Great video a few of my most noticeable upgrades are, Upgraded anti roll bar Purple tag rack/ solid coupled Braided brake lines 3.38 Diff Made a world of difference on my E46
Thanks for another great video, can't wait to install the new parts when they arrive! Little tip to save $20, the black painted version of the same aluminium water pulley is currently on discount, and looks a bit nicer i reckon ;) Keep up the good work!
I just bought a 2004 325i and drove it from Charlotte NC to Beaufort SC and it rides super clean...ac, heat, windows, sunroof all work with new tires...few cosmetics to be done but for a 19 year old car it's in great condition...definitely plan on getting that water pump and the pulley thanks for the video😊
Thank you for this great channel. I have the brass bleed screw and magnetic sump and diff plug bolts. I plan to implement your other recommendations. Great to see another Aussie E46 lover, who seems very knowledgeable indeed. Keep up the great work. I am a fan and have subscribed to your channel. I am looking into the Stuart water pump as it was not clear if they have a model for the 2003 BMW E46 M3 Convertible? I have just started conducting work on my E46 and look forward to learning much more from your channel. Thank you.
Dont forget a 5 dollar can of black spray paint for a go fast stripe on the bonnet on the boot and down both sides........10 km speed improvement from bonnet 5km from boot and 15 km from side stripes
Look forward to, and love your 5 minute Fridays, I have just received the Stewart water pump and aluminium water pump pully, they look a great bit of kit, well worth the extra moola, Cheers.
I dont know how its in Small Britannia, but in the U.S. the BMW wheel and the BMW rotor are magnetic, so all you have to do is to apply the wheel to the rotor and its magnetically stuck together, then put in the bolts. Its a lot easier than using the studs that go bad. I have never had a single E46 bolt go bad in the past 12 years but I had a lot of wheel studs go bad on my customer cars. Wheel studs is an actual downgrade vs magnetic wheel and bolts.
If you see this comment i.thank you.. i have 03 325xi 5speed,m54b2.5.. i would like more torque, low an mid power more than anything.. also want to run a header, jus one an other be stick manifold To produce the subaru sound the unequal length headers sound.. the dont make em.. so in my mind that could achieve such?

i'd probably add a solid steering coupler to replace that 20 y/o rubber one on that list too
Tbh I can't tell the difference. But at least I know it'll never go bad.
@@LochyP really? thats odd. i could tell straight away. have you replaced other steering components on your car?
World of difference with mine. But I think it’s because I was driving it without knowing the damn rubber disc was cracked and had lots of play.

Thanks Mike for videos have a E46 coupe great cars 😃
Lets go team E46
The wheel stud conversion is essential. My wheels get stuck on the rotors and I cant tell you how many times I smashed the hell out of my fingers.
Do you have a video on how to install the upgrades you mentioned?

Wheel studs is an actual downgrade vs magnetic wheel and bolts.
how does that work when most wheels are aluminum and aluminum isnt known for being magnetic
@@thevideogamer0mg99 The cast is casted arround the iron center of the wheel that attaches to the hub.
Thank you cheers from 🇨🇱
Good choices
4:26 do you have it in your e46? And can you show in any episode how you install it
Any tips on a Disa valve upgrade?

Nice video! Just curious on how the SS exhaust sounds? I’ve seen your installment videos on it but I haven’t actually heard it.
Hi fren I have a 2002 bmw 325ci I change wheel and speed sensor and still getting abs light , what you think is my problem
20% increase sounds like a risk to plastic overflow tank? anybody know?
just means it flows through the entire system faster, not going to explode your overflow tank
