Great job man! A tip: use neutral dish detergent or petroleum jelly to mount the rubbers instead of the grease. The grease attacks the rubber, it can cause a shortened service life (due to dryness of rubber).
Looked a joy to work on. spending its life in a dry climate sure makes a difference
It was indeed :D
God Yeah, so clean!
Outstanding work on the sub frame refresh.
this is gonna go in a museum when its 101% finished
Haha not this M3, maybe my coupe...
Love the videos learning alot
Glad to hear it Landon :D
So excited to do this to my E34!!! Gonna study that trailing arm bushing removal technique, real clever stuff guys!
08:23 "And as always; do it for Dale" the music sounds exactly like the credits at the end of a Cleetus McFarland video haha.
This was not on purpose haha
I think its the same track :-)
Super impressed!
Perfect job, Perfect editing!
Amazing work! Look forward to the continued progress.
Thank you Frank! Glad to hear it.
Hi man! I bought bare E30 4door. So your videos will help me alot.
Excellent, glad to hear this Zuze!
I love to see the restore!
You doing a great job!
Another excellent vid and thanks to you I can get rid of the not needed ABS rings off the brakes I’m using
Amazing results
Outstanding video, thank you...👍.
The video has the time stamps in it OMG, amazing, great work dude, that is some next level
Thanks Fabio!
Superb, highly professional work. Well done!
Essa BMW vai ficar TOP!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!
You do such an awesome job!!!
Top work mate, your efforts in your work really shows. That caliper is better than when it first came out the factory, 👍💯
Nice video! I'll be doing this job on my e30 this coming fall. Look forward to the limited slip rebuild video😊. Thank you!
Your influence made me get an e30 to work on
Oh too good Aidan! Enjoy it.
Another super video in the old restoreit style, keep them coming
Cheers Richard!
Love your videos!!!
I admire your passion for detailed job my friend!
Greetings from Athens-Greece!
Keep up!
Brilliant simplicity of suspension construction.
It's simply yet affective indeed!
Rust renoving in the blasting cabine looks so satisfying :D
Awesome as usual :)! Thanks for this great content.
Thanks Pottier!
20:57 the E46 Steering rack isn't fitting because you have the front subframe upside down on the workbench 😉
holy fuck the lol's!
I noticed that as well. The garage couldn't have been very good because they also struggled to fit the rack upside down. :(
BRAVO!!!!!!
Great jobo , it looks so great.Was missing the videos.
Красавчик успехов тебе, этом нелёгком деле 👍
Your videos are the best......really enjoy watching them
Thank you Stanley!
You don't need background music, really enjoy every single video you release (on all of your channels). Well done and keep up with great work
Beautiful.
Thank you very much Mceajc
Watching your restorations makes me wonder how do you keep everything organized so you are able to put it back together? I surely do need a few tips on that! Spotless work as always!
Thanks Tune! its the manuals :D haha
@@RestoreIt Ahh so they really are that good then, I will have to try it out :)
beautiful
Awesome videos man!!!
You deserve 100 million likes. I can not stop watching your videos.
Thank you so much :)
I love your projects💓💓💓💓😋
Thank you Alex :D
Great work 👍👩🔧
I like the music, it's subtle and well chosen.
Thank you Sennin!
this job was pretty good!! i`d love to do something like this!! cheers from Sao Paulo, Brazil!!
Как всегда отличная работа!!!
Спасибо!
God of restoration))
Too kind thanks man!
Perfect
My E46 rear subframe looks about 40 years older than yours there before you even did any work on it. Damned UK. Great work as always
Very good work there, RESTORE...IT!!
Thanks!!
A wonderful workshop you have there, I must say! :)
Yay! Miss ya Restore it! 🤣❤
You do so much for the car and Useing the old Shock absorber
Neat, nice.
excelente trabajo
Magnifico👌
Cheers SANUZ!
I love your videos! They inspire me to work on my cars at a higher level. When I get the space, everything will be at your level. I do question the use of a regular painting system on suspension components and whether they will hold up. I've always been of the opinion that chassis components should be sprayed with epoxy or powder coated.
great job meen
excelente trabajo ! el vídeo se ve mas dinámico con un poco de música.
The best!
Thanks Nail!
LET'S GO!!!!
Enjoy!
My dream is have a garage like yours haha. It is really good 👏 and all of your videos are amazing
Zwei Achsen und unendlich viele Teile. Der Tipp mit den ABS Ringen ist klasse
Good work huny
Cheers bbz
Grande el BMW de Antonio jajaja
These kind of videos makes me want to disassemble my whole car, paint all the rusty bits, replace 18 million parts and call it a day. In reality; I don't want to think about removing one of the subframes in the first place.. good job man :) like it.
Saludos desde peru 🇵🇪🇵🇪
Thank you!
Good shit!!!
Excellent repair video
Thank you my friend!
Very very good
Thanks! :D
Music is good. Doesn’t detract. ✌️
Subscribed.... excellent work, content and narration....no b.s. Looking forward to more.
Well thank you Hector! Nice to have to onboard.
very good
Good job congratulations
Thank you Dz!
Solid vid brudda!
Cheers my man!
Gotta love how the channel appreciates the "correct" background music volume. 👍
Sounds like gran turismo music
18:02 maybe for the next time you could put the wheel ring in to the oven or something heat and the wheel hub in to the fridge since you start the process. That way make a little easy the assembly. Grettings from México!!!
Nicely done with the ABS crown! others would have paid the "M" price without researching XD. Love the paint process on the highly exposed parts such as subframe and shocks. Keep it up man!
Thanks man!!
CONGRATULATION...
I am following you from Iraq 🇮🇶
I like your video ❤️
Thanks man!
😍😍 Nice job
Thanks!
It must have been so nice to work on components that hadn't spent their entire life submerged in the equivalent of sea water. Fab job. Cheers.
Isn't that the same music I heard in Emanuelle, back in the days? ;)
Haha royalty free I tell ya! :D
When you had the puller tool on the abs rings while at full tension, you could of tapped the top of the puller with a hammer with moderate force/not hard and the shockwaves would of budged the ring upwards, has worked for me many times
ooo good idea A G thanks for the tip
@@RestoreIt Similarly, when putting the new ones on, you can heat the rings up (blowtorch or oven) and cool the body down (freezer or ice).
You watch Antonio test drive it down a campo track to his finca!
Nice work 👍
Yaay =)
New Video. Nice
Thanks dude!
Love the work as always. Next time you need to press on something like the ABS rings, consider heating them in the oven first. Grease them up like you did, and they should slip right on without risking warping or cracking with a hammer (or a lot less force).
Very good point Scott. I should have done that and will next time i do anything like that, thank!
Restore It just a thought from an old fart 😉
Looks great. You could've looked up how to install ABS rings though ;)
Haha I should have done really..
Nice jobe👍👍👍❤
Thank you again!
Looking at the subframe rebuild at the end of the restoration sequence, sitting on the workbench the pieces looked almost like works of art! Fascinating to watch. Thank you Restore It.
Thanks for the kind words and for watching Orlando1a1 :)
My pleasure!
It is interesting to note the differences and similarities between the E30 & E36. I had to change the rear wheel bearings on my E36 and one of the driveshafts was an absolute pig of a job to get out as it was stuck on the hub. In the end, I used the Clarke CHT240 hub puller to get it out. I had to replace my front lower control arms as well. A popular mod on the E36 is to fit E30 lower control arms. I just replaced like for like along with the "lollipop" bushes. This car will be like new once it is done and will add value to an already very desirable M3.
Thank you Parknest! Good read!
Genio
Great content as always I would really like to see you use DIY powder coat or the creasote stuff for turbos and stuff
Cheers richard, I'll have a look into it
Just an fyi, the E30 was never factory equipped with any turbocharged engine.
good music taste!
Amazing! Is it ok to paint directly on dry rust converter? how it works? thnx!
0:50 are you tighting it up? :D
Haha you're not wrong...
@@RestoreIt Kudos to you for owning up. Integrity... "... even when you THINK no one is watching." Awesome channel and vids. Y'all really should be wearing some kind of gloves with some of this stuff.... Howdy from Texas!
@@512kjt Gloves are for girls xD
@@RestoreIt how much does such a suspension cost you
I hope I translated it correctly
unstoppable Vans )) already 3-4 years ))
something about the sounds of the restoring instruments without talking and music hit different...great job tho
Hello everybody from Germany 🇩🇪
I like it with on music
Hey there! I'm interested to hear your opinion on this. These series' are mainly about full resto, and bringing cars back to their former glory, and I'm loving every episode. You ever thought about perhaps putting your own spin on some of the cars you do? Like perhaps an OEM+ or a track oriented build?
I will be doing something like this in the future for sure :)

Thanks man
Hey,
first of all great job mate.
Can u maybe make a video of how u keep track of ur screws and stuff? How do u manage all ur parts?
Thanks for ur videos.
