This has got to be some of the most stressful looking 2 weeks I’ve ever seen. So much respect for pulling through it danny👊

I just know it feels 10000x better driving it opposed to paying someone else to swap it. What a task brotha congrats!

Deuteronomy 31:6 ~ Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.”

So, there I was, cruising down this winding mountain road in my beloved BMW M3. You know the feeling - that powerful engine purring, the road hugging those sporty tires like an old friend. It was one of those perfect driving moments. As the sun dipped low in the sky, casting a warm orange glow over everything, that's when it happened. Out of nowhere, a deer leaps onto the road, right in my path. Instinct took over, and I swerved hard to avoid it. Tires screeched, but I managed to dodge the deer. But here's the twist - that sudden maneuver sent my BMW skidding off the road and straight into a patch of trees. It felt like everything was moving in slow motion. The front end was all crumpled, and the airbags had deployed, filling the cabin with an eerie silence. I took a moment to check myself for injuries, and luckily, I was okay. Stepping out of the car, I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. My poor M3, the pride and joy, now looking battered. But you know what? I was safe, and that was what really mattered. A tow truck showed up, and I watched as they carefully loaded my BMW onto the flatbed. It was a bit of a somber sight, but it made me realize how life can throw these unexpected twists at you. The car, well, it could be fixed or replaced, but I couldn't. As I drove away from the scene, I couldn't help but reflect on the importance of staying alert on the road and how much I valued my safety and well-being. That BMW, it had protected me when it mattered most, and for that, I'm truly grateful.

After 15 years of scrolling through KZfaq this is one of my first comments ever. This video hits hard, I’ve spent so much of my time and money on my e93 and it’s still giving me nothing but issues. To see you at the end of this video so joy was and feeling accomplished gives me a little hope that one day I’ll figure this out and get to enjoy driving my car without the fear of it constantly breaking down. Good job man you guys killed it. Keep up the awesome videos!

Huge respect goes to you for swapping the engine and showing the bad and good parts of the job. I definitely can relate to the desperate moments when something doesn't want to work. When the car starts driving you just feel that it was worth it. The content is improving and it is becoming one of my favorite youtube channels that I think it will reach a huge amount of subscribers. Keep it up danny 🔥👌🏻

Danny Z is one of the most *Underrated* Automotive channels!!

I just got a 2011 Camaro with 33k miles for a steal at an estate sale. The title was rebuilt but for 6k it was with worth it, she was a nice silver. My neighbor needed a ride to work one day I said okay even though I didn’t have the car registered yet. Drove 30 mins, dropped him off , & on the way back literally 10 minutes from my crib. The car in front of me slams on his brakes because a car in front him slammed on their brakes because he was about to miss his turn. & I stopped to late because I was switching the song on my phone. I probably hit him at like 10/15 mph but because he had a pickup truck it crushed my who front clip. Cool dude though cause he didn’t call the police but after paying 5k to a body shop the thing I regret the most is not charging my neighbor gas money. 😔

I thought people said the N54 was unbreakable 😅 I have to say though kudos to you for always doing the work yourself on your own garage. Most people just send there cars into a workshop and then make like they built the car themselves.

That moment when the guy on the phone said, "You gotta pull the motor back out." Damn 😦

Finally bro, We all Missed you!

The fact that you guys doing this without car pit or lifter is amazing, hats down 👏💪

danny z is actually your car youtuber's fav youtuber

Car is so solid now 🙌🏻 great work

Absolutely love your energy and enthusiasm brother. I’d honestly watch you make content about anything. Love your style and realness 💯💯💯

Shows how much effort you put in the videos 🤟🏻 keep grinding u gone keep achieving greatness

Bro 2:05 caught me off guard, I’m dying 😂😂😂

congratulations danny, swapping a motor by yourself(with friends help and knowledge) has to be so satisfying. the grind starts here. theres nothing you cant learn or do. keep proving that to yourself

Followed the whole series. This man is living my dream❤️

Glad to see the 335i back on the road driving 👍

Well this video was awesome👌🏽 Thanks for sharing your experience!

Love your content bro. The struggle you go through trying to do everything by yourself is relatable. Big ups, and can't overlook how supportive your girl is. 👏

“I don’t understand any of this…” “Me neither”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 would be my exact response 🤣🤣

“then I started crying “ I Fr thought something else had happen 😂😭😭 you crack me up Danny props for even putting that clip in, video was an emotional roller coaster Fr 💯 keep up the grind pa !.

Hard work and dedication truly inspirational this isn’t just about cars at this point, proud of you Danny!

I love, how he bought it as a cool daily driver, and now it costs him more time and money than any other car😅

Daaaang nice job man! I recently purchased a Manual BMW 335XI that I’ve been repairing of these past couple of months (I bought it hit from an auction). It’s crazy to see you on KZfaq put the same mods I have on my car 😆. I would also recommend another part I didn’t see you install. It’s a Crank Hub Bolt Capture. Since you are making all this power it’ll give you some piece of mind not having to worry about your crank hub spinning especially after a engine swap. It’s a super easy install👍. Love your videos bro

this is thing is really coming along Danny ❤❤❤❤

DannyZ, you give me flash backs to my 20's when I had a Fox Body Mustang I would daily and take to the local drag strip on the weekend. This usually ended with me pulling an all-nighter Sunday to fix whatever broke over the weekend so I had transportation to work the following day ( as a Dealer Technician ). Those were some "Good Times", do I miss it.... absolutely not. But man it is sure entertaining watching someone else re-live some of that pain. To that End, I salute your perseverance, God Bless you and never let that passion die.

Be careful with letting Freon out like that 😂

you have to be one of the funniest and most enjoyable car youtubers i have come across.

By far the best video I've seen from you thus far. You are living proof, if you stick to your dreams and goals anything can be possible. I've been following your Chanel for a year or so and you grow and your content keeps getting better and better. Keep doing THIS !

Great video man! Glad you stayed persistent and put in the work to get your car back.

at this point, u need a daily for the daily

Started watching this series when you first started switching the seats out. I was just so motivated by you to get a bmw in my hands man I today I did bro❤thanks for the inspiration man fr❤💯

Wow Danny you got balls, great job!! You tried and did it! 👍🏽😎 Thank you for going the extra mile, fantastic video, keep up the great work! Did we ever find out the exact problem with the old one? Would be cool to know.. See you in the next one 👊🏽😊

Lets go friday came early with a new Danny vid

Was working a day at the airport, in a rental car company. My boss asked me to jump in a car, to be delivered to a customer waiting at the parking. What a surprise, when i met the customer, it was Mr Alain Prost, a French Formula 1 driver back in the old days 😍😍👍👍

Hard work pays off!! Congrats man, youre a good example of perseverance.

Been excited for this one!! 🔥

Happy for you bro glad to see your car running again 🙌 let's GOOOOO!!!

Your resilience through this build is admirable. Good job bud. Car looks great

hey man, been enjoying keeping up with the build. i noticed when you were having issues getting it started , (been thre with the tc) you were trying to turn it left not right. when your turning the motor over by hand, NEVER turn it left, always turn in a clockwise motion. can do major damage turning it over counter clockwise. other than that good on ya man keep up the hard work. oh, and i hope you used red loctite on the TC bolts ; )

Glad you put the 335 back on the road!! Let’s goo 🚀

Unreal!!!! You did it ! 🔥🔥🔥 The crying at the end hit the heart for sure 😩♥️

I saw this bmw process since you purchased for this videos I started to fix my own bmw! Glad to know that is alive🎉

Proud ah you bro 🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥

😂😂i question how he does a lot of stuff but I don’t question his comedy, confidence and video editing skills ❤❤

Most people send their cars to the shop so it’s nothing more than a car to them but Danny built his car by hand so it’s more than just a car to him

you came along way!!!!

Nice work! N54💪🏽👊🏾🔥🔥🔥

Great job Danny!

I build a rust box with a rotary 13b big turbo haltec fuel cell and all the good stuff to make 500 to the wheel . The problem was how rusted the vehicle was so after a few weeks of ripping up the streets we go to the track and I put full slicks on for the 1st time ever and I turned it up to over 30psi boost . I line up , light goes green and on the launch the front tire go up pretty aggressively and when it lands the drivers seat almost came thru the floor . My feet hit pavement!!! Had to tow it obviously. Just glad I still have both my legs/feet , the seat held on by just one bolt and bracket and when getting lifted the whole floor board came off with both seats !! Lmfao

Eso es todo perro, eres el mejor

My story: We were getting everything ready to head out to Scrapin the Coast 2023 and the last thing to do was load up the truck on the trailer. We spent about 1 1/2 hrs trying to load it up at probably 1am and another 1 1/2 hrs trying to load it up the next morning. Long story short the truck did not make it on the trailer. I'd been working my ass off for the 4 months before getting this truck ready for the show so I wasn't about to just give up. I put it on stocks and drove it the 4 hours to the show. This truck has no ac and damn sure isn't geared for interstate speeds. Somehow my 1983 Nissan 720 made it round trip with no problems and even brought home 3rd in class, Datsun/Nissan/Hardbody.

Im not gonna lie i see the struggle you’ve been through and ik thats frustrating and i kinda injoyed watch the stuggle from this to that and then finally getting it done ik you lost with the car but you won with the videos

Amazing work bro congrats

Nice. I have had my 09 335i since 2016. Craziest/worst thing that happened to me. I drove it from Toronto to Newfoundland (a few days drive for a trash job) on the way back the run flats I had at the time blew. Bent the rim and the company was trying to get me to pay for it. Started a shorts channel recently come show that 335i love

So lit, what a journey this Beamer has been 😂 now you can redo that race with the Supra and M4.

Maaaaaan congrats man i Know for sure you were the happiest man alive when you got your baby back

I built and tuned my S15 SR20, it had a few different variations but ended up with the largest Garrett GTW, E85, 3 fuel pumps, 1600cc top feeds with a twin entry radium pump, re enforced sleeves, tomei 270 pro cams, weisco pistons the works. Link ecu, was great. Tuned it made 470kw on high boost, then my stupid self accidentally loaded the wrong tune into the car and without noticing I started tuning low boost (22ish pound). Super fat and blew the only thing I skimped out on in the build which was an apexi 3 layer mls head gasket. I was offered this 4 layer mls heaps better quality and I skimped. Long story short I loaded the right tune back in and it still made 470kw @ wheels while pressurising the cooling system. Cracked the shits,sold it cheap, guy brought a grand too little then we agreed on, I still let it go. Just before covid. For 10k. I had about 80k in the car build. Stock ones here now since covid are about 50k. Built ones like mine are going for more. If that's not tragic and worth some merchandise I don't know what is

Nice! Never a doubt you would get er' done!

I literally did the same thing back in the day with a Lexus ES300… put the whole thing back together, wouldn’t turn over at all, to only figure out I forced the tranny to the motor vs them naturally binding. Had to pull it out. Haha

Congrats bro 🎉

there you go Danny i was hoping that you don't abandon your sweet ride

i love this video 💯 just amazing

Congratulations bro, pretty daunting task but you got there in the end. 🎉

thx for this vid it actually inspired me

Props to you bro, you did an amazing job dressing up the n54

Man I missed this beauty I Can't imagine the rollercoaster it was throughout the whole process to get to this point but man it's well worth it. The craziest automotive experience I've had was when I tried to drift an '05 Nissan Sentra and wrecked... why try drifting in that car? I don't know either, I was young and was with friends, full of adrenaline speeding on the streets late at night. I took a corner into a Raising Canes parking lot, lost control, and went straight into the concrete base of a light post. It ended up displacing the exhaust manifold and it was a nightmare having to fix it. A few more accidents later the car was deemed totaled, so we decided to get rid of it. If it wasn't for all that stupidity, I would have never gotten a hand-me-down car from my dad which was an '05 BMW E46. That was back in 2019 and I've had the car since then. Fell in love with it and am INFATUATED with bimmers. Amazing work and big respect Danny 🔥

Break kit next mod 👀👀 and congrats Danny!! We see your hard work and you never give up! You overcame a huge obstacle man 💪🏽💪🏽‼️
