Love this kind of content! You guys are killing it!🤙
Love it
It’s part of the motor swap! I love to see the details that go into it. I’m sure some adhd people are fidgety about it but it’s part of the process and it’s awesome!
Also, can’t wait for the shirt/zip up hoodie I ordered to arrive. The SA branding is sick!
Sure, cable management ain‘t the most awesome stuff to watch in the world but it‘s part of the process. I rather watch an episode of splicing cables than all of these „builds“ that are done to 90% in a third party shop...
I just finished up my wiring harness for my S62 E34 touring build... and I'm colorblind...
The M5 Touring that BMW should have made
Should have brought them to North America
E61... just saying xD
I agree brotha
come from Germany myself have a 540i station wagon I think I do the m5 engine with compressor know 2 who have it drive with 800 hp vmax 370 kmh 229 miles with m5 f90 gearbox
@@commandergrizzly1377 definitely will do! Sounds very cool!
Damn, I have had my gas soldering tool for 7 years now and never knew that half circle attachment was made for that!!
you and me both hahaha
That makes three bros
May the algorithm bless this video, lads. Always a good start to a Saturday!
YES, my favourite project currently on youtube :)
It’s up with the qoonzquad channel for me! I love these Canadian guys lol notifications on for sure
+1 ❤❤👌
Same!😊
You are not watching project Binky, by BOM?! Shame shame shame on you. LOL
@@tomahoks I am watching that too. Just this updates more regularly 😅
yessss!! Hey you know whats cool Dave? The M5 cluster is in english. ;)
You guys should do a series of "wrecker builds"...set a really cheap project car budget...and get all upgrades from local pick and pull wreckers. Put a time limit, like 6 hours at the wreckers picking parts, or something, and that all "upgrade" parts must come from the auto wreckers. Whatever you guys do, whether the channel stay the same or makes some changes, I'll continue to be along for the ride.
So roadkill with more modern cars? I'm in
I am happy to see you guys are using mechanical connections, instead of soldering the wires!
Why is that (no sarcasm)?
@@gloriousstereo solder work-hardens with vibrations and bending, and can break given some time. When all is shrink wrapped and included in a loom, finding such a fault is a nightmare.
@@Qgal5kap123 Gotcha. Thanks
@@gloriousstereo To piggyback on this, I remember reading on a forum years ago about a guy who advised against soldering automotive wires. I don't remember his specific reasons but I do remember that his day job was as a tech for a commercial vehicle company (industrial tractors, maybe). Some company or contractor had switched up their manufacturing (from crimping to solder) for a series of these vehicles, and after X amount of years, they were all getting overhauled for broken solder joints.
You can really tell pt really loves this job and desperately wants that BMW to work. Love, it’s what makes a BMW a BMW.
Next time get some self sealing heat shrink, it keeps out moisture and makes the connection stronger, it’s a little more expensive but really good for splicing. An alternative is the self solder/heat shrink connectors, place wire in, heat with a heat gun and it solders and shrink wraps the connection in one very quick operation plus its self sealing as well 👍
16:15 Audio peak meter: Am I a joke to you?
So cool project. You are just adding an M model, where bmw forgot to make one. I don't even like bmw:s, but this is still an exciting project from a car guys point of view.
Agreed, not a BMW fan but still a cool build.
Very cool build !
This might be the coolest build series on UA-cam right now, lovin’ it🤘🏼
I agree!!!
The drain plugs are coated, replacing them means the coating is intact and stops the cold welding in place from corrosion 👍
The clutch fork post.
It is possible to fit a Teflon washer over it or to drill the top and fit a ball bearing.
A steel post may seem to last longer but may transfer the wear to the fork. Replacing the post seems the lesser of two hassles.
DP throwin shade with that spaghetti comment 😂
Love it guys as always keep it up!!!!!!!! We gonna grow this channel should be over a million followers already
I understand where DP is coming from in the reliability stand point. But when I look at BMW’s like that it just excites and radiates beauty in way that Volkswagon-Audi and other lesser brands just never could. It’s Jaguar crazy, Porsche different, Acura dynamic, and Merc power all into one BMW.
Loving the tool upgrades too! I remember your last experience with a sub-par vacuum filling tool lol. I was one of many in the comments recommending the airlift brand. Use mine on my notoriously difficult to bleed 4th gen Camaro and used it at work at the dealer for years!
Really dope !
The one thing I hate about your videos is the fact that after you guys start a project and make such amazing videos all the used car prices skyrocket up! Can't get a good M3 or M5 for reasonable money anymore... lol! 😝 Keep it up. Thanks giving us great content.
nonsense
Man, i have to buy an m bodykit for my 523i. It looks awesome! :D
The LS is nice but the M5 wagon is amazing! Great videos series. Looking forward to more videos. Also lots of cool tools in this video.
Great video and professional work on the wiring. You see so many youtubers who just hack and splice wiring together - so glad to see you repinning and reusing stock wiring & colours. Congrats on the successful engine start!
DP is sounding a bit sour with all of these BMW jabs. Maybe he secretly wishes he bought one!
Yeah who doesn't want a driving timebomb 😂
@@Notthetimeforit How is this a "ticking timebomb"?
@@xMoodsHD 😂 you either drive a BMW or you want one don't you.
lol
@@Notthetimeforit Yes, i own several and that makes me curious as to why this is a timebomb. Please explain.
I use DWS06 on my interceptor, best set I’ve ever spent money on 🤙
Fantastic! Congrats guys! That wiring would of put me over the edge for sure. Keep it up!
This m5 wagon project and the MotionAutoTv evo wagon project = best build on youtube soo far 💪👍
One step closer to a rolling M5 Touring. Excellent and very well done.👍
love this swap and the styling for that generation of wagon
Always pull the fuel pump fuse before starting a fresh build. Crank it and wait until the oil pressure is up, then double ignition cycle the fuel pump. Then try to start the car, and wait at least 1 minute before you touch the throttle.
We primed the engine before starting it but didn’t film it
One of the best build series out there now. Thanks Paul for all the help.
Great video! Amazing what you 2 have done, in love with both cars 😍
The airlift tool . Another fine product from the Doc Johnson line of pump products !
Peasant mechanic tip of the day - You can make a power bleed kit using a bike pump and a football inflator needle, just jab it into the fluid bottle neck and it self seals. Makes going gearbox and diff oil on stands super easy.
I believe the LS has the cool feature of putting the key in the door lock, turning it to the unlock position and holding it. Which will roll down all 4 windows and open the sunroof. And the same goes for when you put the key to the lock position, it will roll all windows up and close the sunroof
every day there is a new speed academy video, I know it is going to be a good day! I cant wait to see the two boats race!
OK I get it - you've convinced me never to rewire an engine!
Nice work.
Kudos PT for showing how to simplify what was obviously a complex wiring adaptation. This new content is interesting and fans of the channel Im sure are grateful to your vendors like Fixel and FCP Euro for being a one stop shop for a complex swap such as this...By the way PT...let’s see that ultra short haircut your keeping under that cap!😂
I always hit like before I watch SA... this is the way.
Thanks for the video, i just happen to work on the wiring on my side marker; those tools and torch kit are perfect for the job
Wiring harness like a map of the galaxy
AirLifts are immensely helpful tools.
this is the ultimate daily and nobody can tell me otherwise
I really like the detail on the wiring. Usually the videos are like 'I need to do some wiring' *cut* 'and I'm done let's start it.'
I have old style extreme winter contact on my 2000 civic and it fell glued to the road in rain and 5in snow. Other people sliding around at stop lights and I'm like "extreme winter contact baby!"
I am happy to say that I was not able to watch until now as I was working on projects as well.
I need to see a tundra build now
Congrats! I can't wait to see this beast on the track!
Good video. I didn't expect the m5 to be running so soon.
Beast! Great job. Can't wait for the finish product!
Brass pivot pins last long on OEM style clutches. Once you start running more aggressive clutches with heavier sprung pressure plates it will indeed wear the brass pin more than the stainless pin.
not here for some loud cold start. here for wagon.
Thank the gods you've finally bought the airlift! I've been telling you guys for years it's the way to go, fyi use a spring clamp to hold the hose in the bucket.
That is an impressive amount of electrical spaghetti, sirs! The fact that there's probably less than 5 people at the BMW factory that actually know the wiring involved in these things is amazing, rather than the other 5 that just lump the loom in there pre-wired. That's job security!
Great work sirs! And excellent call on the LiquiMoly 10w-60, that's the best oil for these S62s period. The amount of wiring/coding is the worst part of an M5 wagon build in my opinion, and you guys are doing it right! When this is done it'll be an epic car to purchase, and if you ever sell I hope you get a lot of $$$$
Love the M5 wagon build!!!
Epic build, making a classic BMW
You guys should do a GT tour with these once complete with a few competitions along the way. Obviously reviewing the cars as you go along! I’d love to see some shots of the Canadian motorways along the way.
One of the challenges on the GT tour could be stopping in a city center along the way for a “popularity challenge” buy getting random people to review the car and give personal opinion on which they would rather have for 6k + mods? As someone is obviously over 😂
Daaaaaaamn PT!! Dave wins the “reliable” award but I’m liking the BMW content.
Another fun and informative video in this series. I really hope that when this is all said and done you can do even more like these :D
Man they have built some pretty nice cars
Thanks for your video!!! but you should blur the background with all your high value car we can know where is yours shop. Thanks for continuing the best car restoration/mod chanel!
3:47 neat attachment on the torch
Oh my, I heart just stopped when i saw all that wiring you have to do!!
Good job PT!!! that wiring looks like a headache but you made it look so easy. good job making it look clean and oem. can't wait to see the finished product.
The progress! Love the wagoon content.💙💙💙
What an achievement! Congratulations!!
Moving to Conti tires this summer!
I’m a huge Toyota/Lexus fan but they really need to improve their wiring harnesses. It’s the biggest headache on my LS400.
bros. you can put that air lift suction tube right in the coolant bottle. that's what i do. good job on the wiring using the terminal tools😏 i hate wiring. nice video💪
Great job gentlemen and even a better taste in cars. Wagon FTW!
In my experience the S62's cooling system has an amazing self-bleed. No vacuum necessary. With other BMWs however....
Nice job fellas! 😎👍
Welcome back to the 12k luxury sedan and wagon challenge
so freaking great!! my favorite build!!
Awesome!! Always so detailed. When I do a swap I will for sure check this video
That's one cool ride be built
Awesome build! Also love a good wagon build.
If you take a nut that barely fits the hose of your vacuum coolant filler. Drill out the nut so the hose fits snug. You'll have a cheap weight to keep the hose in the bucket
Great content guys!
A car enthusiast's wet dream
So pumped up for that first start ! Right up ! I really like this build, in fact the 2 cars are so complementary. NA M5 wagon that never existed and SC Lexus with a touch of vip style right from Japan. PT were you hiding the wheels with that new continental tire ? I spotted reverse mounted bolts, Augment Wheels Company ?
well, he did put in a style 21 aka throwing star in the previous episode, so...
@@JuanNugraha71 I think I missed it somehow, so much things to watch with so little time ahah, thx for the tip I'll get up to date
DW06 is what I have on my BMW X3 M40i!
That thing sounds fucked up in THE BEST OF WAYS , sounds like a monster I love it !!
Hooked a friend up with some contis after seeing Dave's tires on the Tundra. :)
Looking forward to this episode. The first start on a m5 wagon
I died on that startup
Well done guys.. Brilliant job
Nice!! Amazing wiring guide and systems configuration...:-)
I need one of those motive fillers, and brake bleeder one too
I can’t say for sure, but if that start up is any indication, DP is gonna get his ass handed to him. 💪
Can't wait to see this ripping in the track!
You guys make really great content!
I take off strainer on hose and have an old valve spring slid over the hose end to weigh it down in bucket.
The MANN filter comes with gaskets and a crush washer
thats a good milestone you've crossed, congrats.
I think this sounds worst than a open header honda haha but awesome to see it started! Pretty cool how the community has ways to make this swap easy!
blip the throttle with the open headers!! ya headers!!
Way to go, guys! What an impressive swap. Keep up the great work! Are you going to be lowering the wagon?
Epic work guys
