For all of you E30 fans out there. The start of the BMW E30 325i Sport restoration series is coming soon! Although the project is a quarter of the way through, I'm going to backtrack with photo's and bring you guys up to the current day. I also wanted to thank everyone subscribed for 200K!! A UA-cam and Patreon give is coming very soon! Make sure you are subscribed for auto entry. Thank you everyone!
Ahh so you are doing a complete E30. I was wondering why you were restoring all of these parts and hoping this would be the case. As I have several project vehicles myself i'll be following that series closely. As an aside. It's awesome that they make rebuild kits or at least offer the parts individually to rebuild those calipers! Looks like E30 support is still strong. The 3 series is just excellent.
I went to the comment section to suggest an e30 restoration series because it seemed as if you own one, was very pleased to see that this is already going to happen!
Protip: Take some brake fluid on your finger and coat the piston seal and a coat the bottom half of the piston also. The piston will go in a lot easier and the seal won't dry out if you don't plan on using the part for a while. Also, install the dust cover on the lip of the piston first then press it into the caliper after the piston is seated in the bore, then press the dust cover into the recess of the caliper.
I LOVE that you're literally restoring almost every piece of the e30, rather than replacing a lot of the parts. I love these silent resto videos, and I love car resto-modding vids. Best of both worlds.
Cant imagine mines looking so badly rusted. But i can imagine the difference of additional stopping power after a clean up like this. Such a satisfying proces. Great video
I love these videos. The amount of effort and time involved in restoring heritage automotive parts really adds to the value of the part. If someone has to spend days restoring one caliber, it highlights that sometimes it to more economical to buy a new part.
After degreasing I would have thrown it to a bath of phosphoric acid for a day. Cleans up every nook and cranny, doesn't harm the parts and usually no need for a wire brush afterwards. But nevertheless, good job and props on using silicone grease on the slide pins!
Utterly great videos. Your work has definitely inspired some DIY work that I've gotten into, no doubt it's happened for others too. Very excited to continue see the car coming together, piece by piece. Cheers.
Can’t read every comment but didn’t see it mentioned : one spot you didn’t mask (and should have) is the surface the brake ads will ride on. This needs to be clean steel so the pads slide smoothly. I’m not an E30 expert but just want to let you know in case some paint needs to be removed from those areas. One area of the car not to mess around with; brakes. Love the channel. Keep up the great work.
I do a lot of work similar to this. I bought a large heated ultrasonic tank to clean parts in. I use 50% Simple Green and water. Sometimes, I let the parts sit in it overnight. This has been a game-changer for me and I cannot say enough positive things about it.
Top Arbeit wie immer. Ich hab von Autos zwar null ah übt, aber deine Videos gucke ich immer wieder gerne, Restaurationsvideos in dieser Qualität sind einfach super, weiter so 👍
While I am an E23/28 guy instead of E30, I still find your videos incredibly useful given the easy crossover of some of the parts, especially the differential. Keep up the good work!
Im always amazed by the reassembling part of your videos because im the type of person who can barely put a mechanical pencil back together let alone a part of a car
Never seen someone do so much effort in his brake system hehe, i cant argue with that! this looks just awesome. Still have to say that you never ever have to force the brake piston in with a tool! This tool is only ment for servicing your brakes (new pads/cleaning) It is easely possible with hand . The grease must be high friction grease on the guides! I hope you learned from me. Its brakes we talk about, those must be save ;) Still love this channel to watch!
The moment i saw this i was like: He have not actually do that 😂Well, this guy just fucket up pretty hard when he wants to bleed his brakes an just round the Valve 😂
Nice! I used to struggle getting the dusk boot on but after many rebuilds I've discover that I can slip the boot on the bottom of the cylinder and then with it barely on work it into the caliper. Much easier that way.
Congrats on 200k subscribers. Locktite on the bleed nipple isnt needed, the nipple is the one part you want to move when bleeding the brakes. I've always found it easier to fit the piston before the dust cover, either way its still fiddly. Perhaps nickle plating the nipple would have added a bit of oooh, aaaarh and stopped future rust. Nice work as usual.
Awesome job!! This kind of stuff is fascinating to me! I could watch these kind of videos all day long. I looooove the no music style, very relaxing to have just the sounds of work. Peaceful. Thank you for sharing you projects and skills with us. I really appreciate your level of detail and precision, it’s very satisfying to watch, I’m sure it’s even better for you to experience it first hand. Great job on this channel I’m a huge fan of your work. Good luck and keep it up, you are appreciated my friend
I'm trying my hardest to get a new cabinet for the channel sponsored so I can film with ease. My homemade one is very leaky. And my DSLR could die. Very soon!
Very nicely done, very professional. Tidbits: Loctite is not needed on the bleeder valve because you have to open it for bleeding. Also, you can put the piston in then put it's seal on afterwards with some grease. By doing this, you would not need a caliper piston tool to force the piston in. You also could save the rubber seal from getting damaged and it would overall be easier.
Great job as usual...like the comp air to blow the piston out lol....one day consider a ultrasonic bath when soaking the parts...nevertheless still a perfect effort 10 out of 10😅✌
Sounds goofy but I was taught to lube the Piston seal then blow compressed air through the port while working the Piston in. Kinda tricky at first but works well. Not trying to haggle, your a god among men my Friend keep it up!

Love the channel. If I see one of your videos, it doesn't matter what I am watching, I will click and go straight to watch your new video. Watching your restoration videos is one of the most satisfying things for me. Thank you.
I hope you didn't sandblast inside the caliper, especially where the piston sits as its supposed to be incredibly smooth! i dread to think that theres bits of media floating around inside the caliper with the bleed nipple and hose being removed edit: that better not be locktite on that bleed nipple!
I found it odd that he didn't get a cylinder hone to smooth down the inside of the cylinder. Even if he didn't blast it, it still should have been honed to refinish the surface.
I'm starting to believe you found an e30 in a lake, pulled it out, and have started restoring it one caliper at a time. Nice video, makes me want to rebuilt the calipers on my esprit now.
Funny I half restored a brake caliper too a while ago but didn't finish it because it would have cost me about £50 for new rubber bits and the pads! Great video, takes me back.
Now that was pretty. I've rebuilt so many calipers. I didn't paint them but I wish I could have. In this boot design, I'd install the Piston by driving dry air through the bleeder orifice. Worked great
с точки зрения обслуживания, это треш. Поршень должен легко входить когда все новое и смазанное. Штуцер конечно прокачной на фиксатор резьбы, это СИЛЬНО!
I am doing similar restorations on Mk1 escort parts. I dont have a car yet (Still searching for a good base for restoration) but i have a collection of parts including a 1600 GT crossflow engine, M16 brake Calipers, 6 clock dash (that was a complete wreck but now mint) and dash top. Its great to watch your E30 series as the parts are not that dissimilar and your methods inspire me to get on with my own work :)
A superb restoration of a perfectly good and well made brake caliper that would have no doubt found its way to the scrap yard,it looks like it has just been unbox ed, well worth my 5 ☆ rating
Нахера ты пескоструил цилиндр? его ненадо было трогать вообще... теперь суппорт можно в помойку выбросить, ибо не будет тормозить а сопливить конкретно тормозухой
Im not sure mate... was the paint you used heat resistant? Also if you prime under it they have different elasticity and topcoat can crack. Normally calipers are just multiple coats of heat resistant paint directly on the metal.
You can paint the calipers as long as the fluid stays _inside_ the system, which is _supposed to be_ closed to the outside world. It needs to be high temp paint, of course.
Nice project for sure. And I've done that same thing myself. But now I have a powder coating system and would use that to "paint" such parts knowing they will hold up to most anything and a lot longer. Thumbs Up!
Пыльник и поршень вставлял неправильно. Поэтому и остановка съёмки. Была. На штуцере думаю была смазка для незакисания. И ещё . Что так 1 суппорт? А не два? И пескоструй и сначала потом поршень извлекаем. Думаю так. Согласны Русскоязычные?
If his hobby is restoring things, I don't think that he would want to buy new ones. Where I live, finding new calipers for $20 (especially colored ones) would be impossible unless I stole them.
Amazing if you can find them so cheap. Here in Norway, a single, used caliper in semi-ok condition is probably around $100, and then you'd have to restore that aswell. An aftermarked, not as good as OEM caliper is probably around $200+.
Also here where I live if you put used brake parts on a vehicle it would void the road worthiness certificate. Rebuilding a brake caliper however is fine providing it is done correctly. Only thing this chap missed is honing the cylinder before installing the new piston. I would think the rebuild kit is much cheaper then buying a whole new caliper.
@@forevercomputing The piston was replaced and it's my understanding you should hone the bore to allow the new piston to seat properly. There is some seriously tight specs with these as working pressure (and heat) can be very high. Braking on a steep hill for example. There is no margin for error as this is a critical part of the cars brakes and you need to be able to trust it.
Small tips for your next caliper restoration (rear set ? ;) ) A little piece of plywood might prevent any scratches when bumping out the piston. You can blast with something a little harder if you leave the piston and the old boot in place. No risks for the bore. It's better to close the threaded input with the old brake hose when blasting. It seems you've soaked the main seal in DOT before mounting, best way to do ! A better way to mount the main boot is to install it on the bottom edge of the piston prior, then in the caliper. Really easier and no pinches. Same thing for the smaller boots. Install it on the shaft first, a lil'bit of grease and insert it in the caliper mount. The only mistake is the thread-locker on the bleeder. Really frail part so ... really bad idea. In fact I'm even using cooper grease for the bleeder and the hose. I like rebuilding calipers, nice and peaceful operation, except the blasting step. And ... it might be useful ... sometime ...
I just done my calipers up, with the slide rails I was so pleased you applied the correct lubricant, so many ppl use grease and either too much or not enough anyway, also not knowing the repercussions using the wrong lube, wear and leakage causing contamination ti the pads. I 2k'd myne aswell only I mucked the shoe clearance with paint, however no big deal as I fixed that with my dremel. Good work Steve. Take care celebrating 2019 mate. All the best again. James.
When I have items like these with layers of scale i'll typically use the electro rust removal technique. Just did my rear calipers on my E36 and they came out looking brand new.

The amount of effort and time involved in restoring heritage automotive parts really adds to the value of the part.
If someone has to spend days restoring one caliber, it highlights that sometimes it to more economical to buy a new part.
True. And spelling is CALIPER or CALLIPER. "Caliber" is a totally different word,
Nice work!
Little tip if you cover the new piston seal in a bit of brake fluid the piston will slide right in!
I was thinking that
After degreasing I would have thrown it to a bath of phosphoric acid for a day. Cleans up every nook and cranny, doesn't harm the parts and usually no need for a wire brush afterwards. But nevertheless, good job and props on using silicone grease on the slide pins!

Another cracking video. Nice to see a caliper being rebuilt and restored instead of being replaced. Nice colour too.
Its like you got a magic wand to transform old, rusty pieces to shinning glow even better than factory. Thumbs up!
Great job probably better than the original BMW finish
Thanks, Richard.

Why would you put loctite on the bleeder valve? That thing has to be loose to bleed the air out of the brake lines.
I wasn’t thinking straight there, haha.
The moment i saw this i was like: He have not actually do that 😂Well, this guy just fucket up pretty hard when he wants to bleed his brakes an just round the Valve 😂
It's the blue stuff, not that hard to break loose.
Also.. Skip silicon grease and use anti-seize instead.
(O[][]O) silicon grease is better for the rubber

Couldn't you strap your camera to the cabinet in some way as to have it looking through the window?

I wonder how long it will take to restore the whole car
Keep it up!
Sweepstake? I`m going for 28/04/2042.
Probably close to a year
10 minutes for a Brake Caliper... let's say 24 hours for the whole car restoration
Are you talking about my car?! lol
That was done perfectly!! I would or could not have done it better myself I had the same spray gear and materials as you do. Just great work.
Great job as usual...like the comp air to blow the piston out lol....one day consider a ultrasonic bath when soaking the parts...nevertheless still a perfect effort 10 out of 10😅✌
You are definitely a professional! An amateur would paint the threads and the inside of the piston housing. Great job!

Blue loctite. It's not hard to remove. I don't think it's a good idea, but it's not the end of the world. Blue comes loose easily.
I found it odd that he didn't get a cylinder hone to smooth down the inside of the cylinder. Even if he didn't blast it, it still should have been honed to refinish the surface.
but loctite on any bolt you want to easily remove is a bad idea. it's not like it will back out.

I like rebuilding calipers, nice and peaceful operation, except the blasting step. And ... it might be useful ... sometime ...
собрал суппорт как рукожопый...смазки толком нет...поршень запихал в наглую...сразу видно к авторемонту не имеет ни какова отношения!
так он живёт тем, что рекламирует здесь всякие жижки...
Subscribed. I love these restoration videos. More please. I overhauled my car's brake calipers but not to this extent. Great video !
I love your videos man. Dont stop
I just done my calipers up, with the slide rails I was so pleased you applied the correct lubricant, so many ppl use grease and either too much or not enough anyway, also not knowing the repercussions using the wrong lube, wear and leakage causing contamination ti the pads.
I 2k'd myne aswell only I mucked the shoe clearance with paint, however no big deal as I fixed that with my dremel.
Good work Steve.
Take care celebrating 2019 mate.
All the best again.
James.
Really nice video, from all the procedures to that nice camara, loved it...
Another deep clean restoration and magnificent finishes piece! Thank you!
At last a new video! Awesome as always, thank you!
Wow, this was satisfying to watch. Thanks for the great video!
When I have items like these with layers of scale i'll typically use the electro rust removal technique. Just did my rear calipers on my E36 and they came out looking brand new.
I watched all the videos. They are all very beautiful. Greetings from Turkey 👍
