*Help me get a built engine by shopping my BMW merch: **bimmerstreet.com** ❤*
Bring it to boosted bimmers of Chicago! John is the best and he’ll get you taken care of like no other.
I've also been looking at built N54 options as well. 17Kish when you tick all the options 😬
Why don’t u race him ? Top vs bottom??
@@passivemoney6890 because Jake is in Wisconsin.. lol.
Yup, it's a tough choice because you can keep tossing stock engines in for $2-3k 😅
I'm going to try to make it to the BMW Invasion in Florida and hope to see you there!
@@jake_spence You guys should check out Ghassan automotive or Billiam Mason for a built engine. Some of the best engine builders on this platform.
@@silver_n5442 agreed, Ghassan was flawless with my engine
She sounds so good! Love all the race car noises she makes! Looking forward to seeing the built motor get put in and all of that process!
Thanks Jeremy! I'm also looking forward to it.
Glad to see some more content on the 135i
i got a 2011 135i love my car so dam fun to drive cant wait for this build grew up in Grafton Wisc.got sick of shoveling snow moved to Cali keep up the great work.
Nice! Welcome to the club. I love it here in the summer, but not a fan of the winter. Enjoy that Cali life.
Making me want to just full send my 335i 😭 love the car man, hopefully all goes well 🙏🏼
What's stopping you? 😏
the view out your rear window while driving looks just like a 70's green screen scene in a car lol, like the quality on the camera ends at the rear window lol, gives it a very nostalgic feeling to the video lol
Love it! Make her reliable!
I also own a 135 but a N55. More build as a clubsport/tracktool 💪🏼
That's the plan! Sounds like you've got a nice build. These make for great little track cars.
Hi Jake. Probably a bearing problem. But alter all these pulls on the track it was the expectation, I guess. Thanks for sharing. Dutch regards, Nico.
(PS my car failed too. My injector nr 5 gave up after only 55k miles. I think the injectors do wear by time too, not only on mileage.
My index 5 set is almost 13 yo. New injectors are expected this week).
That's what I'm thinking too, unfortunately. And dang, sorry to hear that, Nico. Glad you got a new set on the way so you can get the car back on the road.
So great to see you driving the 135i Jake! I don't Instagram as I really try to keep my social networking on line to a minimum. So I've chosen Yt and Rumble as well as a couple others so I'm always looking for your content on here. I love your cars and you videos so please try to keep them going as you are truly one of my favorites. You and "0 to 60". Check those guys out Jake! They may have a few ideas you might like with these N54 troubles and the way to go with them and the Tuning. I'm sure you have friends and people that you go to but they are always trying new stuff and new ways of building these. Just a thought. I'm hoping so much that you'll be able to fix this car and put it behind you!
I'll keep making content because of people like you who motivate me, thank you for that! I have watched the 0-60 guys, cool channel. Love watching fellow N5X guys and the content they create, wish there were even more here on UA-cam.
You just made me realize i miss my 135i too,got myself a X5M not too long ago and my 135i hasn't seen me since😭
I had a wicked ticking coming from my E90. Sounded like valvetrain but turned out to be the AC compressor pulley bearing.
Yeah, I've heard all sorts of things can cause some terrible ticking/knocking on these cars but unfortunately I think this noise is coming from inside the engine 😔
@@jake_spence yeah. Once you went under the car with the camera, it sounded like internals. 😔
Lifter tick on n52 it sounds like bottom end too you may not have destroyed it yet it doesn’t sound great but it doesn’t sound exactly like rod knock it could be low oil pressure from a collapsed filter
Can't wait for the comeback
You and me both, brother!
Sounds amazing👌
Thanks man, hoping it sounds even more amazing with a built engine!
since you have experience with bmw vehicles, can you give me some advice? I have a 2011 bmw 335i and I am in the process of changing the turbine and doing it full bolt ons, he recommends that I change the rod bearings, I have the acl i am looking for 550hp
What part you put in the rear for the drag kit wheels 15x10 . You need two gage the knuckle. Where r I can buy it? What car have that part?
Bring it down to Boosted Bimmers of Chicago and let’s get it built right!!!!
Appreciate you guys, I gotta stop down there sometime!
I’m actually looking for a place here Wisconsin to take my 2011 135i… any recommendations? DME went bad…
I just got one I love it
Welcome to the club!
in stead of running it and causing more damage why not just drop the pan and check the rod bearing ? you might be able to polish up the crank and throw in some rod bearings and save the engine? all the best .
Could go with just a simple bottom end build and ported heads I think that’s how wedge performance has their car setup or go crazy with a custom closed deck but feel like that starts getting even more expensive lol
Would you go for a built bottom end ? OR just slap another stock block ?? (wth fresh rod bearings and goodies before slaping all the mods and parts).
I'd like to get something built to handle the power, something I can beat on without having to worry about blowing a hole in the side of the block.
@@jake_spence Yeah i understand, since it's your 2nd N54 with internal problems ^^
Sounds like a lil bit of piston slap...which is weird because it makes the noise when warmed up.
Send the block to la sleeves and get wet sleeves. Darton will do the same with their mid sleeves too.
Could you send in an oil sample to get analyzed. Could provide more insight you never know and it is very cheap to do so.
True, I really should!
Sounnnddsss sick🔥💪
Tear into it on cam! Would love to see you build it. There's very little on these engines.
I know you put the solid subframe bushing and m suspension in the rear. Can you hear the rear gears humming? I want to upgrade the rear and I’m debating m3 bushings or solid bushings. I am building my 135i to be stock plus. High flow cats full interior, trying to keep the noise at an acceptable level. I want to build a 1M like BMW should have.
Yes, I can definitely hear them humming. Mostly thinking because I've stripped the interior of the car though.
@@jake_spence Thanks I will get the m3 subframe bushings then, and poly bush the diff with a softer bushing with no voids..
N54 crisis, that makes two of us. I do not want a 3rd block. Especially when you can’t afford those index 12s
Damn…. Good luck man!
Thanks! Sometimes you gotta pay to play and we're stuck in that spot right now Lol.
My 335i has a sliiiight kind of ticking sound (hard to describe) whenever I switch from park to either reverse or drive (AT, unfortunately but I got it like that for functionality reasons). Planning on checking it out but I find the noise so werid because it basically won’t start (the noise) until I shift from park.
Anyway, hope you find what’s up with the car and it’s an easy fix!
That's super weird. I'm not sure what it'd be, and I've only had two of these with auto transmissions... I try to stick with manuals Lol.
@@jake_spence Yeah. I’m highly unsure of what it is but the car runs completely fine and the MHD readings are on point so it must be some loose piece or something that needs tightening. Still, going to check it out asap.
I love manuals but where I live, it’s a nightmare due to traffic and the roads so I went with AT since it’s not my daily but I do use it more often than not
Are you running a locking differential?
Spence, my spec3+ with smfw failed after2k miles. Making around 600hp. Thinking of a twin disc. WHY DO YOU SAY YOUR TWIN DISC TOOK OUT THE JOY.? WHAT OTHER ALTERNATIVE WOULD YOU SUGEST ME BUYING?
Dang, sorry to hear that. The twin disc is just loud, similar to the SMFW. If you're okay with the noise the SMFW made, you'll be fine with a twin disc.
Hi Spence. Forgot to ask. How are your ceramic discs. Full faced? Three pucks?
Brooooo I live in Wisconsin I love your channel I have 2009 135i that I have couple mods an a tune but I love the way you work on your cars you taking any cars to work on ?? Please hit me back
Love that car
Me too 😀
Im your subscribe and vehicle virals. And your guys help me with the tune and mods a lot but unfortunately my 335 is totaled in the day i felt so bad the dream is gone
What brand and model of tires are you using?
stand-alone would be sick
That's what I'm saying!
Sounds like rod bearing. Stop driving. Check oil filter. Drop the oil pan. If not much damage to crank, u might be able to just put new bearings in. The reason it only start to have noise when hot is because oil gets thin when hot. When cold oil is thick enough and oil pressure is higher when cold. U might be able to save it!!! Especially it only knock when hot
If will and rudnic can rebuild a whole n54 I’m sure you can too!! Love my 135, your videos were a main reason I bought mine, such a finicky car though… never seems happy, picked up a e36 328is last year and it’s quickly becoming the favorite child….
Haha 😂 I think I'm gonna put it in the hands of a trusted engine builder. I looooove the E36 328is. That was the first BMW I ever bought and the car that got me into BMWs. Would love to own another one some day, or an E36 M3.
Will and Chris also got help from Jordan. Will was lost the entire time.
Dang some 135i content !! 👍😁
You guys asked... I'm trying to deliver!
what air filter do u use for ur turbo
Put a built B58 swap in it. Itd be a crazy unique build.
135i✌
I’d recommend swapping bearings in. I had about the same level of noise. Took it apart, ended up having a bad bearing on number 2, although it hadn’t spun it was basically all copper
I can put pictures up in your SS thread if you’d like.
Billiam motor build!!
That's the plan 💪
Mine getting built at bmb right now
I would like to see a N54 built engine. There is not much content around that is like yours.
Cool 😎
hyped
💪💪
what fire extinguisher/ mount do u have
What you see in this video is a fire extinguisher laying in the back seat with no mount. BUT I have a special one with mount from H3R performance that I'll be installing while she's being worked on.
Have to change all injectors. They are 3300 bucks right now it's insane. Probably gonna ditch DI and go standalone at this point and it will be cheaper 🤷
Ghassan Alneama -N54-
Have stock N54 engines ready to ship, with upgraded bearings and specs, $2500 plus core and shipping. Limited availability.
On my second built 1000hp n54 from Ghassan maybe it's just my luck but my recent build did not make it past the thousand mile break in before it blew good luck
That sounds like a rod knock. Same happened to me. The rattling you hear is the rod cap moving more than it should. Ghassan upgraded 1000hp engine is around 11,000$. But for that you can buy brand new long block from bmw,
Read that title and thought you were getting rid of that beast. Was about to be sad.
Oh hell nah, she's sticking around for the long haul 😎
Next step is to widen those rear quarters. :)
Pin the crank & build the bottom end!
You already know 💪
@@jake_spence VAC Motorsports with that Closed Deck option would be something different for the channel
Love your videos man. along with Spencer Berk, Vehicle virals and Zero to 60.
Need some help i want to convert my British e93 330i to an N54 or N55. All the above channels are pretty much N54 channels the N54 engines are cheap to buy over here in england too £2k to £4k.
But i know the N55 is more reliable so was thinking if i went for an N55 i would just buy an N55 car and just swap all my mods from my 330 to the N55 335 then just sell the 330I as a stock acquisition.
The Dilma im in, what do i go for??? As i want to tune.
•N54 engine swap then tune. (Big job and a lot of cowboys about)
•Or buy a 2013 BMW 335I n55 dct ,(Then swap all my mods over (GTR m3 racing hood, m3 front fenders, M3 side skirts, carbon fibre M4 Spoiler, carbon fiber diffuser, carbon fiber wing mirror caps, carbon fiber M grill, front carbon fiber spilter, apc front 6 pot breaks, kw street comfort coilovers, head lights, momo alloys and MICHELIN Pilot Sport 4S tyres etc etc)
HELP!!!!
@J B bmw M6 is 750bhp with a stage 1 tune map and down pipes. But a heavy ass car, gorgeous but not very nimble.
I was in my mate m2 in covoy with an M6 and on the straights the M6 chases u down like a bullet train but in the corners the m2 makes some nice pace. Thats where the M6 struggles! I want big power but a small chassis. Im looked into the N55 a bit more reliable power is 450BHP any more & your spending silly money then u loose reliability. My dream build is N54 with a full engine out service and DCT.
@J B OMG i love the car from zero to 60 watch that ever day and dream lol but don't want his issues 🤣🤣🤣🤷♂️ but a lot of the time i think he just smokes too much weed and paranoid or maby jus a perfectionist.
So much to think about. May have to come down to price or whats on the market which means ill go for the N54 but a lot to think about. The noise my N53 makes is insane i dont wanna loose that, the N55 sounds amazing as only one turbo and more reliable (no fueling issues) but then again im someone that always maintains cars so might not be an issue with N54 as i know what needs to be done as soon as u buy it. See below. And tuning seems easier with the N54 i would be at the mercy of the tuner as i don't really know about the N55 baring bolt one and remap.
When did u go to Oz????
This is what i plan to do with my N54 engine if i buy it, as may go for N55.
Full engine out service:
• All the Gaskets
-Oil Pan Gasket
-Valve Cover Gasket
-Oil fiter housing Gasket
•Lines
•Seals
• Ignition Coils Delphi or Bosch
• Walnut blast to reduce carbon depsosits on Intake Valve
•Spark Plug
•New Belt + pully
• Electric Oil Pump (Very weak point of N54)
• Water Coolant pump
•Injectors Index 12 (need to be coded)
•Alternator if not been changed
•Vanos
•Upgraded high highpressure fuel pump
•Updated low pressure fuel sensor
XHP TUNE.
Let me know if there is anything else required.
@J B thanks for the advice literally copying, pasting and it will store it for my notes. Funny thing is the Valve cover gasket has gone on my 330i (N53) super annoying maybe too much foot to the floor driving! so excited to change the engine though. Can't imagine how fast it will feel i definitely wanna go hybrid turbos. Never thought tuning could be so much fun!!!
What's the weight of this car ?
Jake that’s a rod bearing I’ve seen it too many times
Get some NOS bro plz!
First comment, your 135 is awesome get her done up right!
That's the plan! Thanks for watching 👍
Ball bearing turbo?
Yessir
You spun a bearing. Throw in some kings race bearings you’ll be good
S54 turbo swap, imagine that thing going to 8k.
👍👍 🤗🤗
👍🏿
🤘
I have a n54
Can't let the car sit for more then month and a half. Injectors will get bad this is proven. Two months and could all 6 of them go bad. Sucks this happened. I blew my motor I just changed the motor to a low low mileage one from a running car that you test before taking it out and do rod bearings with ACL race bearings standard size, that's what I did. That's definitely rod knock in yours but very early form. I believe yours is so early that you can get away with bearings standard size and OEM rod bolts torqued to spec and that's it your engine is still good otherwise. I don't think your crank is damaged it barely knocks
Sounds like a rod knock 🥺
I know 😭
Rod knock. Sorry . Ull need a crank a couple of rods possibly
shlart
Cough cough b58 cough
do a pull
Haha, I didn't wanna put a hole in the side of the block but I did get on 'er a couple times. Once I get the engine built, I'll turn up the boost and give 'er hell.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏tne rims f14 is 15x10 et 44. ? And ???
I'm running APEX ARC-8s right now. 17x9" rear and 18x8.5" front.
For drag f14 can fit .in 15x10 et 44 ?
Can you please tell me the specification 🤞🙏
Build the engine
Save a headache and put a 2j
Sound like intermittent rod bearing spun. I’d drop the pan and check it out, before thinking about built engine. Why not create different route, NA S65 swap.
Sounds broken
I bet people that dont know and see this car probably are like what a piece of junk and sounds like shit but to those who know can agree that it is alot of money in that car and it definitely sounds good too i drive a benz for now but Im justifying wether to get the f80 m3 or the cla45 just becau they are both great cars in there own way but you can never go wrong with the n54 platform and single turbo just sounds 🔥 great content brotha
Thanks man! Those are both great cars, but you know which one I'd suggest 😉
@@jake_spence yessir and I wouldn’t disagree either!
Does your state have tyrannical injection mandates, masking, & vax passport system?
Bro what...
Not to that extent. Masks & the vaccine are highly encouraged, but I'm able to live life fairly normal.
You need a better thumbnail than that bro, you need to be sad you need to act like “OH NO I BLEW MY MOTOR WHAT WILL I DO NOW 😢”
