Thanks man just gotta get some of the big dents out can’t wait for new graphics 😎

@@TeamSegers Already got them designed and sorted? Keeping the silver base look?

Not yet, I have a few ideas but will start drawing things up this month and aim for the new livery next month but yes I will be keeping the silver base

Thank you, happy new year to you too 🥳🍻

Happy new year and thanks man hard work and perseverance and progression is what I enjoy so hopefully get somewhere one day 😎 yeah that’s definitely been one thing I’m constantly asking myself since getting the car 😂 the thing is I did actually get to drive this car when it was running 10psi and that was a decent power increase lovely progressive boost and so controllable to drive fast which is why I want a boosted e30 in my life 😂 Where are you from ?

The irony of it is that was the exact same thing I said to the previous owner which is why it’s still got the number matching engine 😂 road trip coming soon plus the e46 touring will be making its way into the workshop this month for more upgrades 😎

Hello that’s awesome thanks for messaging it’s always nice hearing the history of cars, The car has been off the road since 2007 and mileage is like 70k I know it’s been dry stored in various places from previous owners so that’s lucky the corrosion hadn’t got to much worse after your ownership I’m not going to rush this build i want everything to be of the highest standards I can achieve, I do now have it on the ramp so more videos will be coming soon Glad to hear you’ve now got a 16v as a replacement 😎

Number 23 Haha yes just in time 👌 thanks that’s greatly appreciated hopefully looking to employ some help soon so that should help speed up some ideas I have for 2024 😎

Haha thank you 😎 yes I’m often questioning my decisions but keeps things fun I guess 😂

Number 21 Thanks man 😎 appreciate it

Yes the E46 compact is certainly you ugly duckling out of the lot, never really understood why they changed the appearance so dramatically although they have increased massively in value (decent m sport 325i) and seem more popular now. E36 compacts are my favourite for many reasons haha thanks I’ve finally found the matching centre caps for the bbs alloys 😎

Number 9 Haha the channel isn’t ready for the Dakar yellow compact yet and neither is my bank balance 😂

Thank you, that’s very kind 😎

Number 17 Hello, thank you 😎 yes I will be attempting it again and can’t wait, just got so tied down with work and was struggling to get the timing right to do it, so what I’ll be doing is another video of upgrades of parts taken from the grey touring and then I’ll attempt it again so end of January. Car has been running faultlessly and used daily since which is typical 😂

I daily an e46 330d myself and i can't fault it, i bought it with a noisy dual mass flywheel. I replaced it with a new one and it's returning 40 mpg just running around town so it will be interesting to see what mpg you achieve on a long journey.

Winner!!! Winner!!! Winner!!! 🥳 message me directly on either Facebook or instagram both my accounts are Team Segers Motorworks 👍

@TeamSegers wow i never usually win anything thank you. I will go to instagram and message you now. Thanks again.

Number 14 If you are lucky this socket set has two 10mm 😎😂

Number 11 Haha yes space is definitely a premium so I’ve got to be creative 😂 I left certain parts like the steering rack loosely on and pushed it out side to get the last bits off it involves alot of struggling, swearing and car pushing that’s for sure 😂

Number 6 Thank you 😎

Number 4

Number 8 Thank you, I’m trying to get myself in a position to employ some help next year either in the workshop or with the social media side of things so I can bring some energy to the channel 😎

They are awesome looking cars for sure 😎 I do like a henna red e30 👌 The very early e36 318is used the same 1.8 16v m42 engine as the e30 318is and then the later 1995 onwards e36 318is went to the m44 1.9 16v That’s such a shame although didn’t S.Africa get alot of the e30 325iX 4wd model ?

@@TeamSegersThanks for the info. As far as I know we didnt get 325iX. I could be wrong. We got the homologation special mtech2 325iS(M20 2.7 144kw evo1 and evo2 155kw) & the super rare M30 333i(mtech1)

I definitely agree with you there 👍 the 6 cylinder engines I feel take away the e30’s nimble, light and fun driving characteristics

... And then BMW South Africa stuck an m30 into one of these in the form of the 333i. 😂 It'd be interesting to drive a cylinder E30. Wont flame it because Ive never tried it. Its an E30 so a win nonetheless!

Wow that is interesting I didn’t know that, I have driven an m30 3.5 converted e30 before and that’s a very heavy engine to put in the front of it for sure definitely noticeable on narrow winding roads 😂

Thank you, yeah there’s just something about a touring that’s just awesome 😎 I had actually bought a mint original 325i silver touring but px’d it for this e30 coupe before the silver one arrived, that car most likely will make an appearance soon 👌

Thank you 😎

The price of e30 tourings are currently low and certainly worth getting one if the opportunity comes up as they will shoot up massively in value as all tourings have become increasingly popular like the e36 touring I can’t find a nice one under 5k now it’s crazy 😅

Haha yeah don’t rub it in that us brits for some reason still uses salt on the road 😂 Thank you that means a lot 😎 upcoming video of a budget winter fun car coming soon 👌

They start chucking salt out when it hits around 4c, I just can’t bring myself to drive mine anymore in the winter. So much upkeep washing that crap off the body and underside 😩

Hello, nothing special about these brake discs just standard ones from local motor parts suppliers

Parts are available FB market place you’ll see the car 👌

@TeamSegers messaged you on messenger pal

It is the most viable solution you are right I had the silver m3 rolling shell first which I wanted a full lightweight track car build, there is an update video coming soon I’ve fully made my mind up and now committed to rebuild the black one, the market isn’t right at the moment for breaking cars or selling them and I’ve got enough cars in parts already 😂

Look forward to it mate@@TeamSegers

Thank you and same here, there was a lot of doubt I would make it home 😂 I will be going back soon for round two 😎

It certainly is a nail but I’ll make the best from this situation and build a fast compact 😎

I fully agree with your comment people can do what they want but like you say for car enthusiasts to watch other cars get neglected it is a shame but I guess it gives other people like me who can’t afford the mint condition ones a chance to own them 😎… and bankrupt themselves trying to save the car 😂 Thank you that means a lot 👍

Thanks for sharing. I love M3s. I hope you get everything sorted and restored. I love your collection.

Thank you and yeah it’s definitely a collection that needs a lot of work 😅 but I’ll get there one day 😎 just one car missing and that’s a BMW E28 5 series so I’ll be looking for one down the line 😂

Thank you 😎 they are a great car from an awesome automotive time for sure 👌

Thanks man 😎 I feel like the most awkward person on RUclips making videos 😂😂

Thank you, much appreciated 😎

Haha I like that comment because that’s the kind of time scale and amount of money I was thinking it will be, yeah there are some dry bearing noises that sound horrible coming from the engine along with electrical issues and a lot more other issues but that will be coming out in the next episode a full overhaul will be happening. I don’t want to cut any corners with this car at all it deserves the best available, awesome I look forward to watching some of your videos 👌

Hello, I do use a rust converter from rustbuster but only on the areas there’s corrosion etc not on the areas of shiny clean metal, and no primer because it’s not normal black spray paint it doesn’t need a primer or lacquer and builds up thick and is very durable. I much prefer it than powder coating because it doesn’t chip or flake away If you meant clean the rust instead of wiring wheeling it back to bare metal it’s because the trailing arms have a rubbery black coating and a wax layer from factory

because they're half a job..I've done this on my Z3 and the trailing arms were caked in rust. So ground them down to shiny steel, THEN apply a rust preventative treatment, then paint or else you're just painting over dormant rust

Hi thanks for the input knowledge is key and always nice to share info for others benefit 👌 that’s cool and its not a cheap conversion to do now a days the parts are very expensive, thanks appreciate the kind comment 😎

Hello, yes it came from an early e39 5 series I can have a look on the pipe I have and get the part number for it if you need 👍

@@TeamSegers If you can find the part numbers that would be class. What made you choose to fix the 184 e46 rather than the 204 one?

I’ll do that for you within the next few days 👍 I chose the 184hp one as it has a long mot which meant I could get straight out and do some challenges with the car and it supposedly needed less parts 😂 the 204hp I want to keep long term so will at some point go through the whole car Polly bushes loads of upgrades etc and make the body work mint👌

I know what you mean and then moan like hell when there’s a big bill for the MOT 😂 a little expensive TLC coming up, just gathering some parts together and then another video coming soon 😎

Thanks and yeah the sound of an in-line straight 6 is awesome 😎 another video coming soon with this car just waiting on a few more parts 👌
