you have inspired me for my e82 125i build here in eu(128i in the states) Instead of an e92 m3 inopted for this project as building stuff fullfils you longer than just buying outright. Your videos show how awesome of a platform the e8x/9x chassis is and really got me started in the hobby. currently on the fence on going widebody. but sorting out the handling and mechanics atm. I have gone for 4-way adjustable st XTA plus coilovers. semi slicks from nankang. due to the lack of power i have gone for f2x mperformamce calipers with nx72+ pads and tarox slotted rotors with braided lines and race fluid.full m3 control arms in the front; on the rear i have only swapped the upper front link for M ones as it is bushed differently to the oe ones. Next will be a sway bar set from h&r and rear sibframe bushings and a lsd. for both of which i need a lift first 😅 the thing basically mecanically will be a NA 1M Got in way to deep but really enjoy it. Thanks for the motivation and keep up the amazing work
I did all this 2-3yrs ago on my E92 335is. Trust me it changes the car completely. I’ve never been in a car that handles the road and communicates with me the way it does…and I’ve owned some pretty capable cars.
So good! I have a 135i for about 5 years now and you got me in the process to 1M convert it. I’m going to do it the right way as well and slowly but surely will try to do your same setup here as much as I can with minor changes. Great video! Best 1er on YT IMO.
Absolutely love this build and the series on the 1er, it gaves so much more value because it’s build from scratch But if you want to make it handle even better, If not already on there, put some m3 arms on the front with millway street bushing in there and indeed a front sway bar. I think you found the perfect balance for the rear with bushings without going to hardcore
You have literally brought this car from the dead! Excited to see it with the new wheels, metal flares and Carbon roof! Super impressed with your attention to detail and all of your videos 🤙
Been following since the OG m2/supra days and so much of your tutorials/vid have helped me work on my m4. It has been great seeing you and the channel grow, I still think you should have a bigger following especially being one of the guys on youtube who actually does the work himself nowadays most others seem to outsource everything. The builds have been great as per usual, you're killing it man 🤟🏿 king of working on the whips in white shoes 😂
Man this thing is SICK! The complete motivation for me getting my 135i back in June! I’m loving the car so much & can’t wait to start doing my own build! Glad you love your build man! Has truly been a ride with this one! Much love! ❤️ Also I see you have a new rear seat delete, links? 👀
I love everything you're doing. And no matter what u do, It's your car, your build, your dream. No one else's to trash talk etc. Anyone doesn't like something, Oh well, Don't talk smack go build ur own. Anyway, I have a question. So did you realize how much bigger those studs would have been?!? Like how long they are?!?!?!
Next time you do hard lines and they are corroded like that, just bend the clips, then you can simply unwind the soft hose. But i also learned this hard way after snipping my long hard lines off, and they were not sold pre-bent in Europe, so i just ended up re-flaring my remaining brake lines, replacing the snipped section with cupronickel lines.
another amazing video btw i just picked up a 2012 135i w/o engine and trans i could find anything on it do you know how hard it would be to put n54 in it or would the n55 just be easier?
It’s very nice, I definitely should have mentioned it more. I mention it in the follow up video I posted. Definitely going to be running that in my m3. Stiffens and directs the shifter quite a bit, much better feel
Amazing build! I just don’t get it why you fit shitty EBC Red pads man… they are garbage, you will bake them the first street session.. I have Endless MX87 on my BMW, they are amazing, temp range 32-398 farenheit, no squeal, disc friendly. They are the golden standard! Cheers!
They are street pads brother, and they are perfect for that application. Good enough bite, low dust. I have G-Loc pads for track. Ebc are not track pads
I forgot how insanely good the 1M'er sounds my guy. Now it has the handling to match. Awesome work!
Thanks a ton!
@@ThicWhipscraziest 1M ever
Man this build is INSANEEEE! I’m happy for you & I’m glad that we got to be apart of the experience. Cool asf bro you’re goated ⚡️
Appreciate it!!

Mans really built a 6 figure 135i skreet car! And I must say....WORTH IT! You are the epitome of clean builds done RIGHT my friend
I appreciate that!

Jon, this car is going to be legendary. You CANNOT sell this build.. ever!
The quality of the video, install, and parts speaks volumes. You’ve got the most badass 135’s on the street bro.
Thanks bro

your builds hit the spot every time

You are the definition of attention to detail. Definitely my fav BMW channel. all the way from the 328i to this. WOW
Appreciate that

Amazing build! Loved the video. Love your attention to detail! Excellent job 👏 I'm sure the handling and ride are like night and day!
I’m an Audi S4 owner but definitely appreciate all cars and you’ve done a great job 👍💪
love your videos man, been watching since your 328i days and you've really come a long way!
Cant believe it’s already been two years🤯love to see the progress💯‼️
Beautiful car. I’m building a ls3 t56 e46 hardtop convertible right now. My next car is a 135i. I love them. Yours is perfect.
This whole 1m clone project is mechanical ART 🎨 at its finest big ups to you bredda 👊🏿💥💥💥
This build is coming out so good
Man this thing is SICK! The complete motivation for me getting my 135i back in June! I’m loving the car so much & can’t wait to start doing my own build! Glad you love your build man! Has truly been a ride with this one! Much love! ❤️
Also I see you have a new rear seat delete, links? 👀
Thoroughly, enjoying this build. Keep up the good work.
Glad you enjoy it!
S65 ! here we come ! Yay, finally
Maynnnn have I been waiting to see this thing!!!
Absolutely stunning build in every way!! Love it!
Thank you so much!!
This build is 🔥. This is motivation
it really doesnt get any better than this. really out did the 135i platform and set a standard.
Such a well thought out Build! Just Clean !
Favorite video so far👍🏻👍🏻

One of your best features 💪🏻👍🏼
The perfect 1er build! ❤
I'm definitely doing an LS 1er soon.

Good stuff man. Great build.
Watched that twice.. Brilliant 🤩
This is crazy. Congrats bro🔥🔥🔥
Dream car without a doubt
Great job, love the build!
LOVE THIS!
Absolutely insane 😍🖤
Surgically Clean!
Beatifull work 👍🏻
At 21:20 your lower rear control arm is upside down and since its tapered where it mounts to hub it’s actually on the wrong side of the car
Do the Hotchkis front sway!!
There’s levels to this
Keep the t51r mod, sounds insane!
Cool build. I thought you had to torque control arms under the weight of the car so they don't bind.
They are tight not torqued. I still have to drive to the alignment shop.
Thanks be to God
Just speechless 😩😍
Need that paint code for the calipers thing is sick!
It's about all the stuff that you can't see 🔥
Built not bought baby 💪
Because I also plan to modify my E92 335 like this
I haven’t been following this build for a while - did you do the steering rack yet?
Not yet
@@ThicWhips given how much you liked the M3 rear end and the Ohlins, I reckon the steering rack will blow your mind…
Besides the bushings is there any difference in just the subframe on its own?
Yall making me want to get into debt!!! 😂 Great job!
Bro…
Bro….
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
You got me wanting to build a nice toy. 💯💪🏼😎
Go for it!
can you make video about coding abs for brake upgrade?
Do the interior next
I already love the interior.
Do I need to purchase the shock absorber specifically for M3 or do I need to customize it?
HARD!!!🔥🔥🔥
How is the wheel hop when you launch?
Thats crazy you got the same wheels as me to
another amazing video btw i just picked up a 2012 135i w/o engine and trans i could find anything on it do you know how hard it would be to put n54 in it or would the n55 just be easier?
stunning Build respect for that👌🏼 check out the new Maxton Rear Wing, could be something for you.
greetings from switzerland
I see the Powerflex shifter bushing there, you didnt comment on it. How does it feel and are you considering putting it on the E92?
It’s very nice, I definitely should have mentioned it more. I mention it in the follow up video I posted. Definitely going to be running that in my m3. Stiffens and directs the shifter quite a bit, much better feel
Did you order chrome wheels (Classic look)? :P
Greetings from Ukraine :)
👍👍
Good lord. Can I buy this from you?
So sick🔥
Carbon fiber roof next?
T51R mod sounds dope but it also seems like it would get annoying after awhile. Lol.
I'll take this as a sign to buy a 135i
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hey brother great video. The link for the 3DM Rear Trailing Arm Ball joint Conversion Kit. Please help
It’s linked in description!
I want to do this to my 335is and carbon roof
Gotta get some silver wheels back on this bad boy
Nice m1 💪
1m *😂
Kinda want to start building an N54 for real 😩
not torquing those bushings at ride height?
Yes, torquing at ride height when I’m on an alignment rack. Bushings are just tight right now, so I can drive to the alignment shop
Get that DI delete setup
Built not bought but lots was bought to build!
Keep the t51r
Super dope
Does this have the E9x M3 steering rack?
No
wassup big man
Suhhh
Rami sary built the first 135 with v8 in the world that was in 2011 i guss
I thought this car was getting the carbon roof and 1M OEM rear panels. I guess not!! More to follow!!
🏎💨
Build my 128i 😭
so basically an 1m?
+1
I skipped some videos. Does this car have n52b30 engine or not?
N54
What a headache… Honda bro
This is actually ridiculous

@@ThicWhips ok. That’s not my experience with them… But if you are happy with them that all that matters!
lol “grip monster”
From 6 pistons to 4 pistons calipers smh.
First
