this is the car that started the conversion side of my business, and rip to DZ you had a great vision and I'll be happy to keep the car maintained and on the road
M54B30 is what im going for in my 89 318i i purchased earlier this year! Got alot of work ahead of me as im not the most mechanically minded. Worried about having to change the diff and back end as I heard thats pretty important. RIP to your mate DZ as well man, sorry to hear.
Great conversion for the series 2 318i , thanks Damian was a good dude 🙂, just leave the rear end in to start with, we even ran the 4cyl gearbox in this one too
@@Grooty79 I'll have to keep you posted with it! Ive heard the rear endis a bit flimsy and could be at risk being torn off since its double the power and torque? I have heard the gearbox is fine to leave but i think i read the flywheel has to be changed?
@@giordano3570 I've been building fast e30s for just under 10 years and if your a good driver and understand how to not hurt a car you will be fine, I have seen 300hp put through the little diff and not break
I agree, I think with this car a set of nice headers and some small cams would of been a better option for street duties, the car was built for track but sadly my never see track work ☹️
Probably 15rwkw, for the $$ better off doing a small set of cams and a nice set of headers, m54b30 cars will do 150rwkw ish with a ecu flash, first mod we do on all cars is aftermarket ecu

@@Grooty79 I appreciate the comments and experiences man. Awesome you can get away with those stock parts!
Good job! Like from Ukraine ❤ Writ my please R15 or R15?
Nice car.
ITB definitely not worth for a street car. Electronic throttle and disa make it way more drivable on the street.

RIP to your freind btw
thankyou
Great car! How much power do you think the ITBs add to the m54?

Thanks for the info 👍
