Building a BMW E36 M3 LS SWAP + Widebody in 20 Minutes

[@LouisEguchiWale]

I don’t know what’s more impressive, the amount you filmed or the build !

[@matt13ross]

Lots of work both ways!

[@arial_01]

Absolutely LOVE that car! Been following the build most of the time its been on the channel, and I am still MORE than happy to sit and watch the compilation!

[@matt13ross]

Thanks so much! I enjoyed the memories making this new video comp.

[@abrahammoua4748]

The build that got me hooked on this channel

[@matt13ross]

Glad to hear that!

[@famus801]

Your LS E36 is how i Originally found your channel and Man did it Re-Spark that Love for My Own E36! Love the Channel Matt Keep it up, Sky is the Limit

[@matt13ross]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@piehole789]

This has got to be hands down the most impressive car build video I’ve ever seen , you are one talented mofo… excellent work.

[@matt13ross]

Thanks so much!

[@mrjibrox]

First time i saw this whole Clip … Thats a Proper build and sounds Insane ……… The Combo between the LS and BMW chassis is Like Factory intended …. keep it up buddy .. Hooked to this Channel all the way From Malta , Europe …. You guys are lucky in the car scene

[@JesuaArita]

You made this swap look way to smooth, nice work!! (I will hopefully be able to attempt a swap like this and make it look this easy)

[@salazarthecreator57]

that is what i would call a one man army. thank you!

[@dailydriven991]

I need to watch that build from the beginning. My goal has always been 911, which is how I found the channel. But, since I’ve had my ls3 Corvette I’ve learned just how simple, reliable and easy to work on these motors are and now I’m hesitant to give it up. Car guy problems lol.

[@matt13ross]

Agreed, my E36 is super simple and reliable lol. Love it!

[@HXRMLESS]

if hes not a mechanic this is super impressive to do by himself

[@aaronf4201]

This is so freaking cool. This is as cool as any Porsche to me. The work involved is amazing!

[@matt13ross]

It was a lot of work over a few years. Love the car, need to add A/C.

[@Beedo907]

you don't know how much gifted u are

[@Antwan.Frazier]

Man seeing the Colorado in the background makes me miss those vids, that’s what originally bought me to your channel. Keep up the grind and great work

[@matt13ross]

I miss that truck too!

[@timothymurauzi5144]

Respect man. The sheer amount of money, time and dedication that went into this is unreal

[@matt13ross]

You're right but man I love this car and its all worth it!

[@Yabani-Ra]

It was painful watching those fenders being cut. Brings back memories from High School. Great build.

[@davidgreicius1021]

for DYI guy its an amazing outcome!!!! congratulations !

[@matt13ross]

Thanks!

[@P-J-W-777]

Man the first song reminded me so much of watching an 80’s movie!

[@matt13ross]

Haha yup!

[@adcampo7601]

Love that driveway burnout!

[@matt13ross]

Merica!

[@_aSa-]

Insane build bro, every detail on this car is fire! Love it! Best color, wheels, motor, wing, interier... everything is perfect for me!

[@matt13ross]

Thanks a ton!

[@Papa-Bogey]

Ok. Found the channel with your last poor sha build. Now I have to go back and binge watch the E36 build.

[@matt13ross]

That would be awesome! It was fun re watching this as I edited the video. Lots of memories.

[@bradfoster8146]

No part of the car untouched. What a masterpiece

[@matt13ross]

Thanks so much!

[@bengreen3204]

No Sir! I want my 911 content!

[@matt13ross]

[@blakedager147]

[@X_Niaxx_X]

Can't believe you did this in only 20 minutes!!

[@matt13ross]

Wild!

[@imSchwaggy]

I'm putting a 6.0 in my 4.8ls e36 this weekend. Can't wait to drive it again.

[@matt13ross]

Will be a beast!

[@pollatso]

Great vid but it’s all about the 911’s great content that you do.. please do an older 911 after the 997 but don’t rush the 997 really enjoying it 👍👍👍🙏🇬🇧

[@matt13ross]

Working on the 997 too no worries!

[@JC.LC.]

[@matt13ross]

Haha, mainly just me, yes.

[@AbbyDeada-g4u]

I'm truly amazed by both the extent of your filming and the remarkable craftsmanship of the build; it's hard to decide which one is more impressive. By the way, we've sent you an email regarding a possible collaboration. Please feel free to take a look whenever you have a chance. Thank you! 😊

[@matt13ross]

Thanks so much! Which collab exactly?

[@Chattsteezy]

@@matt13rossThat was probably an automated comment Matt. Be careful

My hat off to you my brother. you make everything looks so EZ . I have a e38 that I would love to do a LS conversation . but my mechanical skill are not at your level. if by any chance would you be able to help an other BMW gear head.

[@matt13ross]

Sorry man, I only have time for my own stuff.

[@dkosawa]

Ah, now I see why your holding on to what I thought was a POS M3. Cool build

[@matt13ross]

I'm appalled you thought it was a POS lol.

[@rafaelmartinmeuldijk6030]

Amazing !!

[@gideontladi]

Still good. Maybe one day you will work on the E30...someday, lol.

[@matt13ross]

I really want to, trust me, just no time.

[@remady5827]

[@SteinAHS]

Hey bro, can u tel me where u buy the inside rear cladding?

[@matt13ross]

I'm sorry the what?

[@jhz3728]

Where can i find the backseat delete ?

[@007clownfish]

So in between an extremely difficult Porsche complete frame swap, apparently Matt likes to relax by LS swapping an M3, going full Nakai San RWB on the thing, turning his garage into a body shop, and installs an Alpine stereo at the end for why the @$%! not. All in one video. 🤯

[@matt13ross]

Ahaha, you got it!

[@Izy_Music]

what is the engine ?

[@antonkuts7823]

That’s some hotness ❤if was ever gonna sell how where would u price it at?

[@matt13ross]

Never selling!

[@JustATakit]

How reliable is the BMW after all the mods you made?

[@matt13ross]

VERY

[@FrancoisProjects]

Im missing my e36. I bought it at 19 it was an shitbox. Body filler everywhere, front end was cut and joined. During the years fixed and upgraded everything,v8 Lexus engine swap. When lockdown hit, i had to sold it.had it for almost 16years and memories gone😢 Have an E90 for daily but it's got no "soul"

[@matt13ross]

Time for another E36 project it sounds like!

[@thestebbi2008]

why do you make it look so fkn easy 🥲

[@matt13ross]

It wasn't too bad lol

[@danelgegeev4144]

Hell yeah

[@gregwong1899]

I got a virgin near mint 1992 Bmw 325is with 133,000 original miles and I want to do an LS swap like yours,however I was wondering how you insured after you put almost 20k into a car that’s worth 5000.00 in its stock form any information would be helpful thanks.

[@matt13ross]

That's something I haven't done yet. I plan on it though

[@oversteer6771]

My brother what don’t you know how to do? welding Fab painting mechanic 😵‍💫😂💪🏼

[@matt13ross]

Def not a great welder or painter, but I try!

[@scxttsz]

What is the name of that white plate you put on your car?

[@matt13ross]

White plate?

Hey Matt awesome build! What headers are you using?

Thanks! CX racing ebay.us/MzWb7R

[@dekonhulse7566]

I could’ve watched this for atleast 6 more hours

[@matt13ross]

I've got a whole playlist you could watch lol

[@18dawg83]

can u make these bmw e36 ls swap automatic?

[@matt13ross]

Yes. You can choose whatever transmission you want.

[@aose19]

Why Don’t you do custom fiberglass Custer to fill the gap , 19:41

[@matt13ross]

Nah, I don't mind the over fender look. It does need a paint job though.

[@Riddler-c2y]

Carbon trunk???

[@BrandonDull]

bro livin the dream of many talents lol

[@matt13ross]

I try lol

[@letd1995]

You’re a beast. That a weapon right there did you ever weigh it with the LS?

[@matt13ross]

I've been meaning to weigh it, it's on the list! I'm guessing right at 3000 lbs.

[@MrBoukai]

How much time does it took to build that car? Awesome work man, keep it up!

[@matt13ross]

A few years. Thanks!

[@LakixPompa]

Driveshaft length ?

[@matt13ross]

I’m not sure. I had it shortened but didn’t write down the length.

[@riki8971]

How do i get the same engine ?

[@faiznajjar1513]

When r u gonna sell it?

[@matt13ross]

Never!

Great video, are u a technician by trade?

Nope, just a learn as I go lol.

[@matt13ross]

YUP! lol

[@mikail0072]

Why did you remove the M50 Turbo engine, my friend, big mistake

[@matt13ross]

Too complicated.

[@mikail0072]

@matt13ross I Understand

[@yankysensation]

I didnt see the moment where he mounted the engine mounts...

[@DieumerciMOUNGALA]

Bonjour Mr j'ai une BMW 318i je merai aussi faire pareil comme le tien

[@matt13ross]

You can!

[@GrimOrc]

I am no car guy so i have no clue about this stuff but i always wonder why people give their cars way more power and then remove the driver airbag... always seemed odd to me.

[@michaelsantosuosso7284]

If that's what you're thinking about after watching all that you have the wrong mindset to be in the car hobby brother

[@michaelsantosuosso7284]

Plus there are certain rural categories in racing about having active airbags they're actually a danger more than a helper if they don't go off on impact and then you have a safety crew extracting a driver and there is a wiring problem or an arc in the airbag goes off and hurts or kills the crew or the driver

[@aaronbrown4618]

Could I pay you to help me build my bmw e60 ls swap

[@matt13ross]

Sorry I just don't have time for other people's projects.
