More E30!! More 2002!! Just upload more!! Your channel is my favorite on the entire site but you barely upload! It makes my day everytime I see you have a new video.
I literally checked your channel page a couple days ago like , “man where is Derk with 2002 updates” and BOOM! Should have checked for a million dollars, lol. Happy to see the progress man, I like your attitude towards the project and how you’re just like it’s gotta get done and get in there and do it. Keep it up man!
hahah that's wild!! Should turn on post notifications 😉 but seriously man thank you so much! Hearing this makes me even more motivated to get the car finished 😁
Happened upon your channel a couple days ago and I've been binging your build vids, great content man! Can't get an e30 atm but your vids give me fomo 😭
Thanks for sharing these steps in your straight to the point style...video shoot quality and music are great-these motivate me to get moving on my 2002.
I’m a new subscriber and I’m looking at buying an e30, I was wondering if you can make a video on common problems,things to look for when buying, and any beginner affordable mods?
Loved the video man! I have been building a 2002 for the past couple months and I have been filming it. I am trying to make content like this, so seeing these videos like this is inspiring!
That's awesome man! Its a blessing and a curse trying to film everything because of the extra work and editing but rewatching the process is definitely something special. Thank you and I'll be looking forward to seeing your content! 😁✌
Thanks for the heads up! I actually waited until I mounted the trans to the motor to torque down that nut just because it was tough to get enough torque on the bench
Thank you man! I really appreciate it and yes I do have a video of me removing the auto trans and installing the full manual swap 😁 I'll be uploading those in the near future!
@@derkm haha nah man trust me when I saw your doing alot more than alot of the people in there. I've been building my 02 for the past year and ask dumb questions all the time
I just won a 1971 BMW 1600 and I'm new to all this work on cars, but I want to learn how to do it, so you have some tips and tricks? Were can I find some tutorials? I like your videos a lot btw! Need more of them.
You won one?! Congrats man! And I highly recommend checking out the 2002faq forums. Ive learned a fair amount on there as well as the 2002faq facebook page. Ill be uploading more on this car when I have time but those resources should help quite a bit!
@@derkm Thanks a lot! I'll take a look on these forums. It's hard to find good video's on UA-cam, so I was very happy to see good footage on your channel! Oh and you asked what we prefered, I do prefer your videos with voice over and additional information/tips like the first ones. Keep up the good work!
You need at least poly bushings for the engine mounts and transmission mounts to run a chassis/solid mount shifter properly. I run the 80a (red) garagistic bushings on my e30s with the solid mount shifter and it works beautifully and isnt as harsh as solid engine mounts 👍👍
@@derkm Thanks for the response. I bought and just returned those sane mounts. On Garagistics website the poly mounts are different for the e28. I have a 528e. The bushings for the e28 are double in price lol.
Thank you bro! I love what you're doing with your 2002! I wish I could strip mine down and really make it clean but I dont have the space or confidence yet haha
I've been working on the car a good amount the last couple months and have a lot of stuff filmed! Just need time to edit and I'll be releasing new videos soon!
Cost more than 4x how much I got the 4 speed swap parts for and I plan on doing a motor swap in the future thatll need a whole different transmission anyways 😉
All depends! I'm personally just running some ebay headers and then I got my buddy to adapt my existing custom exhaust that was on the m20 to fit the new headers on the m50. I've always gone to my friends to fabricate exhaust piping for me but I'd just UA-cam different e30 m50 exhausts and see what you like
Still have it! Been on pause but I have content filmed for it from where I left off and I have new videos I'm planning on releasing for it soon. Sorry for the delay and ty for your patience!
@@derkm time is ticking. Got my freshly rebuild motor back and jammed the engine compartment to put the new engine and trans back in. Redid all volví brakes on my 68. Can’t believe I’m ahead of you. 🤣🤣🤣 I’ll be looking out for your new content for sure
@@waterlover haha nice!! I already did a bunch to the car and filmed it back in 2020 but just haven't edited the footage. Car is currently already manual swapped and the whole drivetrain is pretty much refreshed; axles, hubs, transmission, shifter, and some other bits. Those will be the videos you'll be seeing soon along with a new car I recently purchased 😎
@@derkm nice can’t wait to see the new vids. Yeah I did all new suspension and drive train nothing else to do but bodywork and paint and while it’s at paint I’ll drop off the interior to get redone. Just have to save up for some RS BBS’s
perfect derkm! Thank you ! I am subscribed to your channel I really like how you explain the works I am learning a lot from your videos what I would like to know and what it takes to switch to turbo because here in Italy there is really nothing 😟of these changes
@@derkm thank god I was praying that you didn’t sell her off. I just bought a 68 2002 and it’s been a hell of a blast getting her running and it’s mission to have her done by summer.cheers bud you did good
More E30!! More 2002!! Just upload more!! Your channel is my favorite on the entire site but you barely upload! It makes my day everytime I see you have a new video.
Thank you thank you thank you!! Makes my day seeing comments like this. I wont let you down!
Thank you for the insightful video, very informative 👍
Keep the videos coming anything goes! Glad youre uploading again.
Definitely need those pov pulls and flybys on the E30 after you get that tune done!!
Definitely gonna be doin a video like this asap!
I just picked up a 76 2002. Just got started after sitting in field for 20 years!
Congrats man that's awesome!! You gonna restore it?

I’m a new subscriber and I’m looking at buying an e30, I was wondering if you can make a video on common problems,things to look for when buying, and any beginner affordable mods?
Most definitely!! I had something like this planned but I'm gonna film it sooner now that I know someone is interested in that kind of video 😁
E30 content would be great. Love your channel btw
Thank you man! I'll have some videos on the e30s coming up!
Loving the video style. The music also fits perfect. Super relaxed and makes it enjoyable to watch. Keep up the good work.
Damn dude you can even make taking off a crusty old brake drum look sexy with all that camera slickness
Loving the project 👌
😂😂 ty bro I appreciate it!
Great video, I really enjoy these 2002 videos and I think it's a great and fun little car. Keep going!

Hoooo menn
I loved each seconds thanks ...
More videos pliss
Good blees
Check the torque on the center hub nut...perhaps service the rear bearings...then torque to 286 ft lbs + 5 just an FYI
Thanks for the heads up! I actually waited until I mounted the trans to the motor to torque down that nut just because it was tough to get enough torque on the bench
great vid and great music.
Thank you!!
Greats video, even like your music. The camera work is spot on for backyard mechanics like me. Do you have a video installing a transmission?
Thank you man! I really appreciate it and yes I do have a video of me removing the auto trans and installing the full manual swap 😁 I'll be uploading those in the near future!
Your videos always inspire me to work on my own cars
I'm glad to hear man!! I feel the same exact way when I watch other channels so it's nice to hear my videos are doing the same for people 😁
Can you do some driving in the turbo car, would love some POVs
Will definitely be doing this asap!
Always love watching your videos man 👍
miss you dude 🥺
Dope great editing - post this in the 2002 facebook group!
Thank you man! And one day I will; I dont wanna look dumb in front of the pros 😂
@@derkm haha nah man trust me when I saw your doing alot more than alot of the people in there. I've been building my 02 for the past year and ask dumb questions all the time
I got a 4 speed off a 68 1600 I’m converting it to a 5speed got built head and assembling the bottom end my self can’t wait to drive it
Thats awesome man! Should be super nice to drive 👍👍
Nice work 👌👌👌👌
Did you ever post a video/spreadsheet explaining how much the m50 swap cost on the e30?
I have not actually but I'll post a video with a cost breakdown and I'll put the spreadsheet in the description 😁
@derkm can you show & tell whats up with you rear diffuser on the white e30 ?
very nice and clean work ,keep it up , I would suggest to explain what you are doing or did do with your voice after filming the video
Thanks for the feedback!! I'll probably add more text or add a voice over if things seem unclear in the video 😁
Can we get more on the m50 e30

And if youre in the US and looking to sell it, I may be interested 😅

@@derkm I'm from Belgium! ;) If you're in Belgium one time, give me a call!
Hi please can you make me a list to upgrade to bmw 320i turbo? Is there a specific kit?
Hell yeah I wanna see some e30 content
I gotchu!
More E30 videos pls they are my favourite
Will do! Theres a couple videos I have planned for my e30s so stay tuned 👍👍
Do you need the solid engine mounts for the solid mount shifter? I getting ready to do it on my e28 and wanted to know if I should buy that as well.
You need at least poly bushings for the engine mounts and transmission mounts to run a chassis/solid mount shifter properly. I run the 80a (red) garagistic bushings on my e30s with the solid mount shifter and it works beautifully and isnt as harsh as solid engine mounts 👍👍

turbo the drift build?
M50!!!! Pleas bro! Sick channel. New sub
Thanks man!! That car is currently staying at my buddy's house but I'll try to go there and make a video installing some new parts as soon as I can 👍👍
Nice video bro
Thank you bro! I love what you're doing with your 2002! I wish I could strip mine down and really make it clean but I dont have the space or confidence yet haha
keep going ❤️❤️
Hi, I’m looking for BMW2002 front shock mounts and rubbers. Do you know where I can find these? Thank you
Where did you get that hat from at the beginning of the video? Got a link?
More 2002 videos!!!
I've been working on the car a good amount the last couple months and have a lot of stuff filmed! Just need time to edit and I'll be releasing new videos soon!
Why didn’t you go with a 5speed swap from a e21??
Cost more than 4x how much I got the 4 speed swap parts for and I plan on doing a motor swap in the future thatll need a whole different transmission anyways 😉
Yesssd
I just picked the same trans , does it have a Speedo cable insert?
Yup! Should be a 10mm bolt that holds down the end of speedo cable so it doesn't come out.
derkm mine has a rubber center on the insert not sure if it’s factory
Hey, I have an e30 with an m50, I'm about to get an exhaust what would you recommend?
All depends! I'm personally just running some ebay headers and then I got my buddy to adapt my existing custom exhaust that was on the m20 to fit the new headers on the m50.

Good video. Hello from Russia!
I'm building laurel c33 1jz-gte vvti. Only street drift.
Thats awesome man!! There are some cars in Russia I wish we had here in the US.
Did you end up selling it or do you still plan on making a video update on this beast?
Still have it! Been on pause but I have content filmed for it from where I left off and I have new videos I'm planning on releasing for it soon. Sorry for the delay and ty for your patience!

@@waterlover Sounds like you're almost there!! Excited to see it all finished 🤜🤛
E30 k swap please
E30 K swap stuff will be over at the Garagistic UA-cam channel and hopefully I'll get my hands on a kit once they release 😁
Where are you located? Wondering if you’re for hire. Just bought a 1970 2002 automatic and want to convert to a getrag 245 5 speed.
I'm located in SoCal!
@@derkm shoot. I’m in the Midwest. Love your videos!
Ahhh damn but thank you man!! I've been saying it a lot but I swear I will have new content up soon!@@davidhummer2343
didnt have to bolt in the transmission into a frame of a car this time to get that output flange bolt out lmaoo
Ayyy you remember the struggle 😂😂
I am an Italian I am writing to you with the google translator
Ciao! Sto facendo la stessa cosa 😎
perfect derkm! Thank you !
I am subscribed to your channel I really like how you explain the works I am learning a lot from your videos what I would like to know and what it takes to switch to turbo because here in Italy there is really nothing 😟of these changes
Let me guess you sold her
Still have her! Street registered and running/driving but just been sitting since I haven't had time to install the air suspension and metal flares.
@@derkm thank god I was praying that you didn’t sell her off. I just bought a 68 2002 and it’s been a hell of a blast getting her running and it’s mission to have her done by summer.cheers bud you did good
I dont want to see this crap yet. I want to see the e30 turbo build series, we kinda missed everything on that.
