My 650WHP Turbo M50 E30 BREAKS DOWN 10 Minutes After The Dyno!!

My e30 broke down 3.5 hours away from home on camera! This was such a hectic day but it was very worth it in the end!

the cliffhanger last episode was evil, glad to see it was just the coolant

[@inshallah4280]

That looked like vapor indicating coolant. Smoke would have been much thicker

I overheated my car once and now anything happens I stop and look no matter what

[@vinny6_9]

only way to really find out

[@Burdpvt]

Watching the car progress as well as Joel’s genuine reactions to the power is huge motivation to boost my m52 e30

[@joshmaitie5954]

My brother after these mods i would suggest safety now, better brakes and prob a half cage and a front strut bar

Lol Strut bar isn't gonna do a damn thing.

[@domonic7388]

@@domonic7388 I'm aware. However, a strut bar isn't going to do anything for this kid. All he does is pulls.

29:38 you might wanna buy the reinforced boots that the diesel trucks use so you don’t blow them as easily since they run much higher boost.

[@ngige3617]

this whole channel has come so far it’s awesome to see what you’ve done. be safe! others have mentioned roll cages and better seats, we want you healthy and well 🙏

and especially after that cliffhanger last episode lol

[@smokeandmirrors-pk6ic]

I know we are starving for content inside it’s sad but it is cool to see

[@NextDoorGuy]

Next on the list: bigger brakes. Mobbing with +150whp needs some extra stopping power. Glad to see the breakdown was a hose and not anything else 🤙

[@sleepydub]

Man I'm happy for you, that kind of power in these cars is so fun. Mine is 2JZ with a DCT swap around 700whp, and it's a whole different kind of speed. Nice work!

[@laidback93]

I've spun out on wet roads with my bone stock M20b35. I can't imagine the stress of having 650whp to deal with in the rain in an E30! Your channel has come so far. Congrats!

I'm glad you made it home safe and the car is fine. 650 is amazing, great work from you and your tuner really paid off.

[@nigelfrench6591]

You’re such a genuine guy . Wish I lived closer to you ! You inspire me so much ! Keep doing what you’re doing my guy!

[@FishFind3000]

This is why bmw doesn’t use worm gear hose clamps, only the crimp on clamps. I’d replace all your clamps for with crimp clamps and not worry anymore. That or constant tension spring clamps in hard areas you would prefer to be removable.

[@sahzhree7757]

The old BMW clamps actually are pretty damn good. If you buy quality worm gears they work pretty damn well. That being said, constant tension is still better. His clamp looked OEM, so it being 30 years old definitely didn't help. It had BMW's logo on it and nobody buys OEM for those.

[@danzburg]

awesome video. glad you were able to get it sorted and props to those guys who helped out. cant wait to see more on the car!

[@tommybobommy9208]

this car has come so far dude keep up the awesome work even if it takes a bit to make the vids, quality > quantity lol also you gotta get your dad and your brothers reaction for us!!

2 uploads in a week, LESSGO

[@3p1c_gs49]

That was crazyyy.. i was like.. damn 650WHP🔥 thats crazy and then i saw white smoke came out.. the speeding and accelerating and when turbo catches it boost point, damn.. in camera point it looks way faster than any other car.. hopefully car is in good condition and i hope you are happy that you did this e30 project with turbo engine. I have watched your videos since you got first pulled over because of speeding and losing control in street.. good luck! i like that e30 alot.. and engine and that handling.. crazy.. keep that! 🔥🔥🔥

[@kliocodm]

Wow.. what a video! Im glad it only were coolant! You literally captured it all in this video, Seeing you so happy made me smile so much. Please tell me you ate something when you got home.

[@mikeissweet]

Dumb irrelevant point to bring up: but it makes me happy to see this guy's passion for these projects and all the hard work he puts in. Too many people these days are in love with indulging in hood shit, looking tough and irrational, and taking pride in being able to get what they can while doing as little work as possible

[@e30_318is_project]

Damnnn the car is insane now 😂😂 always when i watch your videos, i want to swap my car and throw a turbo on it. M42 out the window 😅 i wouldnt mind if the video was an hour longer, id watch it all the way. The sound is just awesome. Nice one! Hope it stays alive, feels like the power is going to break more stuff on the car 😩

[@2ksleek430]

I was so excited to watch this video glad the car is ok loved the video keep them coming brother

[@zubairdemonk1921]

Sick video 🚀🚀can't wait for the next one to drop 🤩💯

[@rivarte]

same thing happened to me with the coolant hose at the rear of my timing cover for the water pump and when i fixed that, my fuel lines started leaking too 🙃 (I was using cheap worm gear hose clamps and have gotten fuel line clamps since). glad to see it was only a hose clamp!

[@hemiboystv]

The e30 is insane, I can’t wait till my 190e is making around that same power. That car is crazy

[@erikross8832]

So stoked to see an upload every time. Keep being real Joel

[@niko7090]

That weird noise comes from your screamer pipe because the boost is raised with EBC so your wastegate valve goes up and down very quickly, if you want to get rid of that you need to add more spring pressure ro wastegate and retune EBC

[@7_au]

“Feel like I’m about to blow something up” 👀 the foreshadowing is crazy

[@Sknwlker]

When the turbo starts spooling as you accelerate, it sounds like a monster waking up, so cool.

Man that car would be fun AF ripping through the green mountains in VT and Whites in NH. Makes me really miss my G37. I took frequent trips in the last couple years to NH and VT to rip the Kancamagus Hwy and rt9 and 7 and up to lake Willoughby in VT. That e30 is a Dope ass build dude.

[@friguy4444]

Awesome! He's so funny! 😂 His panic is both wory but excitement.

[@imnota]

I've had a hose on my e46 literally just pop off, and they're those ones with the metal clip too, so they can't pop out from pressure. Just if it was badly installed, but I never touched it. Clipped it back in, knocked on random houses until I found some water and it's been fine since then. Sometimes it's not really explainable

[@Marko-JZX100]

Quite a good luck that after lifting the head so seriously that the combustion pressure blew the coolant hose, and had a nice coolant showering at the same time inside the cylinders, you still have a somewhat working head gasket/cylinder head sealing assembly. Might wanna check the aftermath with a leakdown test and compression test to be sure the engine is still within acceptable cylinder variances.

[@Gen01Lee]

Dope! I noticed the CT classic plates right away, I’m almost done Building a LS3/LSA powered 87 Iroc-Z w/T56 Magnum F, and a QP 9”. 650whp is crazy in that little car. 🤙

[@hunterr9176]

With all the time and money wrapped up into the car, I’d definitely recommend getting gauges that can warn you if something is wrong, ie if coolant temp reaches a certain point it will beep/flash. If you hit those temps in an m54 the block would be toast

[@grantflory4044]

love the consistancy man

[@JTrades136]

Gotta love watching car people enjoy their cars and their hard work

[@nikolasvenetidis9608]

Is this a mechanical driven water pump? With the new boost level and a weak clamps the surge in pressure could easily pop off a weak clamp. Anyways Joel love your videos, your personality is unmatched in the car community and your videos feel super relatable as a car enthusiast, keep up the work brother! Been watching these since 2020 and still here to enjoy it!

[@kanenstuff]

That's a pocket rocket I would love this in my E36 and for sure the hose clamp check is a must in my 180SX weekly I check my hose clmaps and it's only making 300hp.

[@ItsBabaEro]

I had the upper radiator hose pop out on my 2.8 z3 when I did a redline pull in 1st gear so I tightened the hose as much as I could. I tightened it so hard that the plastic inlet on my stock radiator broke instead from too much pressure. Ended up redoing everything in my cooling system and went with an aluminum rad instead.

Holy HELL broskie! I've never yelled at my phone but DAM watching you drag that motor down the highway after seeing the needle pegged. You had so much momentum had it been shut down stat it woulda cooled down appreciably by the time it came to a stop. Better test the coolant to make sure, 280deg is fooking HOTT

[@bavarianglassworkz660]

bro the pull at 13:35 is crazy that thing is so fast now

[@mikeenz8]

crazy to see how far the e30 has come

[@z3LDDIR]

Definitely keep an eye on the coolant hoses one of mine on my e34 literally ripped/split open after ripping it on the way home I had to order a new hose the older bmw's naturally run super hot and when u rip on them the temp goes even higher.

[@aniballopez2250]

Get a heat blanket for the turbo and keep up the content 💪🏼

[@luckgrip252]

Oh damn. I only now realized that you ship the merch in the Europe too. Was about to pass on your merch because of customs which is a hassle and costs me more money if I was to order something that comes from US. I know that because I ordered E9X and F30 shirts + hoodies from Vehicle Virals, loving the products, not the hassle that I have to go through. Will hook me up with some E30 merch soon it seems!
