What’s a wheel ?
Looks great
you have a bright future up ahead bro plz never selll this carrr
Thanks man, and nope never selling this one
cant wait to see on rentober
best
Tire setup ?
Would love to be able swap a S54 in mine but sadly California is very strict when it comes to any engine mods.
Why are the 6 cylinders always so much heavier, this is still heavier than a stock 4 cyl zero option sedan (with dual zone AC/Heat/Radio)
Think you are referring to the e36 compacts. Regardless 2600s with 320whp is pretty potent
You need those door cards for weight reduction asap, if you want to do even more delete rear window regulators and put poly carb windows in the rear
Carbon door panels is the next thing on my list. And yes i do want to gut the rear doors and go poly
I bought a similar set of M parallels for my e36 wagon. What did you have to modify the rear fender well to fit the large rim and tire?
Rears are fully flared out, i did all this before painting the car
Paint matching the mount would be clean
That engine bay is definitely pretty. Not sure if the tucked radiator would leave room for an intercooler and an oil cooler in my dreams but its very nice. Can you fit an electric fan on the front? An Hose is slick. Have you made a video on building these? I would really miss my AC.
Intercooler should still fit, and i do have a oil cooler in front of the radiator. About 1 inch of clearance
@@_unclemuscles I saw the oil cooler in a later video... That the intercooler will fit make this tucked radiator a very tempting piece. My Mishimoto is never going to die but extra room in the engine compartment would be very nice to have.
Bruh this build is gorgeous but I threw up when I seen the rears tucked 😂
Rear fitment is mint, whatchu talking about
@@_unclemuscles personal preference is all
jesus christ just at least try to look like you're enjoying yourself
Nope
I want to shave my engine bay so bad. It looks so good
can't wait to see it again in person in October!!
Ready for Renntober vibes👍
so clean definitely my fav 36 out there
Sweet! Never knew you had a youtube chanel, Always loved your tiktoks and exited for more. Bless the youtube algorithm!
Thanks man!
Dual pass pretty much guarantees that the entire surface area of the cooling core is utilized, with a single pass the corners rows can become stagnant. The biggest thing about a dual pass is that it facilitates the possibility of both the inlet and outlet being on the same side of the radiator, with a single pass this can *technically* be done but is incredibly inefficient. Been on the fence about this rad for a while, might just go for it... just really wish they would've shrouded the E fan instead of leaving the whole back of the radiator open. Not sure if you're open to suggestions from randoms on the internet but looking at your setup, the upper hose is basically begging for a custom baller swirl pot install there with the radiator cap relocated on top... Just saying. Lol Digging the content dude, new subscriber here.
Thanks for the added info man! And as for the shroud from what i gather is. Shrouds help cool the radiator better at idle and low speeds, but can be a restriction on cooling at normal speeds since a shroud is basically a wall. Without the air will be able to pass through easier without relying on the fan being the central point of heat extraction.. Granted i have no ran any tests on this theory but it makes sense to me🤷♂️
Sweet, can’t wait for the next video of this journey
It’s so freaking clean dude. I want my e30 swap to look that good
It's looking sharp. Well done man.
Love the build dude! Killer work! Thanks for the support!
Just wanna thank you for making the most difficult part my manual swap on my e36 a walk in the park. The flexible clutch line straight into the slave cylinder instead of the OEM hard clutch line was AMAZING.
No giveaway is cool but wouldn’t be mad at a e36 burn out vid
Not a bad idea!
Beautiful build man! Can’t wait to get an e36 myself 🔥👍🏻
lets get 5k subscibers so our boi can get a CF Roof
Listen to this guy^^
very clean bro
As always your vid delivers. Clean work
Chasebays makes sick stuff, love the 1/4 hood for summer too.
james always doing some cool and clean shit
Polycarbonate windows will get you an easy hundred pounds 🤙
Idk about 100, but probably 50ish for all the sides and rear glass. The windshield is staying glass
How about removing some of the glass for weight reduction? You could go to plexiglass
I eventually want to do that, keep the front doors glass. Rears plexi
This is the first time I have seen someone weigh their s54 swapped e36. I'm going to weigh mine (has almost zero intentional weight reduction on it so far) on a friends corner balance scales soon and start a spreadsheet to track changes to the car and its weight. For batteries: I have had lifepo4 in a street car before and it can be a hassle to live with. Also your hold down hardware/bracket weight starts to become a significant percentage of your battery weight so consider looking at that too. If you go that route make sure you aren't pulling any current when the car is off or you have a battery cutoff switch that is easy enough to access that you will actually use it. It's very easy to kill one of these from over discharging and they have comparatively very low capacities. Also I haven't looked into brands in a while but shop around and try to find some dissembled images of different batteries. The braille batteries I have seen internals of were really bad + expensive. I haven't seen anyone tear down an antigravity battery but I'm sure someone has. Realistically these battery companies are buying cells or pouches from the same factories as everyone else and assembling them and marking them up different amounts. I had an alien motion and was happy with the cost and construction quality. If you can find a large enough cylindrical cell based battery I think those are a better route than prismatic pouches but they are less common now.
Big selling factor of the Antigravity for me is my friend has been running one with zero issues for like 3 years now.
My e36 328is 2dr w S54swap, weighed at 2750 with a heavy battery in trunk.
I love your videos man! Such clean cars keep up the amazing work
Thanks man
GTR front splitter?
ACS style
I didn't think it was that easy to use the scales at truck stops. Do they charge?
Yup, drive on, press the button. They will ask what your truck number is, make one up. Go to the front desk and its like $13
What?? I thought you hat at least 100k subs. Great quality video!
Thats insane i get comments like this. Been grinding to get to 1,000😂
I can tell that if you keep going the way you are, you will grow a lot! great content!
Thanks a lot man! 🙏🙏
Do you have a link to the little jack stand support thingy?
this is awesome!!!
one of the cleanest e36 builds ive seen along with m3estoril. Sheeeesh
Thank man!
Dat fkn swap bay tuck cleannnnnn love it man… killed it Good shit
2565 LBS
The whip sounds mean homie!! I’m looking into doing a e36/s54 swap myself. 🙌🏾💪🏾🤙🏾🔥💯
Gopro doesn't do full justice tbh, but you won't regret the swap man!
2700
thing looks mental bro! more people need to see this you know what youre doing
mk4 in the back is mint aswell
every time I see this engine bay show up I feel motivated to S54 swap mine.
You won't regret it!
This gives me inspiration to engine swap my E36 M3.
So question ? You are not worried about debri comin into the duct up in your intake and going into your motor ? i notice there is 0 air filter on ?
There is a large filter in between the two halves of the intake
