    Dude, this video is rad. I just finished spraying my shaved e30 vert engine bay prepping for an m50 swap. The mini belt sander was by best friend. I bought it just for this project and it paid off! Good job on the build. Its beautiful.

    Probably the most gorgeous E30 I've seen.

    Tip for the die grinder, use a battery power grinder with a cutting disc or small air tool with a cutting disc cut a little groove in the middle of the weld then go over that with the die grinder, it’s faster and the bit doesn’t bounce all over the place

    @Mr.MimeisFrench 3 роки тому +1

    We use a makita belt sander. We modified the end to use 24" belts. There are custom wheels for the tip available made from rubber instead of metal. This allows for cleanup in corners or creases without any chattering or unwanted markings. Splitting the half inch belt into quarter inch strips works even better. I wouldnt buy anything other than ceramic alumina belts by klingspor. The fabric belt lasts longer than the grit applied, which is miraculous...

I have summer cars, i have a winter car and i have cars for driving arround the whole year. The youngest is a 95 corrado vr6. And i have them for driving. If needed from germany to the north of scandinavia in a few days. i need simple access for maintenance or troubleshooting. no, they are not failing every 1000km, but if there is something wrong, i dont want to take the whole car appart to look for fuses, houses and so on.

    Noticed you said the overflow was relocated down onto the frame, your overflow should be the highest point in your coolant chain. Especially on anything complex or high displacement , that way a proper bleed is possible and you don't end up with warped heads from an air pocket.

      The fuse block is in the corner of the bay and wires go out from it everywhere. It’s not awful. But if you want that super clean look then it’s best to relocate
