This is what building a car truly means. Theres a reason there are 0 dislikes. Amazing work!!!

Your dads reaction to the 2-Step made this video! 🔥🔥🔥

Impressed on so many levels: Focus. Initiative. Resourcefulness. Ingenuity. Imagination. Passion. Vision. Craftsmanship. And - support from those who love you. I'm inspired to complete my own automotive projects that have been moldering in the garage for far too long. Thank you for crafting and sharing your story. You - and your parents - should be proud. (PS - have 1991 e30 320 M tech II begging for an S52 swap, and you are an inspiration).

That welder had me dying, amazing work with the tools avaliable

im impressed... wish i had time, money and knowledge to do something like this myself

I've loved this build since the beginning. Congrats, this thing is literal goals.

That reaction of all that hard work paying off... Holy shit dude what a rush of emotion. Congrats dude!

Damn, actually really really impressed with your craftmanship. I recently did this with my E30 too. Except i didnt put a turbo in it. I just stroked it. Really impressed with what you did with spray cans!!! Keep up!

So basically, this is exactly what I am doing. Starting off small though. I just purchased a m52 engine with 400,000 km. Going to get it into my e30 running and driving. Then over the course of next winter I want to rebuild the motor and drop a turbo. I love your videos. I want to kinda follow what you have done and use it as a benchmark for my success. Kudos to a reliable 500hp bmw e30 m52!! Keep making the great content and ill continue to support !

Crazy skills, and such a humble, likeable guy. And what a build. Keep learning, evolving and sharing dude you will go far 🤘🏼

it genuinely made me happy when he got so excited and said all his work paid off

I love the build, such a wholesome moment when you were excited about your work paying off😖🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

I know that over torque feeling, worst thing in the world 🤣 sick build and great vid dude, glad to see it being enjoyed!!

Nice removable core support man. Good work.

I have huge respect for what you are doing. I watched your video where you ran the stop sign and spun out in front of the police officer and I want to say as a former Military police officer myself that your honesty and attitude during that traffic stop were awesome, that cop was quite chill. One night I was on shift late and I clocked a vehicle at 82 MPH in a 40 MPH on a military base mind you, when I stopped her, she was so honest with me about why she was going so fast (She wanted to test out her rental cars speed) lmao, I told her that I appreciated her honestly and to drive alittle slower and did not cite with with Reckless, instead downgraded to Neg. 2nd. I'm a huge BMW guy myself, the first car I bought myself when I got in the Navy was an E36 M3. My dream car at that time. Keep up the hard work man, enjoy watching your videos.

Dad is awesome and so is Joel! What a great build!

I’m over here putting together an ‘87 325e swapped to M52B28 with S52 cams and you sir just made me want to put down my wrenches... but it’s an e30 so I won’t. Awesome work young man!

Massive respect for this build man!

Dude I'd literally react the same way after building my car lmao love the energy in this vid (:

Been watching for a few months! Love the build, gives me inspiration! Keep up the good work brotha 👏👏

Have loved watching this build. Planning to turbo my E36 sometime in the future and this is a good guide to follow. Great work dude! Hell of a build.

You did so well with the welding. Love your build. Incredible

Damn this gives me motivation to finish my e34, love the videos man. Keep it up! Congrats!

love the passion and the vibe with your dad is golden oh yeah car is cool too lol

Joel, it has been a long time since I have not only been inspired, impressed, and amazed until watching you build your car. I myself bought and e39 528i Dinan edition, with the m52b28 and a manual transmission, about a year ago. I have been searching though forum after forum learning what can be done to my car and have yet to come up with anything that was encouraging. Coming across your channel was the best thing I have seen yet. Mad respect and gratuity to you Joel, you didnt go have this and that done to your ride like most others out there, you did all that work yourself. You did a beautiful, beautiful job. THANK YOU for sharing! I am now off to follow your lead, I hope you keep posting more stuff, and if you like, i will share with you what i am doing with mine. You gotta give me some time though to make some vids to send. Hopefully this winter wont slow me down. I am shooting to have it finished by spring. Again, thank you.

that exhaust is beautiful, nice work

damn all the way from the ground up "ESO EXPLOTO PAYA" had me rolling

Dude you are seriously an inspiration. How excited you got when you finally drive the car made me smile so hard. GIVE ME YOUR KNOWLEDGE PLEASEEEEEEE

Hahaha that reaction was great! Hoping to own one in the near future, maybe not as much power but would be a fun weekend car with 300hp. Great work!
