Z3s look so good with hardtops.

You guys should do a full budget/ brack down video (like a big drift hq parts ad) where you buy a Z3 showing what the average sale price is n than a parts list of what you’ll need from drift hq ( prices as well) to build a seat time car like this. So say someone looking at getting into drifting could be like ok I can build one of these cars for under 5k under 10k blar blar blar u get what I mean. So a person could go out get a z3, than save up said dollars head to drift hq get the a budget z3 package n be out shredding within the week or so. Just a idea boys

Word of warning: since you are going to be racing/drifting this. The car was designed for the M44 engine. When they started putting the M52 in them they didn't beef anything up. They are notorious for tearing the diff mounts out. It's just a sheet metal channel that runs across the trunk bed. I've had mine for years and love the car. Gonna drive it till it dies or I do but they got their issues.

Z3 is super underrated

Love watching these two tackle jobs. Such a good pair of guys

The boys over at DriftHQ back at it again with another banger of a vid🔥🤙

Tiff Needell the Z3 master drifter would approve this video...

Glad to say I own one 😎

If there are no spacers on the rear springs, you may need to shorten the rear strut bodies. I have bc coilovers and mine are lowered about an inch from stock. I had to adjust them to give it max travel but not bottom out. Post some updates, I know some things are going to wear out on his car like the diff subframe mount to the body. The channel that runs across the bottom of the trunk floor is only tack welded. It's why I opted for track poly bushings on the rear, but mine is a daily.

Buddy Club, Momo, Nardi, AVS 5’s, Mooneyes. Kid has more style than the rest of Drift HQ combined

100% neeed, yes need to do a “drift my ride” series!!!

Just wanted to say what’s up to Chris. So funny I was watching this video because I just bought a 2.8 z3 , and I was like I think I’ve seen this guy before. You used to do granite templates for me in fort Myers / Naples for me. Glad you are doing what you love.

in the past two weeks, i have been ordering parts almost every day. DriftHQ is very very good at getting parts to you. thank you guys!!!!

The transition from the air compressor to the b-roll music 😗👌🤤

My boy BEN💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

I was at a drift event last weekend in Sweden, and someone there was driving a Z3 built to something like Pro 2 spec. They were rippin.

You reeeeeeeally need something like the randy Forbes kit in the rear to remedy the subframe chassis mount issue. I’ve built like 6 of these things and 4 of them were showing signs of failure from previous owners. Add a two mount diff cover while you’re at it.

Great vídeo! Would love to get more insights on the rear subframe correction kit, especially how to assemble it. I think it’s a piece of info that is not often out there and it would help all of us running e30/compacts/z3.

Big up the z3 drifts from here in the UK! Been ripping and crashing mine near enough 4 years now. Thought I was the only one dumb enough to try 😂 When if at all do you reckon those seat brackets will become available?

Nicely done

Gorgeous Car

Finally!

need to keep things like this quiet, i dont need you adding drift tax to my chassis lol. i'm still paying hairdresser car prices for these. no one wants them

very good

Iradooo

Did you guys change the subframe bushing also? If not you missed the most important one that will ruin that trunk floor

Damn watching this makes me want a hardtop for mine so bad

I fucking love you guys!

Mannnnn how do I get a welder fabricator job with u guys I need some parts to finish my project lol

Is the wheel base too short to make the car stable and easy to control?

Top por o carro pra andar em pouco tempo , sonho kkkkkkk

Can we get a parts list and links to parts

I've spent some time in a M Roadster, good power, but I dreaded taking any sort of hit in it. Sooo small. Hey, at least it doesn't sound like a Z car.

I'm building my bond car also. In green. I'll probably just order parts from you guys.

Better reinforce that rear subframe otherwise you’ll really be drifting into a wall 😂

Awesome video, I think it needs a little more power, all jokes aside that's just what it looked like watching his chase videos . But I could be wrong, what do you guys think?

Guys are funny!

👍👍from this guy

Brother recording sounds like Jesse pinkman and I love it

Yooo it's my car!!!

Midpond reference? 👀👀

5:18 Talking about PMC do you guys reccomend their lightweight flywheels for drifting and in general what is your opinion on running a lightweight flywheel for a drift car? Some people say it's not a good idea because since the flywheel stores inertia you'll lose that inertia when drifting, your rpm will fall more easily in drift, especially on a low powered car like a 2.8 or 3.0 BMW and clutch kicks won't work that good. What is your opinion on this?

How much does this kind of labor cost?

How much this whole upgrade cost???

I own an I6 Z3 and now I'm on the second-hand market looking for a red hard top lol.

I would really love to see a cooler works pro short shifter install on this z3!!!!!! Please make it happen 🥺😂

🤡shoe s54 is on my list of all time car wants🤤

Ben

best part of this video is the getting the parts scene

About 30 minutes ago I just traded my car for a red 1996 bmw z3 roadster 💀, so dope

All of that would take me a year lol

How much is a Z3 going for these days??

when are you guys going to build a Dodgee van ?

U guys installed the top hats wrong lol

😁👍🇯🇵

He could smell that flat battery!

#savioknowsbest 😂

Looks like that Z3 leaks almost as much as my t-top Camaro 😂😂😢😥

Would you be willing to part ways with that hard top? 😳 Because I would 1,000% buy it from you. Let me know please

What is a drift car?

LOOK AT THE CAMERA WHILE YOURE TALKING TO IT BOI! Look like a little kid getting scolded by your teacher, looking away after every word like youre scared of the camera lmfao

Damm im not first

Brotheeeer... i want to cry.. how can people let a car rod as much as the 350z there at the end of the video??? Like in whose sane mind did the idea sprout to install a fartcan on the wonderful VQ35 :( And then the horrible exterior... just... wtf Dx

no take overs here so ship mee my partssss plssss lol

These Are not overlooked, these Are expensive as Hell 😂

Z4 better chassis refine

Z3 and miata shouldnt be mentioned in the same sentence. The Z3 is a much better car. They may be roughly the same size and the Z3 is still affordable for the time being but its better in every way

Needs a V8 🤔

Clown shoe

Z3s look so good with hardtops.
