One of the few engines you can do it on 😂

Hey man, I’m not sure if the stock lines work. I use upgraded lines from Seems Legit Garage.

Hey man, I am sure I will get more practice on setting them up soon with the help of my friends. From what I understand though, compression isn’t as important as rebound. You tend to set compression to handle the spring rate you chose. If you remove the rebound from the front of the car it will actually help transfer weight to the rear. So set the compression how you like it and adjust the rebound to gain rear grip as well! The rear compression is the same mentality as far as I know, and the last event we drove, I actually stiffened (slowed) down the rebound in the rear shocks in order to gain grip in some sections of the track where the car felt like it was floating. Let me know if this helps at all, I’m still learning as well!

Thanks!!

Thanks! It is single vanos.

Thank you!

Hey man, with the cut-ring head gasket it is recommended to retorque the head at least once in order to seat the cut ring into the head.

@@dylanlobbestael aha with cut ring. Ive used mls and decompresion pistons so i think that doesnt include me then.

@@jozefchalupka1900 Awesome!!

I know right, I’m usually just so focused on driving when I’m at the track that I don’t turn on my GoPro. I will put together a driving video compilation from the last event though!

😂

Thanks dude!! Appreciate the support!

He is very knowledgeable! Thanks for watching!

Thanks man! Hope you’re doing well!

Thanks man. The drivers side is factory and the passenger side is the Rally Road mount from Seems Legit Garage.

Anytime!

You can’t unfortunately, the input shafts are totally different. As well as the flywheel.

​@@dylanlobbestael, appreciated, thank you.

I got it all together! Tuned, dynoed and drifted. Will be uploading soon. 😊

​@@dylanlobbestaelAny coupon codes? Great content & well explained!

@@bcruzin28 Thanks man! If you send me a message on Instagram @dylanlobbestael, I can help you out!

Thanks!

I have a video going over the installation if you look at my channel.

Thanks so much Dave!!

it's funny you say that, because the engine had a. external coolant leak from the HG the first couple heat cycles but ended up sealing after I retorqued the studs multiple times.

@@dylanlobbestael it didnt seal,will leak again for sure

@@bmwe-op4jx we will find out 😂

One big factor is cause the m52 is a iron block instead of aluminum m54 block

The M54 is a good engine if you want to keep power around 400WHP, maybe more if you only street drive it. Drifting just seemed super harsh on these engines, but I probably demanded a lot more out of it than I should've.

Thanks so much!

Thanks man. Hopefully somewhere between 7500-7800RPM. Really depends if the car makes power at that RPM.

Cheers mate 🍻

I’ll try to make a video explaining everything involved with the swap!

Much love!

Hey man. My friend CMJ made it for me, I can get you connected with him, but Seems Legit Garage also sells an adapter harness now!

I would run the stock wiring and let the ECU control it.

Sorry for the delay!

Yes that car has a Getrag transmission

Thanks for the love!

Trying my best!

Yes it does!

Yes they are. It should work with some modifications. I would run the GS6-53BZ over a T56 though.

Hey man. Watch the video, I explain it all.

Super legit!

The holes on the gearbox are slightly offset so you have to open them up a bit

@@1411MEDIAahhhh makes sense thank you!!

That’s a good idea, thanks for the recommendation! I’ll work on it for the next video.
