The DEFINITIVE e36 vs e46 DRIFT CAR Discussion. A Guide To Which Is Best To Build and Why.
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 09. 2023
- In this video, we discuss what versions of the 1992-2005 3 series are the best to build and why. We lay down the facts on which cars are the most reliable, make the best power, and what’s the best bang for the buck when building a drift car.
Obviously there is much more to the discussion and we could talk all day, but these are the BIG points to hit on and understand.

A tip that a lot of people don’t know:
You can use a 92-01 Toyota Camry ball joint as a trailing arm bushing replacement. It’s a sealed spherical bearing and it only costs like $20. Fits perfectly in an E36 or E46 trailing arm pocket. Part number K200786. You’re welcome
Nah this feels illegal to know, crazy lore, thank you sir
I'm so fkn confused at how this would work....are you referring to the upper and lower control arm bushing on the trailing arm or the actual trailing arm to body bushing ?
@@minzahhh1
Trailing arm body bushing
Put in a Google search for “E46 Toyota Camry RTAB” and it’s the first thing that comes up. Plenty of info on the forum
@@minzahhh1if you google the PN he posted, this looks dead on the E46 M3 ball joint for the upper and lower control arms on the rear trailing arm. This isn’t a crazy life hack as the aforementioned M3 ball joint is about the same price when you buy the Lemforder made part (which is the OE supplier).
@tass2001 yeah control arm to trailing arms it makes sense but the way he said it "fits perfect in the trailing arm pocket" anyone who's owned one would assume the trailing arm to body mount is the "pocket" he's referring to
48 mins of why e36 is best car
You missed the part where he said no e36 even comes close to e46 m3 😂
Its because its so good 🎉
@@stephenmurray9881yea but base model vs base model e36 takes it
@@willwarren304 looks aside the base 330 e46 shits on 328 e36...
The best one I should look for is a 328i right
You guys in the US have it real good! You only have to give a lil bread and butter to get an e36/e46.
In Germany the 325/328/330 are costing about 12k to 17k. For one in decent condition.
I just got a e36 325is for 1300 dollars with only 120k miles on it 😂
I have had an e36 m3 for 12 years.......current e36 prices are just dumb
Current prices for any vehicle is dumb… motorcycles included
In germany (Where E36 exist like sand on a beach) you pay like 42k$ for a M3 coupe with 270.000km considering they are basically suspension/ engine fked after 120.000km. They all act like they have the 💩 whilst only having💩. This goes for the 323/325/328i too you get them for 10k with 250.000km and also RUST is a problem on these especially in germany
I've been trying to sell me 318is, "one of the worst models" for like 2 years
@@michaelparrish6401the r6 jumped 3k in 3 years. Sold mine for 6k got it for 3k. It was also a 05 raven with 10k miles. Shits crazy
Same in France, 10 years -> ×10
Here in Europe prices of E36s and E46s are unfortunately rising exponentially: a 318is in great condition with a rust-free chassis and an healthy engine is gonna be around 5k (obviously they can be much much cheaper in worse condition)
It’s way worse In denmark
Rust was the main killer of E36 here in Norway. I still remember when the E30 was cheap. But they have gotten expensive years ago and same with the E36.
E46 is starting to climb in price to. I think E90 are the go to in Europe.
It has to be a 6 cylinder base, stronger drive train.
If you could get a hold of a 325D or 330D and swap the engine that would make sense to.
couldn't care less about the conditions but they're just going up ffs
@@scottex. If you're talking about the conditions of the cars i think you're wrong.
The better conditions the less you have to do.
@@scottex. I agree if you're talking about the engine, because you can swap it if you want, but if the chassis is rotten to shit then it will be a lot of work, even though it is a lot more doable on an E36/46 than a jdm car
Just a note to add about the clutch fans, MAINTAIN YOUR MOTOR MOUNTS. Clutch fans don't fail unless your mounts do. Learned this the hard way after signing up for a drift clinic 4 hours away from me right after I bought my e36. My day ended two hours in.
03' 330's had 6spds too btw! Factory ZF's
Yes sir
What is the 330 6spd transmission called?
@@chelseadenofa
Your BMW vs SChassis video is what made me look into a bmw chassis when I knew NOTHING about drifting. Bought an 05 325i for $1,500, drove it home, and started drifting with it bone stock. Spiraled into the SBC swap madness it’s become. I tell everyone you’re why I have a bmw lol. It was sick to finally learn from you at the class at Kilkare as well 🤘
You guys are really good together, great info will be making this decision in the next year or so, Thank You!
Thanks! I asked the last time and you said it was otw!
Hell yea, Did not disappoint
Price-wise e36/e46 are starting to cost almost as much as e9Xs. Will be interesting to see if we start seeing more of those...
This video is fire 🔥 just helped me out a lot when getting my first e36. I’m looking to get into this as a hobby, and have some fun. Thanks bro for all the info! 😎
didnt take notes but i'll 100% remember this for when ill buy an e36. Loved the video
Your bmw vs s chassis video is what made me buy my e46 when getting into drifting. Later skyrocket to an sbc swap, but regardless. It was great to finally get to hang out and learn a lot at your class at Kilkare as well. 🤘
This video was very informative. Been building an e46 drift car myself and I feel reaffirmed. Congrats in Monroe btw, I went the last 2 years- it's always a blast watching you go full send!
This has been one of the most informative videos I've watched about E36s and E46s. I bought a 318i a while back thinking I could turn it into a drift car but have since bought a 328i to replace it. After watching this I'm glad I did
I love my e36 328 and I wish I had not sold it. This confirms why I loved it so much. Thanks for the video
shout out corey ellis from the haze drift team for getting the dorman rebuildable driveshafts to be a thing. $600 for a brand new ZF driveshaft with swappable Ujoints and stronger all around with a warranty is a hell of a deal. also perks of e36 M52 is how tuneable the stock ECU is. im on 3 seasons of 11psi of boost in mine on stock ecu, pump gas and just studs and a fresh stock head gasket
Thanks for the video!
I really appreciate this video, i have a e46 but it is 1jz swapped. I will definitely attend your drift school whenever i get the chance.
A few years ago I got a non running 98 323is for 1200, sold the full drivetrain for 1200 and then got an LS for 1200. Plan to run a AR5 trans from a slingshot. I’m hoping to be in track next summer! Yes I know I probably could of got it running for cheaper and already be on track but I’ve always wanted an LS NA build.
I agree with what your saying about buying the right spec. I bought a worn 325i for 3k cause it was manual with a black sport interior. After 3.0 liter swapping it I realized I’d need a zf trans just to slide it around in the dry then I’m spending all this money to turn it into a 330 when I should’ve just bought one. Oh well live and learn I guess
Bought my e46 323i in 2019 for 1700 only because the other variants at that time and even still are going for 5-9k in my area for beaters. I’ve done all of the subframe repairs/reinforcements, PSM arms, angle kit, coil overs, with plans of trans and diff/axles swap, hand brake next. Then later on put a super charger on it while keeping everything as factory as possible for sake of reliability.
Thanks for the video, glad I bought a e46 328 for my daughter now, I learnt in a e36 328, suffrage will now come out because she's a rusty boi, congrats on the FD 🏆
Thank you Chelsea💪🏼✨ Suuuper helpful stuff!
Great info. I'm from the Philippines and I have a 316i. I turboed it then problems happened when the ECU got wet. Next engine was a M50b25tu and I supercharged it making around 300hp. It hydrolocked in a flash flood. Finally I bought an S52B32 and also supercharged it and bought everything M3 like the drive train etc. It was very expensive since I had to ship parts from the USA to the Philippines. But now I'm happy with a reliable daily driven 400hp car. I don't need more than that.
“E36 Sedans and coupes are the same just have different body parts”
Kinda like Chelsea and Chelsea 😂😂
You guys keep killing it as always.
I love your channel been watching for a while
Great advice from both. The 330zhp was one of my best loved cars ever. The e36 is easy to mod but the e46 feels better out the box. If I can add 2 cents... My clutch fan and AC was a bottle neck so at some point better cooling happens once you remove the exploding clutch fan. My e46 m3 that I bought in 2006 is still in my garage... Best chassis ever
So helpful. Thanks for this!
Great video, thanks for the content,it brought back memories 😅
No better dude for this vid
Miss ya being in the PNW man
The service Chelsea(s) does for the community is insane he doesn’t keep shit secret just gives u all u need to have fun and be competitive or whatever we need that back in the community
You posted this video at the greatest possible time for me😂 I’m stationed in Germany and have a 318 and have been at a toss up between building a little winter warrior or getting something else
Potentially just building a nice sim so I can stay out of trouble out here lol
I think I’m going with the sim honestly,
build a car when I go back to the states
You can swap 330 trailing arms into an e36 and they're the same hub size as m3, also infinitely cheaper. Also 330 automatic left side axles (which are basically as strong as m3 axles) are same length as e36 and don't need the bigger stub shafts. Just did this on my 325 😂 but it fucking rips so I'm happy with it.
Hey Chelsea, about the diff ratios on the E46, you can also use X3 E83 differential that comes in the X3 25i and 30i which are 3,91 and 3,64 ratio.
Glad I picked up and auto 328 a few months ago. Been a good daily and I already have a manual swap from a m3 that I got for $1200 (zf, clutch flywheel, driveshaft, diff, pedals, everything)
I bought a 330ci m-sport for 3k last week and I want to get an e36 soon I love both platforms and I think they are amazing depending on who you get it from and what the state of the car is in, love them so much
You two covered most everything, e36 shocks towers are definitely a issue! I tell everyone I meet that decides they want a e36/46 to replace entire cooling system as first mods! What I am starting to notice is some oem new e36 parts are going bye bye, discontinued. Like S chassis so many oem parts are discontinued now. I also don't see e36 in junkyards as much anymore which is a bad sign, they are disappearing.
Ah yea. Front and rear
Great video... Loads of knowledge, thank you. I love my 330 e46's... 1 is a modded (bodywork mostly, carbon bits) 03 imola red msport (ZHP) Saloon (sedan) 128k miles, with the 5 speed.. That one i've been messing with that changing bits since i bought it 4 years ago.. It's a great car... Then an old mate was moving back to Poland, so i bought his Sapphire black 04 330 msport vert 112k miles with the 6 speed... Mint car, hasn't moved since i bought it 2 years ago lol.. Nearly had a Techno Violet e36 M3 many years back. I just couldn't justify paying 10k for a car that had rust on it.. Yep, luv ma beemers.. I'd have more if i had somewhere to park them :) Am in the UK. They weren't too expensive to buy when i bought them. But they've both basically doubled in price since owning, not that i'd wanna sell them.. I don't sell anything
this was actually super helpful
Pumped to see this upload as I now have my pandem E36 coupe 😂
Got my e46 m3 3 years ago for $10k Did the smg to manual swap in driveway with CAE SHIFTER. Love this car.
Well I love them both. But I have an E46 with a complete E46 M3 swapped into it. It WAS a 330ci and as far as anyone knows from the outside it still is but the guts are all M3. I love it!!
This is a super awesome video.
So much great info
I've been trying to figure out what bmw 3 series will fit me best.
Thank you 👍❤️👍
Curious about 330i and 530i ??
I bought m50b25 engine about 5 years ago for my e36 which i have for 5 years also, used it for "spinning" and drifting 2019,2020 and 2022. I know of 2 previous owners who used it for skids. The engine had a skimmed head and i did a port and polish job last year. Getrag gearbox ,323i auto whole subframe with diff(3.64). Both engine and gearbox come a long way in terms of being bashed around on limiter. I broke that gearbox last year and the engine broke 1 piston this year january. But power wise and response it really did the job. Plus i have e36 m3 euro custom exhaust manifold. Not trying to boost my channel but feel free to check it out for yourself.
I never had a clutch fan, im using a 318is electric fan and never had an issue as long as its on high speed, and my country is hot. Winter here is like 13 degrees Celsius min😂.
$700 E46 325, $2000 LS1, $1000 T56, $500 driveshaft, $1500 ECU, $800 tune, $700 mounts. $2000 suspension. Most fun and solid combination for E46
I wish I could find any of those parts for near those prices.
What about that swap kit
Where are you looking for a 325 that isnt completely rusted out or wrecked for that much. Serious question
@@braedonwalther8564 I live in Houston so no rust to deal with. They are shells all over marketplace for under $1000
@@1411MEDIA thought so, can't find shit under 4k in the midwest that isn't rusted out or clapped
I have no interest in buying a e36 or e46 but this was still cool to see you brake down the differences
Chelshe’s comments and facial expressions made this long video entertaining to watch the whole video.
Great video!
in 2016 i got a '94 boston green 325is 5 speed 190k miles for $1000
been to two track days and 7 drift days while still a daily driver
drivetrain was always solid. Only snapped two axles (snapped orig then replaced and snapped during test drive swapped again now its good)
now 2023 its getting a M60 swap since the old M50 head cracked, def from multiple times I overheated it.
M50 doesnt really have power and torque so I made up for it with speed and really hucking it
Id do it all over again
Currently have an E46 323i that I'm building up to be a "daily driver."
M50 manifold swapped it, swapped it to M54 ECU/fuel rail/filter/evap canister, put a M54B30 cam in it, etc. Tons of headache. It does run awesome now, but has been a pain! I'd like to turbo it so that means 330 drivetrain.
Seriously, if you're going to modify an E46, do not buy the 323. Just don't. You will eventually end up with mostly 330i stuff. Buy the 330i. This man speaks the truth.
(And as someone really missing my E36, E36 > E46, hands down)
Ahh this is great. Saving this 👌
3 years of sending it e46, i knew about the subframe so welded some cheap plates made diy vince bar strut bar list goes on etc ... 3 years no frame damage yet 🤞
My 1997 M3 has 330,000km on it, never had any issues. Just usual maintenance. I don't drift it but I definitely rip on it/redline it every time I drive it. Sollidddd car 👍
I was ready to have my 330ci trashed on but it wasn't too bad lol. I dropped the subframe myself so plates plus paying a buddy to weld them in cost me just under 200 bucks. The car came with some nice catless headers and I got a tune from Jordan for sap delete and that kinda thing. I also swapped to the m50 intake manifold just to clean up the engine bay. Same friend who welded in the subframe plates had an s52 swapped 328i and said the 3.0 m54 with headers felt more powerful according to his butt dyno. Just glad I got all this pre 2020 price insanity. Overall it has been a great car, I just wish I got the opportunity to drive more.
I did it all wrong. Started with a $1700 E46 325i with getrag, swapped in e36 328i m52 motor and ZF, lol 😅
2023 - September ZF trans found in a junkyard for $340 ..there is hope. plenty of 328 e36 and 328i/ci and 330i/CI e46 in the yards. until I snag them all. haha cant wait to mount up the ZF to my 1jzvvti Is300 and get back to ripping. good info in this video though
Ive always been a E46 M3 GTR fanboy. But then I bought an e36 and it's now my favorite car. With that said I have gotten to drive a 435i I think it was when a buddy of mine worked at a dealership he let me test drive one. Never the e46 but I will say this regardless of what anyone says. I still dream of that day I get to drive a e46 M3
The m3 version of the e36 was so fun and I can't imagine the e46! Uhg I can't wait!
Couldn't decide, so just decided to get both E36 and E46. :D
Meanwhile in Europe we have lots of fun with barely whatever we find rear wheel drive. I had an E34 diesel as training drift car full stock for years and it was the most fun and best teacher for under 200€. USA drift scene feels like the same cake with another taste. You definitely just can't avoid going big and overmaking everything, in general 😂 love your drift scene nevertheless. You really know how it's done. Cheers from Spain!
Man i miss the days of wrapping a 328 around a tree drifting then going and picking up a running and driving 328 w days later for $600. Ive owned i think 7 of them amd i loved them all
I just got "serious" drifting in the past year and I have a 318ti cali top that came with a 2.8 swap. I absolutely love it and it's a little weapon on the track however the axle issues pushed me to spend $3k on a 328 and retire the ti.
I have had a few! The e30 6cyl setup is the way
Bro, I just got done with a 4hr adventure picking up a clean E36 sedan and come home to this video 😂
Thank you for this
Makin me feel old mate... Been in the game since 06 had my share of basically every "clout" car as the kids would say now-a-days. I was blessed to go to college in Japan and marry my Japanese wife and own all the legends and so on so forth. Seeing all the price explosion now-a-days kills me!!!!! "paid $3700 for a RZ 99 FD, $7200 for a 91 R32 GTR" As a new home owner and a kid I have a miata LMFAO! OMFG I hate it! But I still get my track days in and crush it. I always loved pushing the under dogs beyond what people think is capable. Best part, I was a instructor for Extremespeed and Speedventures for more than 6 years so I don't even pay for track days anymore I just coach when I have the time haha! Good content mate, we're old AF and wrenching on these is getting harder by the day, but keep on keepin on my dude! Good stuff. I won't do another E36 tho... Fkn-A I hate wrenching on those things! It's not the motor/drivetrain it's all the other shenanigans that the body/chassis harness integrates with >_< and I just don't wanna deal with em hahahaha!
Love this content
Great info... nice freeze frame at the finish 😂😂😂
Lucky i got my e36 in late 2017 before prices started going up. 95 325is auto for $650, complete 5 speed swap from a 328 with a zf320 trans for $800, and a 2.8 w/ 120k miles for $600
Hey, that gold E46 you show when you switch to that topic... that's mine. Like, mine was sold on Cars and bids twice, and the first listing photo is in this video. It now looks like a pack of Marlboro lights with the livery on it, and it's a full-time dedicated grip car. Small world!
If anyone's curious, it's got a fully rebuilt M3 rear end, all poly/delrin/spherical bushings, chassis reinforcements, m54b30 from an e60, 330 brass guided front brakes, all steel lines, a ZF 5 speed, IRP shifter, 11lb flywheel and JB Racing clutch, deleted SAP, AC & washer reservoir, Power pulleys, billet oil pump, baffled pan, no interior, hard mounted buckets, widebody, Apex arc8 18's, hoosier A7 295s, SLR circuit control arms w/ bump steer kit, Silver's neomax 1 ways, Yellow tag steering rack with Ujoint instead of guibo, treehouse lollipop fcas, shmeidmann headers, dinan intake.... And everything else that I haven't mentioned has been touched too. It's been uhh... pretty built :) She rips though. Originally was a 325 but there is not a single 325 piece left in it. Both of the times it was listed, including the picture used in this video, are can be seen on carsandbids.
Biig bmw guy 💪.
It was fun comparing USA to UK knowledge of the 36/46 while watching this.
Mad how much knowledge you have, mad that I can keep up to some extent 😂
Never knew about the secret smg sauce 🤯
Some things I would add from my personal experience from rain filled UK.
325 with a 318 diff swapped (medium output cups cut and welded in and shafts) in is a perfect rain machine.
This potion goes amazing with the following flywheel/clutch setup.
M20b25 flywheel with the back machined down to save weight and avoid the sump. E30 325 clutch, e28 323i throwout bearing 👍.
E46 power steering will always leak. Don't even bother trying to fix it 😂.
E36 RTA pockets and subframe mounting points are turning into a similar situation as e46 floors now. Ripping out because of rott.
If wife Chelsea could put more effort into the "cut" at the end please that would be great. didn't even slap the arms tohether, poor effort 😝
Oh, don't forget the purple tag e46 rack for all e36/46's 👍
I bought my 330i freshman year of highschool, been drifting it with a welded ever since. Bone stock, overheating till the rad cap blew off. Still serves its purpose to this day. I run 265/30’s in the rear and can keep up with any of the “stock-ish” cars on track. Buy a 330.
Love the knowledge you give us guys. I do have a drive train question for you. I bought a basically a bone stock standard 350z factory lsd without vdc. Just had a touch screen and speakers. And after waiting a week to buy it, when I got it home same day i put on a bell race work diff brace and mcr shift knob lol. And you know z's on have one rear diff bushing. I planned on just doing z1 subframe metal inserts and nismo metal bushings or delrin. I dont see me swapping subframe bushings for quite a while cause its plan is a street/ weekend warrior with some good angle but with daily drive ability. Not concerned about nvh tbh. Would you say that would be a solid setup or soften the diff bushing to poly since it does have a brace?
E46 330 auto vs manual have oddly enough have different axles. Auto axles supposedly stronger. 330 come with bigger brakes. Not that that matters much for drifting. E46 M3 have factory widebody. So fitting angle and bigger tires under it is much easier.
Can you please do a video about drift suspension set up. Like you did the solid axle on the fox? Like going into detail how what changes effects different things like grip side bite and so? I know some. But I’d love to tap into your yrs of experience of setting up these cars.
I have a E46 M3 here in Germany. I had taken it to Mork Wenz Performance and they found cracks in my subframe. It was bound to happen!
When the world runs out of E36 and E46 it's going to be time to start running C-Classes. W202 and W203 230 kompressor cars with the M111 put out 193 crank ps, they are very cheap and come with forged internals, easily boostable. A bit more finicky with the electronics than an E36 though. When I save up I hope to do a drift build on my turbo diesel W204, which I expect to be challenging (it is a 1585kg or 3500lbs boat)
For us, it is cheaper to use diesel plateforme to drift because they are cheaper than gas one and there is a lot of them.
230k can be a a good one but I heard that there is something with the power delivery on early throttle in order the have a smooth power delivery. If that it fix, it can be fun, I guess
The e36 can have the subframe ripping out problem, too. Just a few weeks ago i sat in the passenger seat of a road car, it has never seen a racetrack or drifting and i was like 'something feels not right back there'. His answer was 'one side of the subframe mount has nearly rusted through and the other side is rusty, too. That's not uncommon on E36s that are driven through the winter year after year'.
Man I wish I could talk to u more man I got so many questions lol ,but I got a 00 e46 323ci. But I put a 2jz in it with a zf 5 speed trans I did all the fab work my self at my shop sun frame braseing etc ,I did got bc coilovers but I’m a lil worried I did got billit Gwebo with a one peace drive shaft I did do all bushings in the rear but man I do appreciate all your videos man
Myself I got a E46 320 (170hp) to drive on the snow. Welded diff, angle kit and that's it. Can run 3rd gear on ice tyres on a lake. Lots of fun :) Live in sweden so we get lots of snow which makes it possible to have fun with the weaker engine.
And during summer I have a R33 with RB25DET NEO.
Also, for anyone that has a 330i e46 and wants to start drifting. Do not even attempt to start drifting it without some kind of modification to the oil pump nut/sprocket etc. The best thing you can do is get the upgraded pump from SLG and call it a day because your oil pan gasket is probably leaking anyway.
Chelsea I've been watching you since I was a kid and love your videos... But after a video like this all I keep thinking it welp... now the cheap e36 ti is a thing of the past...
Great video as always,but can you tell us something for z chassis?
Fire video you always keeps it real do you know the differences between a e36 328i and a m3 engine?
Crank piston cams bore
I remember buying my second E36 for a couple hundred bucks and a handful of weed lol.. I painted it Kubota orange, extended the stock control arms, then had you on my door shortly after... Man have times changed
37:32 My E46 328i is 1260kg with medium weight reduction but a few of the guys I drive with have very lightweight 330i's at aroung 1020kg to 1050kg. That would be 2250lbs. This is extremely light and when you have 231hp (crank) they are plenty to drive 3rd gear tracks. If you do some NA mods like headers and cams and a tune and go into the 250-260hp range at this super light weight you will be way faster than any 350Z.
E36 m3s are a tad more fun to drive than e36 😂 both look dam good. Really good info, great listen.
Auto E46 had clutch fan stock and Manual E46 had efan stock, I've always swapped the OEM efan for the clutch fans on manual cars.
318i e46 as a daily and some town drifting for 2k is it good? Or should i just go for a 328 e46 for 3k+? Or should i just go for a e36 ? What you think of 5 series ?Love this video! Watched it like 10 times now! Im in Sweden btw
Could you go into depth on the M54b30 out of the 330ci e46. I have a lot of those and wanna know if it’s worth building N/A or just turbo or swap a different motor. I’ve heard different stuff about the m54b30 that it’ll blow up after 400hp?
You should also include the e30 m8. Thanks for the video though. Greetings from Greece.
Extremely nice video.
Got a E46 325 after giving up on the beat marketplace posts when it came to even just 330 (and zhp) built the motor, full turbo kit with E85 and all bushings. Never had an issue (May be from the fact it’s 68k miles?) and shreds at the track. Still have to say my M3 E46 way more enjoyable stock hands down
We did get a 323ti in Europe but they are very rare . Have never actually seen one. The e46 323ti was a lot more common . There’s is plenty off 4 cylinder compacts around tho and cheap
Mileage is such a good point, and I always try to beat it into peoples heads lol.
50K miles in the wrong hands can be waaay worse than 200k miles in the right hands.
man I wish this video existed 3 years ago. would've saved me a lottttttt of money and time 😅
In Ireland we used E46 320d drive shafts as they are solid and they fit straight onto the E46 330s
I was just asking this question on reddit sort of. Like if you could ignore the engine package and separate the front and rear geometrys whats the best setup! Gonna comment again when soak up all the knowledge drop.
E36 front e46 rear subframe that’s reinforced. But they are basically the same
E36 class with Mr.Chelsea and Mrs.Chelsea, make sure you guys take notes, quiz next week
I bought an e46 323 because it was $400 and I wanted a wagon. Already did the rear reinforcement. B30 swap. And axles
Thank you for making my 328is manual worth even more. Drift tax!!
Bought an e46 316TI Compact yesterday with shitty N42B18, but already with rear diff lock in 168 housing, cold thermostat, front and rear struts and many other pieces of tuning. I am not likely to drift that, more for circuit usage, but anyways compact steers very damn good!
I sold Chelsea my e36 328 few years ago didn’t know anything about him until a week later 😂
I agreed with Chelsea.
