing the process, I enjoy the videos and learn a lot, I expect the next video 😂👌
E46 nut here, there's many types of prop/diff differences unfortunately. 320d/330d are their own, avoid these as they won't fit the S62/S54 motor or diff you will need. For 4cyl and 6cyl up to 2.8 is a smaller and different diff flange, prop and gearbox length. They don't all perfectly go together. For 6cyl 3.0 the diff flange is different, there are 2 types manual box prop and diff, and auto box prop and diff. These aren't interchangeable. Additionally then you have the M3 3.2, this has again a different gearbox, prop and diff. Most importantly for you, the diff will be an LSD, all other e46 diffs are open. Hope this helps!
BRO WHY IS EVERYONE COPYING DANNY Z???????
We started a year and half ago. is he copying us?
Pinned so we can collectively point and laugh
LOL Theo started way before Danny and plus Theo’s channel was kinda based around the M3 GTR for as long as I can remember I’ve been a sub for years
You can’t gate keep a popular car💀

For the LFA
If you add a straight cut manual gearbox that would be a nice touch. I love that m3 in most wanted because of the gear whining.
awesome having another car video, been a while. Really looking forward to this progressing, Dale is doing a great job helping with everything!
you should def go to the first car show with the cross actor and have him do the scratch there as a show. that would be sick
11:37 OMG THAT TRANSITION WAS SICKKKKK
Awesome have a awsome day theo
Nice to see a new BMW M3 GTR Video! The engine is looking fierce 🫡

No. A real key.

holy shit here we goooooo
Bet you wish you had the Gran Turismo 7 mechanics to just toss it in and 👍
Very much so
That guy should be in the Olympics competing in shot put or something 💪
Can't wait to see this thing finished. By far the build on TH-cam where i'm most excited for.
Can't wait to see how it turns out

It's inaccurate too. Wheel arches should be higher, the bumper also has a little different shape. I love it anyway

It’s nice to have someone confident enough to show they don’t know everything and they’re happy learning because it’s helping me learn too!

Love the Pink Gearbox mounts, I ordered the same ones for my Rover SD1 build :)
From man to man... that fro is 🔥
This deserves a lot more views
this has been my dream since childhood. glad to see someone ACTUALLY trying
Dude, we need more of this, from you! 💪🏻
I'm sure it was explained in an earlier video, but as an American I find it really interesting that you've got a 2G DSM in a place that got real Evos.
We need more videos like this Theo
Now try to source or build custom equal length headers for that flat pane sound and it’ll be mint 😌
I’m soooo glad to see progress
Love the process love the videos of upgrading the car to make it be identical and a v8 that is 👌🥶🔥
Good choice man
Cant wait for the straight cut gears
This is worlds better than my initial recommendation of a m62
Pants really making a m5 coupe with a gtr kit
The oil filter housing is part of the motor mounts...... Thats why im doing an ecotech or 4.8 l33
Been waiting for this update 🔥
Been waiting so long for a video on the bmw
You absolute nobed, ELLLOOOOOOOOOAHHHHHHHH
CONGRATS ON THE V8🎉
I kinda hope you bought straight cut Transmission for the build, I will pray for your pocket.
Love the car build videos 🔥🔥
Can't wait to see it finished it's going to be ins. Also Theo where you get the made in Japan t-shirt from?
Looking good Theo!

This is soooo cool your building real rac cars!!!! Cheers!
Nice video. Keep up the great content bro
Very cool video black panthaa
Neeeed to see this thing on track when it’s finished
Btw for gearbox i recommend Straight Cuts
Damn, and here i was that the engine swap was going to be theo pulling a flintstones while sitting in the engine bay doing vroom vroom noises XD
A sequential gearbox will sound amazing if not similar to the track M3 GTR
Keep it up. don't stop ❤ you are guy who just did not add body kit, but put v8 under the hood ❤
Bro, you HAVE to upgrade the transmission and add straight cut gears. That part is essential.
This project is gonna be wild 😮
Finally the engine is here, by the way the crew motorfest merch is so cool I want one.
