Taylor messing with cars is always a great watch

Taylor has seriously good taste. E46 - yes B3.3? even better Manual swapped? .. perfect

Is anyone else starting to appreciate the V2 channel more than the original AutoAlex channel? 😛

I feel like Alex and Taylor is the perfect mix for a channel like this. And Taylor turned out to be an amazing presenter! I love that he's getting his own videos like this, brilliant choice 👌

Taylor is such a natural on camera, could watch this bloke doing his weekly shop and it would be entertaining (and possibly quite long...).

Always look forward to seeing Taylor, genuinely one of my favourite hosts

Taylor is an absolute legend! Keep this content coming

Whoever thought of having a second channel just for DIYs needs a pay rise! Great idea, love these vids

The way Bruno walks in.... Yeah its got a Diff already mate🤣🤣 He knows his stuff!!

I love how much Alex has embraced this freedom with his new venture to push not only new channels but also new talent (oi oi). Alex is huge for the community for such a small man (who also slips the clutch).

Taylor's enthusiasm for rare BMWs just makes me so happy

And that's how you perform exorcisms on an old BMW and remove the devil.

After a terribly exhausting and depressing week, I cannot stress enough how much this made my mood better. I absolutely love Taylor, he is such a laugh!😂 Definitley keep these videos coming, he is a great presenter as well!

I'm really enjoying the fact Taylor gets the chance to do his own stuff on the V2 channel, long may it continue!

Yes! We heard Taylor drop the F bomb... amazing! Always wanted some swearing in the show because they work on cars, it's comes hand in hand

should call this channel autotaylor, that genuinely is no disrespect, its proper class seeing taylor getting the platform he deserves! :)

He defo needs to make his own videos even just vlogging his day to day stuff that we never see! Collecting cars and selling them on and preparing the unit etc, he would probably hit a Mil before Alex from doing hardly anything but being himself lol

Sits on couch, sees Taylor hitting his head into the tire, hears 'plunk', laughs like hell, 'plunks' head into wall behind him 😂 Great video 👌🏻

Love it when you guys just film working on your cars and give little updates on the collections and stuff. Keep it up lads!

More Taylor as the leading presenter please! Love his videos :)

"AHH MY NEM IS BRUNO" got me REAL bad, my eyes are juicy hahaha

This is becoming Taylor’s channel and I couldn’t be happier about it

I am a convert from the original channel, enjoying this channel so much, especially the fact its delving a little deeper into the mechanical stuff. 👏🏻 congratulations lads on another great venture and shows the hard work paying off, Bravo 👊🏻

ENGINE/GEARBOX The B3 3.3 engine is based on the S52B32 engine from the US-spec E36 M3 3.2 with 240 hp. The cylinder head and the single-VANOS system have more in common with the BMW M50 engine than any M-engine, with a regular M50 intake and hydraulic valve lifters. Alpina increased the bore to 86.4mm as well as a longer stroke (94mm). The cylinder head is tuned in traditional fashion as well a new exhaust manifold. Extremely light pistons as well as a newly developed crankshaft have been used in conjunction with a new torsional-vibration damper, sustaining permanent revs of up to 7200 rpm with ease. The engine produces 280 bhp at 6100 rpm and a torque of 335 Nm at 4300 rpm. The new B3 3.3 is also very frugal, only 9,9 litre/100 km in mixed driving conditions The standard gearbox is a Getrag six-speed unit, optionally a five-speed Switch-Tronic box is available.

Anyone else got autoalex uploads on their calendar? For me its not just a video more like a routine!

Sounds like a possible contender for your next Nurburgring visit. This time with machines you all have had some time to put some love into. Make it a yearly thing - a pilgrimage

The only thing i would add to these videos is a little more description for what each thing means or does… Gareth is incredible at it when hes on camera, he just quickly says what an LPG conversion actually is for the people who love the channel but aren’t as mechanically in the know… I suspect theres alot of people like me who are really interested in the auto world but are not coming from a background of knowledge… like i said, Gareth is the perfect example every time hes called in to help…

Love these videos guys but please please make them longer! You could honestly show a more in depth side to the mechanics and it would be no less engaging and it would be just as entertaining because of how good you guys are! Plus it’s really annoying waiting for another upload to only get 15 mins 😂 Oh and Taylor Tuesdays and Taylor Thursdays should defo be a thing 😂 Love you guys ❤

8:40, truly the toolbox of nightmares 😵 Scrap that, it's just a box, because it has no tools in it...

Brunos entrance was legendary too, shoutout BDS

What a beautiful B3, can’t believe someone would put LPG on one! I do love an Alpina, I grew up with my father Alpina B12 (E32) back in the early 90s. Also my father was hoping to buy an E34 B10 Bi-turbo before the B12, when someone wrote of his E34 535iSe, but the salesman was to lazy to pull it out from the back of the showroom :) I look forward in seeing what happens next to this project. Keep up the good work. I love V2

Taylor is an absolute gem of a human

Bruno's gona titivate it with a laptop and say "Oh my name is Bruno!" And the it'll be 300 bhp !!! ❤❤❤😂 love it

Thanks for the shout out Taylor😄😄😄 yeah we have done a few manual conversions now😬

Taylor and Bruno talking torsen and plated diffs... I like!

10:43 - lmao, whoever added that sound effect deserves a cookie hahaha

Looking forward to pt2. Taylor is such a great presenter, nearly as good as Alex 👌🏻❤️

Anyone else notice the 911 which is the one Alex wants?

Taylor was the best addition to autoalex...the guys hilarious

Loving these Taylor videos. Such a genuine, likeable character and a good mix of silly humour with car knowledge.

More Taylor & Rory videos as extra’s from time to time! Incredible Watch!

2:47 - "Even the engine's melted away..." While showing the front part of the F430 Spider... 😂😂😂

Like the relax approach of Taylor just doing bits on nice cars 👌

BMR in Kent have not converted E46 Alpina B3’s from auto to manual! BMR in Crawley have converted 3 E46 Alpina B3’s from auto to manual, more than anyone else in the UK!

Love watching Taylor attempt mechanicing

Taylor’s bmw collection is amazing

Alpina B3 3.3 Touring Nr 041 - 1/147 cars, and it's mine, sitting 3 meters behind my back on the other side of the wall in my E-series garage unit. I have to congratulate and welcome Taylor to the world of Alpina ownership. Alpina newer did yellow Bilstien on the B3, they suppose to be black with white Alpina label on them, also the springs have wite Alpina text on them if they are from factory or Alpina OEM. Alpina B3 comes with a special developed chassie from Alpina for the E46 version. Yes the Alpina B3 3.3 rear subframe are from E46 330d, the Diesel subframe have 1 extra reinforcment bracket welded in compare to the gasolin version of 330i. Both upper and lower camber arms are the same for all E46 even Alpina and M3, the driveshaft are the same for 330d and 330i, the trailing arms are they same for 330d and 330i but not for the M3, the M3 arms even have M3 logo in the cast iron. Alpina did not use any M-Sport things for the B3 3.3, so there is no M-sport wheel or M-Sport suspension or M-Sport sway bars on Alpina B3 3.3. Even the front wishbone arms is the standard none M-Sport from Alpina factory as far as I know and have seen so far. Since Taylor have uppgraded shocks from Bilstein most likly B6 or B8 I recomend uppgrading the front wishbone and M3 swaybar in front and xd or xI swaybar in the rear if he wanne stay true to BMW OEM and not to much 3rd part....It will make the car so much more stable in the corners. Again congratulation to joining an exclusive comunity Taylor🙂

Yet again please please please can we have longer videos I really enjoy these and I learn something new very interesting 👍

‘We’re just gonna quickly and gently pop that in the bin’ Got me. So funny

Lmao Taylor makes all the funny noices taking the gearbox out

Love the “bonk” sound effect when Taylor hit is head on the tire 😂 great little edit ❤

I love Taylor and Rory. More of you as a double act!

Amazing! Im excited and cant wait for the next part! Please do bin the LPG asap.

Put the old unwanted bits (as Marty said on 'Mighty Car Mods').... "IN THE BIN!!!" 😉👌 🤣🤣🤣 😎 🇬🇧

Hi Taylor, my brother-inlaw had the Aplin convertible. It always puts a smile on my face every time I was a passenger. Good luck with your project.

Can't think of a better chemistry trio to be fair. Just flows and doesn't look staged or awkward. Dont ever sperate

Quaif's ATB is a torque biasing diff, same in principle, similar in design to the Torsen. Great for fast road, and spec racing applications. Plated diffs are lovely, but a whole different kettle of fish in terms of setup and maintenance.

I know Alex has had a bad back but surely Taylor’s will start hurting soon under the strain of carrying this channel

Taylor has been a great addition to the channel. Also love this, I have the B3S 3.4 and love it!

I did not see that coming, damn! Nice buy man! Stoked to see more of it!

Love the E46 design. Specifically the pre facelift. Very good score Taylor! 🏆⚡️

When Taylor was taking down the transmission I'm sure that his Saturday night telling people to shut up and making funny noises😂😂

Ah, after a long, hard day, nothing beats a new upload from you guys

Love your videos guys, always make me chuckle. Is there a nail/screw in the offside rear or is it just a stone? It's a good job you have a tyre sponsor!!! Keep up the great content. 👍

Nice looking car 👍👍Looking forward to seeing your work on this one Team ❤️❤️

BMR Performance Ltd, Turner Hills, Crawley, Sussex are responsible for multiple ALPINA B3 manual conversion. Early 2018 I first visited them and there was a B3S 3.4 Touring converted to 6spd manual there… Come ‘22 group of us went to the Ring and the same B3S Touring & a B3 3.3 coupe present, both 6spd manual conversions by BMR Performance Ltd! Also responsible building two E39 M5 Tourings, so OEM you’d swear they were built by BMW in Dingolfing!

I love bmw probably more than any other cars and i love nerding about them but i've never been into alpinas. i thought they were just more luxurious versions but apparently I'm very wrong. After looking up the specs of the 3.3 I was completely fascinated. I love NA engines and now I'm completely blown away by how cool the engines in every alpina are.

I think you guys should do a beach body weight loss challenge. Depending on how much you lose depends on how much you get to buy and modify a car. Then drive to a nice sunny beach somewhere in the summer.

Made that look easy although I used to enjoy working on my e36. Got to love BMW engineering.

“Oh my name is Bruno”😂

I had one of these, using it as a daily was a nightmare 😂 did about 6mpg and used £20 of oil every month on top of that. And yeah the auto box was shit. Good move doing a manual swap. Good car for the collection definitely

Really enjoying the more technical workshop vids. Also think this one feels like an insight to when Taylor was a trader.

awesome video, Taylor! you got yourself a very cool ride

Great seeing Taylor having a go. 👍

“My name is Bruno” 😂😂😂

Heeeey BMR is my mate Martyn‘s BMW specialist workshop in Dartford! I’ll let him know you’ve given him a mention, cheers Taylor!

You can never get too much BMW content, looking forward to this one. And when are we getting the big 993 reveal?

love the AutoAlex vTaylor channel at the moment

Just put this stuff out uncut and be shocked at how many of us will watch the whole thing from start to finish because watching you guys is easier than dealing with our own projects. :)

What an amazing modern classic, the vehicle is quite special too

Not Taylor building a German 350z, 300hp, RWD LSD, Coupe! Gotta love it tho 👌😂

I wish I had a friend like Taylor, he's awesome!

Loving the Tay Tay content lol. He’s a good lad.

once again another video ive loved because of taylor! love the car taylor your certainly a lovely man that i always enjoy watching your 100% ment to be infront of a camera! thank you for the videos!

I actually love Taylor he is actually just so genuine to watch. No homo 😉

This is third Mechanical 4:43 channel I have seen separated from the main channel and it’s just as good as the other ones

Quaife are in Kent Taylor, BMR are in Sussex. Both amazing outfits! Love this conversion 👍🏻

Every car show should have a mechanic

Alex looks like he's presenting art attack on his car vertical advert .😂

10:42 that random casual bonk sound killed me 😂

Has AutoAlex V2 just become Taylor’s channel? If so, I’m not mad at all - great content!

Great choice Taylor. Lovely car!

What I love about these second channels is they have more subscribers than alot of others channels that have been going for years.

This should be main channel content, but I get not everyone enjoys workshop videos.. keep it up stuff like this would make it the best second channel of any KZfaqr 😂

Love the Taylor videos 🔥🔥

Im expecting from now on any time Bruno fettles one of your cars, that you do a cutaway to Bruno saying: "Oh my name is Bruno" lol

Great episode lads, I look forward to each episode and just started listening to the full podcasts on the way to work, I absolutely love the bullshit and rambling, I can’t make any comments on Taylor as his head is big enough at this point 😂

In my experience, transmission failsafe on the E46 and E39 are usually caused by moisture in that big round electrical connector going to the transmission.

Even if you don’t see him Rory is actually very funny. Taylor is always a joy. This will be a good project!
