Essential BMW E46 Subframe Reinforcements & Condor Bushing Install/Removal Ep6

This description contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated* As an eBay Partner, I may be compensated if you make a purchase* Today, we take on the E46 Condor speed shop bushings and reinforcement install. The BMW e46 325i, 328i, 330i, and M3, have issues with the chassis cracking where the rear subframe attaches to the chassis. The Condor weld on plates helps strengthen those areas. And paired with their high quality plastic bushings, makes any E46 bulletproof.

[@bigkeg9173]

[@TimursYT]

Love the rims on the e46

[@jspeedracing]

Andy found those bad boys on Facebook lol

[@TimursYT]

@@jspeedracing definetly suits the car

[@atipsuttisaragara868]

i recommend the drifthq toe correction Rear trailing arm plates if you're having trouble with toe on the rear. esepciallyif you didnt get offset rtabs

[@jspeedracing]

Yoo what's up. I'll let Andy know to look into those. He's still needing to dial the car in for drifting lo. Thanks man

[@Andres4151014]

What type of welder did you use? When I welded mine I had trouble, it kept creating holes when trying to weld the reinforcement plates to the chassis

[@jspeedracing]

I have a hobart 210. When you burn through and create holes. that means it is set too hot. turn down the power a bit. I am not a good welder, I just know that hahahah

[@Backcountry_mike]

I think you put the diff bushing in backwards. It says in the instructions specifically to pound it in twards the diff my friend

[@sergiochavez1673]

This what I was thinking, and then I came to the comments to see if anyone else caught this 😅

[@adasterdezaster2865]

He’s doing a HOW NOT to do it video

[@jonathanrivera291]

💯💯💯💯❤

[@star_fazer2974]

Where do I find that front bumper? It looks nice

[@jspeedracing]

Try junkyards haha

[@star_fazer2974]

Any idea what it’s called or something I can use to find it on google?

[@Teggymania]

You guys didn't do the trunk reinforcement?

[@jspeedracing]

Trunk?

[@Teggymania]

@@jspeedracing I was reading the bimmerworld guide and apparently there's reinforcement that has to be done on top of the subframe mounting points through the trunk, which is what the squares that come in the condor kit is for. I just want to know if it's necessary or not since it's something I overlooked. Based on this answer I'm assuming you didn't have any issues skipping that lol.

[@jspeedracing]

@@Teggymania I would worry about it if yours is not crazy rusty and not torn already

[@Teggymania]

@@jspeedracing Ehhh. There was one crack big crack on the left rear mounting point, that was it.

[@rtzeexy374]

Not to be rude to condor but I would go for other reinforcement that cover more (I know which one Im gonna get but to be nice to their new sponsor I wont say another company here)

[@jspeedracing]

Good input man , thanks

[@zaynepelayo5806]

no tank removal?

[@jspeedracing]

correct

[@NeeoDroid]

Hey thanks for the video! I'll install reinforcement plates on my E46 this summer. I'm wondering if we need to remove the carpet insude the car so it doesn't catch fire from the heat of the welder? I guess not since I've seen no one mentioned it???

[@jspeedracing]

Hey man great question! We did not have a problem with it. We did pull the trunk carpet and had a buddy keep an eye on it. Use code “jdrives” for 6% off at Condor.
