Looks beautiful 🙌🏽 should you replace the rear trailing arm bushing & ball joint on the knuckle? That should fully Make the e46 m3 suspension dampen impacts in the rear a lot more and feel more planted. What do you think?
Thank you for understanding how important it is to STOP quickly as well as GO quickly. High performance isn't about how fast you can plow the car into a stationary object. One of my favorite moments watching Matt Farah reviews other people's rides. One owner rattled off for several minutes about his engine and power mods. As they were approaching a sharp turn, Matt Farah asked, "Great. What about the brakes?" The car owner's face goes into this deer-caught-in-headlights look. "Brakes?" Matt Farah's facial expression was priceless
BBKs are beneficial for track applications. Why? Because of heat dissipation. It will offer no real braking upgrade for stopping better for the street. Yes it looks nice. Yes you will get more pedal feel for smoother modulation. But is it worth the $8k for a new set on a street car? It's hard to see any value in that.
about shocks being gone after 60k miles. I bought my non-M E46 at 208km. 10k km later the shocks were gone, so I replaced them. Found out this still were the original ones. I must say: they held up pretty damn good!
Good job! When I saw you use the purple beake lube I cringed! I've been doing brakes since 1988, was taught to use never sease then, and by my local shop more recently, but things change so I bought that stuff in 2019, used it on my 2002 bmw 325i, my 2005 chevy suburban and my 2000 chevy astro van. First issue was last year driving the BMW and the front wheels started to what seemed like they were wobbling, never experienced that ever before. Crazy! Scared the crop out of me! I had also put tires on it about a month previously so I took it to that shop and asked them what they thought was the problem... turns out the calipers were seased and the rotors were overheating causing wobbling... insane. Then my astro van developed the same issue. That was it, off came that purple shit and back to never sease... Did the van, then the bmw... and checked the suburban and sure enough they were almost seased to. Garbage product... at least up here in Canada. But great to see the change with you clients car! Have a great day!
Hey nice vid I recommend investing on impact driver for those rotor retaining screws. I got one after coming across the same issue as you did and I’ve never had a problem since I got the impact driver.
26:30 Oh man those little buggers have driven me nuts litterally (Or I guess bolts lol) same problem happened to me on mine and I had to get some "easy outs" which were neither easy nor did they get it out. Then finally my friend did what you did and it came out. I just run without them now.
Hey man.. can you put up a list of the parts you got for the vanos rebuild? I saw you jus put up the website but I’d love to know what parts you got. Also links to like all ur parts you got in this video??
Bro i had a question i have a 2006 bmw 535 front was shaking when i pressed on the brakes so i changed rotors and brakes all around then i did the front calipers i also replaced brand new battery after i started to get my brakes locked up after driving on the freeway any ideas why this would happen. It releases brakes after pulling over for a few minutes.
Great video as always!!! I also installed coilovers on my e46 today..yet everything clunks and thumbs now😅 any ideas of what i should check first? Thank you👌
Hope you all have a great weekend! What do y'all think about how it looks now?
Very tasteful upgrades. Caliper to wheel clearance is prefect.

Great upgrades. Replacement parts better than OE is the way to go! Especially, if you can find them pre-owned. Nice work guys!

Great work jason and your good lady. Loving this. 👍🏼🍺
Thanks Iain !
Very useful and great content videos, I love these channel.
Thanks for watching!
Is it just me or those rotors should be for left side of the vehicle?
Great content and nice brakes!
Yes, both rotors facing in the wrong direction.
It's the fins inside rotors that matter. For cooling
Definitely on the wrong side.
Great video bro
Thanks for the visit

I wish this guy was back in California
👍👍 awesome as always
Thank you!
More great work Jason !
Thanks Steve!
Tqvm I'm learning something today
thanks for watching!
I want those brakes too.
I think it would look awesome with a square wheel setup...get a rear csl set wheels for the front
20:10 Low key you're right 😂
Excellent Job bro 👌
Thanks man!
Nice vid! Do you have a recommendation for a pad setup for stock calipers with csl 345mm rotors? For street use i would say.. thx
The commentary on this video is by far the best😂
Lmao 😂

Check and make sure the flywheel is bent
@@SippinLipton wtf
KW's are the best when stock, but when you start lightening the car it's starts getting too stiff fast.
I have a question my 2003 330i transmission light came on . And I think it's on limp mode. Any suggestions what can be the problem?
were you able to use the standard caliper carriers?
This brake kit can fit on 330i too?
How did you learn to do all this?
what kit is the big brake?
What about kw v1?
Excellent👍
Front 355 mm or 380 mm?
What size are the rotors on the BBK ?
Hi, where is your shop in California?
no longer in california
over kill with the brakes just looks better
is it just me or do those rotors look warped
atleast the first one you did
Something doesn't look right with the rotors you are removing from the car, aren't they supposed be a floating design for the m3
bro i need 540i videos
you'll be happy to see an upcoming video then ;)
you'll be happy to see an upcoming video then ;)
Fye
Все есть и электрогайковерты и очиститель тормозов, а вот ударной отвёртки у него нету, так ещё и диск тормозной поставил не на ту сторону.
Why is this car so rusty? I love my e46 m3 weekend car!
That is a really old M3 its not relevant anymore.
