The BMW E36 is a popular platform for drifting due to its rear-wheel drive layout and relatively lightweight body. With a little bit of time, money, and know-how, you can transform an E36 into a capable drift machine without breaking the bank. Here are some key points to consider when building a budget E36 drift car:
Choose the right car: Not all E36s are created equal when it comes to drifting. Look for an E36 with a manual transmission and a rear-wheel drive layout, as these are the most suitable for drifting. Avoid E36s with automatic transmissions or all-wheel drive, as they are not as well-suited for drifting.
Suspension modifications: A good suspension setup is crucial for any drift car, and the E36 is no exception. Consider upgrading the springs, shocks, and sway bars to improve the car's handling and stability. You may also want to add a strut tower brace to increase the rigidity of the chassis.
Brake upgrades: Drifting puts a lot of strain on a car's brakes, so it's important to make sure yours are up to the task. Consider upgrading the brake pads, rotors, and calipers to improve braking performance. You may also want to install a brake master cylinder brace to increase the brake system's overall rigidity.
Engine modifications: While it's not necessary to have a heavily modified engine to drift an E36, a few upgrades can help improve the car's performance. Consider installing a cold air intake, exhaust system, and ECU tune to increase horsepower and torque. You may also want to install an oil cooler to keep the engine running cool during extended drift sessions.
Safety equipment: Drifting can be a dangerous activity, so it's important to take safety seriously. Consider installing a roll cage, racing seat, and harness to improve the safety of the car. You may also want to invest in a fire suppression system to protect against the risk of fire.
By following these tips and making the right upgrades, you can build a budget E36 drift car that is capable, reliable, and fun to drive. With a little bit of time and effort, you can have a car that is ready to hit the track and tear up some tires.
I bought my 1998 BMW E36 328i for $800 back in 2018. This was my first drift car that taught me how to drift. Slowly building this E36 to be a budget drift car was such a fun journey. Thanks for watching everyone. Make sure to like and subscribe.

great video and a huge inspiration. Thanks dude
Thanks willii! I appreciate it man.
so sick bro i feel like with e36s evryone talks bad about them but they are great cars. and they come with decent power so all u really need to do is just fullly gut and u will be movin lol. love the build bro plan on building a 36 soon.
Thanks man! i love them!
Love Your video Man...nice car i hope get that Car soon heheh ...Gbu bro
Thanks man!
was the m52 completely stock throughout this? No additional modifications besides the one shown in this video? So the rear-end was pretty much stock besides springs? I am amazed if all that was done to this car was shown in this video because it is a very capable drift car with very little modifications. I want to get into drifting but I feel as though it's too expensive but seeing how you slowly did the mods and upgrades to it makes the cost seem a lot lower. I also loved how you weren't afraid to drive that car and really use it. Awesome video, I loved how you put it together and seeing the car come together.
Hey man. Yes it was all stock for the most part. Got lucky with buying a good car! I have a full playlist on this build.
@@jspeedracing like you said whatever you payed clearly was worth it because around my pets it’s rare enough to find one nvm a clean one lol
Thanks for sharing! Can you do a tutorial on how to drift?
For sure man!
is this open diff?
any inside with doing a fully custom wiring harness? I ripped everything out and trying to start car on MS Ultimate. Doesn't crank at all. Everything lit up tho and no smoking or errors.
Starter just wont click. It is from an EWS setup, so 2 contacts + Power + GRND. Do i need to setup both contacts with a switch?
Make sure you have power and the power trigger to the starter.
I remember this from a long time agooo!
You’re an og timurs!! 🙏🙏🔥
