      Yeah having that air hammer man and a good compressor... would have made me changing out my S10 shackle bushings so much smoother. Those things are a #%@&$!

    • @joshthebavarian
      @joshthebavarian 7 лет назад +2

      I used a BMW Specific Tool for Subframe and RTAB Bushings, But that air hammer made them look irrelevant. I also cannot perform the Reinforcement Welds myself (I went with AKG stuff btw), and this just shows how streamlined something can be when someone can handle all aspects of the Job. Kudos Alberto!

    Another well thought out and well presented video. You really are a good watch. Great for Adam to share his space with you. He must really rate and trust you which is a credit to you, and good business sense for him. Can't wait for the next one.

  • @paxman809
    @paxman809 7 лет назад +1

    Youve got it backwards, the rear swaybar actually reduces grip, and adds response.
    The way a swaybar works is that it actually reduces traction on the inside tire, and overloads the outside tire, resulting in more rotation.
    If you were building the car to turn fast times at a track, and keep the rear end planted, you would remove the rear swaybar.

  • @macelius

    Good idea to reinforce around the front bushing ears, cracks tend to start at the ends of the welds and travel around the ear tubes.

  • @davidsjaunakais
    @davidsjaunakais 7 лет назад +1

    Hi Alberto, wanted to tell you that I've been drifting and e36 with 511whp for three years now and the problems I ran into after the first two seasons were that the SUBFRAME itself starts to crack, especially the part where diff front bushing is mounted, so I recommend you to strenghten the subframe as well ;) and the old mounts for the rear trailing arms were cut so that you can align more camber in. And one last thing, my persnal experience was that running without the rear swaybar makes the car very unstable, for me I'm running no swaybar at the front because of wisefab, but I have the biggest of the factory swaybars at the rear. Good luck with the car ;)

    • @Z0neDrift
      @Z0neDrift 6 лет назад

      Yeah, running no swaybars makes the car really twitchy.

    These videos on the bmw have been really helpful. Im gettin a e46 that ill be turnin into my proam car for drifting but ive never been a fan of eudm cars so i kno like nothin about bmw's ive had nissans n toyotas my whole life so ive been like strictly jdm. But i heard about the rear subframe issues on them so these videos have been super helpful learning how to fix the issues n with which parts. Urs looks sick btw i love the black/white combo n looks like the perfect setup for me to use on mine. Keep up the good videos Alberto. #bigboost

    @christyhoward483 5 лет назад +2

    Can I ask about how much did all those parts run you? I will be looking into buying and E36 M3 and will be going turbo so i will need to reinforce the rear like you did. Great work man. Build it with no corners cut.

  • @zerotohero7449
    @zerotohero7449 7 лет назад +23

    the lower control arms are intentionally weak, so in an accident they take the brunt of the accident and don't damage the subframe, diff, or floor.

    Alberto, Ask condor for the metal sleeve inserts that have the same small hole front and rear. They emailed me some time back now about a revised set they made that had smaller holes in the front because with the e46 they made the front holes bigger. I Installed the smaller inserts and it made the whole car tight again. Hope this helps
