Incredible video. Probably my favorite of all of them. So informative and that parts list with links is pure gold. Although after clicking on most of the links, the cost to do all that plus time and tools is no joke. Very similar to the cost of converting to single turbo. BUT boy oh boy are you going to be able to put that power to the ground now. Really excited to see this car back at the drag strip. The install seemed to be top notch, really enjoyed watching your friend work. Jealous of all the wheel/tire choices at your disposal now!

Fantastic effort. I'm blown away by how much work that was to swap all of that out. Makes me wonder if my 2008 335xi will need any of those parts. I just got into autocross and drag racing last summer and will be hitting it up again this year. Man I love my car. It's such an improvement from the 3 Ford Taurus' I used to own.. Just put in a Spec single-mass lightweight flywheel and clutch last month. Next is the intake, intercooler, and spark plugs.

I am loving it! Sucks that I haven't really been able to drive it because of the snow. But I'm itching to get it out again this spring. I enjoyed the stock ratio because I do 1/2 mile 170mph+. But shorter gears would be good for shorter tracks.

My bushings are dead on the front control arms on my 135i , idk what to do , just change the bushings or go with a different control arm ? Thx Amazing work btw , dream 135i build 👌🏻
@jake_spence 4 жыл бұрын
It'd be the perfect opportunity to upgrade to M3 control arms. That way you don't have to press in and out different bushings to our existing control arms. I have a link to the M3 control arms in the description. Thanks for watching!

I came to see how the solid bushings get pushed in. Where is it?
@jake_spence 4 жыл бұрын
Must've missed filming or including that part. They're pressed in the same way we pressed in/out the other bushings.

The text on the springs has always been upside down, it seems that's the way they fit best.

Did the solid bushing increase the noise in the car? My car "07 E92 335i is my daily. Would like to improve the handling but keep it quite on the inside.
@jake_spence 4 жыл бұрын
Nope, no additional NVH or noise from the solid rear subframe bushings. The newer F-series BMWs don't even have bushings, they're directly mounted to the chassis of the car. But if you use solid differential bushings, you will feel some vibration and noise.

Great build, just noticed youve put the front control arms on the wrong sides, the front control arm should be inverted (bow down)

Would the 15inch coversion ( calipers and rotors ) work for a 335i ??? Since you basically switched to a 335i hub ? 🤔🤔
@S58AJ 4 жыл бұрын
its easier to do on a 335. you just need to swap rotors and calipers
@jake_spence 4 жыл бұрын
Yes I believe so. We're both thinking the same thing, lol. Since I swapped to a 335i hub, the rest of the parts should be the same for you. Just check the links in my description to buy the exact parts.

My subframe is super rusty it looks awful anyone got some tips to sort this out? It’s a 2008 E87 123d in comparison to your subframe yours looks new and mine has been subject to salted UK winter roads for 12 years!

Dang, I thought mine was bad! I would try to use some POR15, and sand away the rust first.
@KAOS_REAL 4 жыл бұрын
I’m not really sure how to get the inside of it sanded, perhaps I need to get another subframe and get it sandblasted and treated them do a swap

How long would you say it took to do the rear subframe and all arms etc?
@jake_spence 4 жыл бұрын
We took a while because of filming, etc. But I'd say it took a solid 24+ hours of work to do all of this work, front and back.
