I just joined the channel and man this E30 is crazy….Long story short I lost my father in February and he left us his 1988 E28 535is and a 1989 E24 635csi….Just watching this channel has given me so much motivation to build these beasts…I’m out here in jersey also I would love too throw these vehicles on your channel lol
sorry for you loss brother, on the bright side you have some sick cars that you should definitely start wrenching on! glad i was able to give you some of that motivation.
@@mikeshiftseveryday thanks so much! I don’t really know much about cars I taught myself how to drive manual in the E28 would you be able to help me with these vehicles or point me in a direction in the tri state area? I’ve been searching for bmw specialist but have been getting shot down
Now that it’s been a few months would you still go M50 turbo? I’m currently torn between projects; either M20 Turbo, M50 turbo, or big motor swap an e30. Or just buy a 135i/335i with N54. Very clean car btw huge congrats.
Thank you brother both M50 and M20 can hold a good amount of boost in stock form in my case I bought this car swapped by the previous owner already so there was no point in putting an m20 back in it so I boosted the m50
wussup bro i mess w the videos heavy! how did you learn all this mechanical stuff abt bmws? obv its similar to mainstream cars but theres also huge differences. i need the info ;(
Been a mechanic for the last 4 years now mostly working on bmws experience is definitely the best way to learn anything but yes forums are helpful at times and also watching videos on the jobs you want to do
360 wheel is pretty good considering the car is lightweight. Prob could make 400 wheel with E85, but rather you drive the car healthy and have no headaches then throwing a rod or cracking ring lands. Excited to see this build come this far and she looks good
I miss my e30s…. I just sold my last one. I had just reinforced the crossmember … did everything e36 m3 suspension bits up front. Billy sports and ST springs… and one night a drunk driver decided to park his car in the highway… I rear ended the crap out of him. Cops showed up about 10 minutes later … they got to him 5 minutes later and he was still asleep. The cop came and told me he found *”BOTTLES”* on the seat. I thought the car was abandoned the whole time. Maybe that was a good thing or I might’ve A-town stomped him with my redwings. I was so heated.🤦🏾♂️🚶🏾♂️
Ngl bro i fuck with how positive you are about it regardless of the numbers she was pushing out
Gotta stay positive bro she stayed together and put out some great numbers for a stock M50
Dope. Probably gonna boost my stock M50 for my drift car in the future. I just want a reliable 300 so now I know I only need about 10lbsb
Now that you’ve thrown this on a dyno, you still loving this setup or would you go a turbo k24?

Congrats man, watching from the UK. Was waiting for this vid! What wheels are you running? Car sits perfect.
Thank you brother & they are Apex Arc8s 17x8.5 all around +20
Just about to finish my build. M54 boosted with emu ecu.. Hopefully get close to your numbers. I bet it feels quickkkk with 360 at the wheels.
How do you like the emu ecu? Ive been thinking about that one, it seems way better then VEMS. Iam on a tuned stock ecu rn, tryna go standalone soon
@@elijaah81 hey man. I have a m54 plug and play emu black and I’m very happy with it and it’s capabilities.
Good numbers for stock motor. She sounds REAL healthy bro
Thank u bro

Thank u bro and yeah on E she would be well over 400 but wanted a reliable 93 map for now
Yo what was the setup here? Stock turbo m50? Decomp spacer/studs?
@@SleekM3 arp studs, cut ring gasket, stock bottom

@@mikeshiftseveryday Thanks man!
Hell ya! 🤤
Do a Dragy 1/4 mile and 0-60 video 👀
Just might 🤔
slap a zhp cam in there. i believe pazi88 has a video on it.
Going to see what I go with in the future but it will definitely either be s52 cams or go with VAC turbo cams for the M50
Why not shrick?
