So here it is, rebuild time for my Boston green BMW e36 328i coupe m-sport which we're actually currently building as an M60B40 V8 conversion, but we haven't got that far yet.
How far have we got? Well... watch the video and you'll find out. Suspension refresh overhaul. let's go.
We've completely stripped everything and we're building the whole e36 from the ground up, completely brand new.
I'm typing all of this, like I usually do, to target those pesky keywords.
Which keyword? The ones that say stuff like, wow that's a great boston green m-sport bmw e36 you have there, is it a 328i? M-sport? Yes it is
Thanks for coming to my ted talk.
Watch the video. Hugs and kisses.

Seen a few comments saying the same thing so I’ll just pin this 😂
- We’re gunna torque bolts up after we’ve let the car settle on its weight a few times.
- We greased the polybushes dw.
Love you all x
The bolts will already be over torqued though… ugga duggad to death
@@jamesbaggaley1460 don’t talk about our ugga dugga like that
@@jamesbaggaley1460 when are you gonna get off that armchair of yours?
2 suggestions:
Do the front strut towers reinforcements and please get rid of those front arms bushes, do the strongflex ones, those suck 😅
And dont roll the car that much with no drive shafts, you will ruin your new bearings
Probably around 10 years ago i subbed for bmx videos as i started riding myself. Amazing how time flies i was 14 back then. Cheers
the video everyone has been waiting for!! cant wait to see it fully rebuilt an restored! :)))) keep at it bro, loving the content!!
Man i never thought id see the day, thought you were gonna pull another datsun on us haha! So glad to see you working on this man, favourite car going honestly so im hyped to watch this build process
Christ I forgot about that car, that’s taken me way back and now I feel old 😂😂😂
*Should never have sold the Z. T'was a sad day!*
It’s a shame that working on your car is becoming a dying art in the UK. These Bruvs wouldn’t understand as they get pleasure from ‘Spaky Studios/Motorsport’ to Stage 3.65 their car, bro.
It's just stupid expensive now that GBP is in the bin, so parts from America / Germany / Japan are now more expensive. Plus insurance hikes are taking the Mick, it's almost impossible for young people to modify anything without a great paying job or parents helping out.
The cost of living being sky high also means people have less money to do cool builds.
It's all a mess and kind of upsetting for the scene
@@muzzman that’s one side of it yes. People now are also so obsessed with attention. So many sorry spastics online showing their self’s driving a rented s4 fartcannon while driving one handed weaving in and out of traffic to impress fellow Northface wearing bro’s (no disrespect to Northface) it sucks so bad.
@14:35 this set my Google speakers off at my gaff 😂😂 I was like what the hell is going on 😂😂
E36 is such a timeless shape, can't wait to see and hear it with the new unit up front
14:35 you started my Google speaker playing the winky winky bum bum song 🤣😂🤣😂
You're supposed to use the grease with poly bushes😂 may be a little squeaky when you eventually drive it
We did !
Bit of wd40 even if they do squeak sorts them out
He did put grease tho
You're living every BMW owners dream. Bottom up resto. Wish i could do this with my e90 335i
Andy: unbelievable Jeff 😂
Yeeeees Boq! Watched about 2years worth of your uploads this week alone, started following you boys after the 90s rearwheel drive video back in the day, same time i was dailying my 1983 mk1 ford orion!! After watching sooo much of you boys this week, im now fully motivated to empty all my savings into getting the Orion build back up and moving...
I done exactly all of these bushes poly about 13 Months ago, I have now just had to weld the diff carrier mounts locations as they cracked and fit the reinforcement plates, this is mostly due to years of shoddy mounts taking the slack and the new bushes putting full load on the old mounting points, so long story short if you haven’t already….. fit the boot floor reinforcement plates. 👍🏻
Amazing to see these machine back on all 4 wheels 🎉 can’t wait to see the engine in this thing next !! Mental
Bqr videos makes my day 100% better
nothing like seeing a bush get smashed in,
This must give you motivation to finish it,the parts look beutiful get her ready for summer lad love from leeds
SO pumped for the return of the coupe! Ive been desperately waiting to hear the V8 crank up 😄
Hammer wins the award for favorite tool
Love seeing a BQR video in the sub box!
Looks sick. I'd be tempted to sack off the V8 and go with an M54B30! You'd have it running in a few days.
Hahah no way, need that v8 noise in my life
phuck dat. A Boston green V8 E36 looking like that is going to be sick.
10:40 Andy’s giving the most menacing look I’ve ever seen😂
Literally been checking your channel every single day for this update well in lads smashed it as always 👏 cant wait to see that v8 getting dropped in
Actually laughed out loud at the hit marker when you 🍻 , small stuff like that is why we love you boq
I'm so glad you guys are doing this car up the right way
Anyone else’s google start blasting out Winky Winky bum bum? 😂 Makes me want an E36 so much, great work boys! Long time subscriber from Melbourne 👋🏼
So gassed you finally got going on this project again. Such a sick colour and with the v8 itll be such a monster
Was really looking forward to the Mac and cheese build
Can’t wait to see it flying about Cheltenham
So happy to see this thing taking shape, been following the whole build and I can’t wait to see its final form it’s going to be a fucking monster
Been waiting for this vid for ages, this has given me the motivation to do my e36 M3.
Nice one boys! Absolutely smashed that out. So when are we seeing more on Andy’s Volvo?
Man like boq back with a banger 🤝
Feel like i’v been waiting years for this😮💨😮💨😮💨 excited for this beast
love seeing the motivation keep up the good stuff, hyped to see the 36 ripping
You doing this gave me the kick to sort my e46 out and I got back on it’s own weight after 2 years
I got the same bolt kit for my e36.
100% worth the price.
It’s a great bit of kit.
You guys should make some BQR Garage or BQR motorsports tees! 🤩
Andy I'm not even messing lad you set my Google speaker off with that Winky Song hahaha
Quality set-up that Boq. Loving the music choice in this video too 👌🏻 it's a little bit couunnttrrryyy
Had been waiting for this for so long man, so glad you kept going!
Man after my own heart - fitting bushes with a mallet and just going full ugga dugga in most of the bolts 😂 looking forward to seeing it done
Looks mean as hell! Can’t wait to see more of the e36!!!!!
Just think of the noise 🙌🙌
finally e36 content!
Can’t wait to see it done good work
Glad to see this is finally getting done !
Buzzing for this
wow that's a great boston green m-sport bmw e36 you have there
Good vid, BTW you can use the same rose joint bush on the bottom (e36 m3 has it like that from factory and is an upgrade on non M3)
I know I found this out after I ordered the polybush version haha. Ah well
I actually learn so much from watching these videos
This is the great content and car build I subscribed for. Can’t wait for the v8 content also I’ve got a m62 build in the works myself 😅
Pulled ya finger out boy! ' On ya! Lovely job now get that fire breather in there.
Didn't even show the mac and cheese 😢💔 can't wait till this is done gonna be unreal!!! 🤙🏻
When this bad boy is up and running you should get Clem to take the rolling shot like the Cupra and add it to the wall
solid days graft lad
You need to go visit Adams Compound, maybe drift some laps in a JZ E36
looking clean as!!!
finally poor baby been sat there lool your thumb deserves the bang lool
Looks nice lads put the work in and pays off big time
Sooooo hyped to see this back on the road, forgot how nice the colour is jeeeheeeeez
This was the video we all needed to see!
Finally!! :) Keep on going, this E36 is my favourite car on the channel
I will have some more progress uploaded on our v8 soon.. just installed another ramp so have more time to work on it.
the colour is so nice
Loving the new parts man. Please put the drive shafts in tho 👀. Not good for the rear bearings
Nice to see it’s being worked on again. Remember when you said “I want it ready and driving for summer”?😂
I never said which summer 😂
@@boqer123 summer 2025😉😂
Looks loads better great job
Need to head over to USA again with all the lads!!
Just got done doing some bondo on my widened e36 rear arches, excited to watch e36 content lol
Edit: Are you really not lubing those bushes ? Have fun with squeaks lol
Don't understand why you didn't use a support Jack to hold the subframe up from the word go or at least get help to hold it up😅
well done
You triggered my google home 🤣 it started singing to me 😂
That thing is unreal bro 🤙🏼
Very nice lads,
proper winter beater spec
Big turbo, big turbo oh and one more thing, big turbo!
i get 2nd hand motivation from these videos
Can't wait to see this, fully ready to drive, on a trailer behind the Defender, on the way to the Nürburgring.
No torque wrench on any bolt....
@@earnestbunbury2103donut
Torque up later after weights settled on it
Man this thing is going to be tidy!!
That is looking awesome man keep it up 🤙🏼
Grate work glad to see it back on the floor
Also I got unsubscribe don’t no if anyone else had the same problem
You should change lower arm left side ball joint to the same side of right side. Other wise car will drive poorly as one is floating and one not. Aswell i would use bc racing drop links on front.
The video we’ve all been waiting for
@boqer123, why don't you set up an account with your local motor factors as they will probably be able to deliver parts every hour or so, it will also be cheaper.
Looks soooo good
Andy set my google speaker off, now have winky winky bum bum playing in the back ground 😂
I'll be back next March for next video on this beast 😂
My droom om eendag my kar so oor te doen , dankie vir die video . Groetnis
FINALLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Noice boys. It might hsve been mentioned already so sorry to sound like a bellend, but i see you put the 'non-m' droplinks on the front.
Defo reccomend using the droplinks that came with the BC's and mount them to the coilover as per the M3's. It amplifies the effort of the roll bar and makes it toiter. Would be ideal for the heavier V8 when it goes in 🤌🏼
Yup definitely gunna do that cheers bro
Do the same to defender on a Gali chassis!
Nice job dude keep it going!! whats holding in the hubs in the bearings?? drive shafts? am i right in saying your wheels could fall off?
Correct, we kept an eye on it though and it’s back in the air now
No grease?! Mateeee
Where are the bolt kits from? Pups really do with that for my e46
Keen to see it sideways in another year and a half
Love a BQR video 👍 🍻
Still remember when you bought it from Adam, damn it looks goood
Should try and convince rjay to bring jimmy when the engines in/ready for mapping, make him bring a link and his laptop😂
Bad Boy
