PMC ADAPTER KIT - 1JZ to BMW M3 ZF - FULL INSTALL!

[@japhethambutsi4961]

I needed this. Well explained . Next month will be doing this too

[@behradsays]

Glad I could help! And congrats! You’re gonna love it!

[@Edward3jr]

Great Video, I am surprised more people are not going this route. Thank you for making this.

[@behradsays]

I appreciate that! It’s such a solid setup

[@aamaramba]

Make sure to lube the pivot ball, clutch fork, throw-out bearing, and end of the slave cylinder rod

[@sykem8966]

They need to send the alignment tool and instructions other than that you did a wonderful job with this video, very well explained good luck on the youtubing.

[@behradsays]

Yeah it’s weird that they don’t! I appreciate that man 🙏🏽

[@vladislavbalasanyan]

According to the pmc website , you need to cut the guide tube inside the transmission down to 64mm, I have a zf mounted on my gs300 and I get a lot of squealing noise from the brand new throw out bearing touching all the time

[@behradsays]

No way? I’ll have to look into that. I wanted to pull my trans to put a new oem throw out bearing cause this aftermarket one is super noisy.

[@vladislavbalasanyan]

@@behradsays does it make a bunch of noise at idle without your foot on the clutch ? If it does the. We have the same problem , I just cut maybe 5mm off today because I felt making it 64mm seemed too short . But it did make a difference , same throw out bearing no noise at idle , only a little bit when I Rev to 3k.

[@vladislavbalasanyan]

@@behradsays do you have an Instagram , can you send me a video of the noise it makes so I can compare ?

[@KnightGarage15]

Going to be such a nice setup man. Excited to see you back out there.

[@behradsays]

Thanks man, can’t wait to drive again!

[@jasonjackson55]

Nice man!!! wish you all success on youtube and in life! I'm from Kazakhstan and also going to order such kit for BMW M62B44 motor for 5-speed manual gearbox on my e46

[@behradsays]

That’s awesome man! And thank you for supporting 🙏🏽 good luck with your build!

[@viktorregas55]

This video is an awesome tutorial...hope I can make this same build one day

[@behradsays]

Thanks man!

Great stuff brother ! Thank you for sharing !

Glad I can help, man!

[@RBL717RBL]

I know this is an old video and I haven’t finished watching the full video yet, but isn’t that a QR code on the side of the clutch box? Maybe the QR code leads you to online instructions? 🤔

[@realint5484]

Love the build, informative

[@behradsays]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@realint5484]

Yes I live in Jamaica 🇯🇲 so I’m always looking for good information, I just got a crash 2001 BMW e46 and want to put a 1jz gte engine in when I acquire the funds so your information on everything was gr8 thanks #newsubscriber

[@ahmedkarwa4233]

Hey man love the video, you explained it really good. Currently in the process of a 1jz swapping my E36 and found this video super helpful. Definitely subscribing. Did you do any videos of the 1jz build ? Best of luck.

[@behradsays]

Thanks dude, I appreciate the support, and glad the video was helpful! I have a playlist with all the videos so far during my swap! Go check them out! 🤍

[@240Tony]

i needed this! thank you

[@behradsays]

No problem dude! Glad I could help 🤙🏽

[@bonaventurekalulu5802]

Great work man,how did the solid clutch disc perform, i have the oem solid clutch with pmc flywheel,was wondering if it will work. I cant seem to get one with springs for a suitable price. What was the drivability like, is gear engagement harsh or smooth? And will it last as a daily drive

[@behradsays]

The clutch is awesome! I’ve abused it pretty good for a couple years now and no issues. I’ve driven it countless street hours and it’s fine. Not too aggressive!

[@peterjoseph2803]

Bahrad question for you: looking back on the adapter plate and cooling pipe run in . Im at that point (grind off 45' from the adapter plate, so not too adapt the coolant line.? What's your thought looking back.... on the video it looks like great option. I have a 2jzvvti slapping in a 81 OPEL Monza. Same PMC set-up BMW. Best video on KZbin on the adapter kit ... how is Drift week working out for you.

[@behradsays]

I think if I were to do it all again, I would have just deleted the cooling line and ran an oil cooler and sandwich plate to delete the factory filter housing. I’m going to end up doing that soon anyway, so I should have just done it back then lol. Thanks for the love! And your setup sounds awesome! Drift week was amazing, more content to come!

[@peterjoseph2803]

@@behradsays I can't believe that drift week went by so easy for you. I'm supporting DriftGame Irish team YES English Josh included hahaha. Peace out!!♧

[@MarlonB44]

Hey man is it the same deal using the auto trans spacer for the 2j gte? I couldnt find anything regarding that on the website. Great video.

[@behradsays]

I believe it’s the same!

[@JD.Studios.]

Thanks for sharing ! One question tho, what material is this 6 pucks clutch disc coming in the pmc kit ? And how's the pedal feeling, comfortable enough for daily use ?

[@behradsays]

I'm not sure as far as material.. It didn't seem any different than other pucked clutches i've ran. I haven't quite perfected the clutch pedal feel. I first ran a Wilwood 3/4th bore master, and the engagement point on the pedal was at the very top. I never adjusted the pedal rod at the master though. Then the seal on the master blew and I swapped in a stock 5/8th bore master, and the engagement went to the very bottom. Still havent adjusted the rod, so I'll let you know soon! But as for pressure on the pedal, both masters were "street drive" worthy.

[@JD.Studios.]

@@behradsays Interesting info thanks ! I recently received my adapter/flywheel from pmc but without the clutch, as I might have to go twin disc. Appartently the single disc might not hold the expected power.. 😆

[@TireloMudzingwa]

Is there a kit for an automatic gearbox

[@jzx_adam]

Currently piecing together my ZF swap for my JZX. Quick question on the starter, does it have to be an NA 2J starter, or is it just what you happened to have?

[@behradsays]

It has to be NA 2j to fit. And you have to drill the threaded holes out for your swap kit bolts to go through

[@jzx_adam]

@@behradsays appreciate it bro!

[@jonathandecarufel2862]

why you dont delete the coolant pipe? I dont find the video you are talking about it

[@eddievongsayarath8408]

DSSR linked is for e36....was the length good for the schassis?

[@behradsays]

Yeah it lines up perfectly with the pmc shifter in the s13! Not 100% sure about s14.

[@taydencornish]

Thankyou so much!!!!!

[@versitile360]

thank you

[@jdmtuningtech]

You tried the clutch on the road yet?

[@behradsays]

Oh absolutely. I’ve driven thousands of street miles and probably over 50 track days on it. No issues whatsoever

[@jdmtuningtech]

@behradsays nice! Can't decide between the organic Clutch (530d) or this Paddle because want it nice on the road but doing 700nm+

[@mastafixa]

Solid video, does this kit work with some of the diesel gearboxes as well or any other non m3 boxes?

[@ahmedkarwa4233]

I think it also works with the e36 328i manual gearbox

[@behradsays]

Double check the link in the description for the kit. They have info about fitment on drift HQs site!

[@jacobbigdong7602]

Are all of the 2j bell housing the same?

[@nathanieldominguez3807]

Did you have to extend the slave also?

[@behradsays]

No, factory M3 slave cylinder!

[@MatthewWintoniak]

Did you have to modify or take the hammer to the trans tunnel?

[@behradsays]

Only where the slave cylinder goes, because it’s opposite side of ka/sr trans. Also the top area of the tunnel, at the firewall, to help with room behind the engine.

[@behradsays]

And just hammering, no modifying.

[@willeroc8876]

Do they make a trans mount kit to go along with this trans swap ? I have 02 is300 and want to do this set up any info would help...

[@behradsays]

I had to have a custom trans crossmember fabbed up for my s13. At the time I did this swap, no one made a crossmember for ZF to s13. There may or may not be one for is300 nowadays but I’m not sure.

[@magraopb]

Can you tell me the thickness of this PMC part?

[@taydencornish]

The bolts I got to bolt the Guibo onto the zf weren't shanked, causing play and the bolts kept coming loose now my holes are ovaled.. Pretty shit of them to include the wrong hardware

[@behradsays]

Did you reach out to them about it?

[@lapd1989]

Sweet bro thanks man

[@damiangonzalez7117]

Did your swap make noise when in neutral and clutch pedal out?

[@behradsays]

What brand of throwout bearing did you use?

[@krieshanparagh3281]

I want to put a is200 manuel trans into a 1jzx110 wich bellhousing i cant use

[@hooninglexus4537]

Man im having some issues… when i tighten the pressure the clutch disk doesnt get tightened down… when i pull the alighment tool the disk just falls?!?! Any help?

[@behradsays]

Are you sure you’re tightening the pressure plate down to the right torque spec? And make sure your clutch disc is facing the correct way!

[@themuffinman25]

Gonna rip brotha excited for you

[@behradsays]

I’m so ready! Now get that RB going again.

[@themuffinman25]

Waiting on billet oil pump gears and to lock Kasey in for 1 day so we can bang everything out in one session.

[@catrachoruiz20]

can i use the 2jz transmision and engine together for the swap..on my e36.. i see they only use the 2jz engine amd keeping same bmw trans..? any help..

[@behradsays]

You can keep the 2jz trans (r154) but it just won’t fit in the e36 very easily. People keep the e36 trans (ZF5) because it fits perfect and it’s much smaller and lighter.

[@hawkeyesdriftgarage9147]

Is there a reason why you ran a 2jzge starter and not the 1jz?

[@behradsays]

The 1jz starter doesn’t work with the adapter plate. I’m not sure of the reason why they designed it like that though. But the good part is that the 2j starter is much easier to source in the US if you need to replace a bad one.

[@hawkeyesdriftgarage9147]

@@behradsays thanks man. Which 2jzge starter are you using? I believe GS, SC, and Supra are the same...not sure about is300 since I keep getting different part numbers.

[@behradsays]

Any NA 2jz starter should work. As long as it’s got an open face. I believe mine came out of a first gen gs300

[@mahtisonniify]

@@behradsays 1jz starter does work, even the 1j vvti one :)

[@stevenbolton5967]

Any update on the car driving with the conversion done just curious as I’m in the middle of doing mine but don’t know anyone first hand with a conversion done with the kit

[@behradsays]

I’ve been shredding this setup hard for almost 2 years now! No major issues. It’s a noisy drivetrain, lots of vibration. I might try to delete the solid guibo and go to a stock rubber one. Otherwise I’m very happy with the whole setup!

[@behradsays]

You can checkout my IG @behradsays. Tons of driving videos

[@stevenbolton5967]

@@behradsays aw deadly I’ll check it out man great content too 👍

[@478slimm]

How much power can these transmissions hold? I’m currently doing a 1.5jz build, forged internals, built head. Looking to be at around 800whp. I want to go cd009 but it’s a lot of effort to make it fit in a mk3 Supra, effort that I don’t want to put forth.

[@behradsays]

They say these can hold like 600.. you’d definitely be pushing it at 800 haha.

[@behradsays]

But they are super small and stout! Much smaller than a CD

[@478slimm]

Yeaa bro, I live around Atlanta and in this region they are taxing for r154’s. It’s something about paying $3k for a 30 year old transmission that doesn’t sit right with me😑 my rods are rated for 200hp per cylinder and I just want something that’ll take the 800 with ease and won’t break the bank or my spirit while trying to install it 😂

[@mostinwilliams1310]

How do you know what pressure plate on clutch setup to use, Is it for the BMW?

[@behradsays]

Yeah, you need a bmw clutch and pressure plate. I’m using a Sachs pressure plate and a pmc clutch disk

[@Jervisli]

Hi, will this flywheel be noisy? Like the noise of the E36 321M3 dual-mass flywheel (LOLOLOLO...)

[@behradsays]

I can’t say for sure.. mines making noise now but it’s more than likely throw out bearing noise, not flywheel. I didn’t use an oem TOB and I should have 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@TheGnaarus]

Honestly stealing that socket method of stoping the flywheel from spinning when torquing.

[@behradsays]

Lol! Not a bad move, huh?

[@ao8271]

Does this work with zf 6 speed trans?

[@behradsays]

Yes, the adapter kit should work with the 6 speed, but you need a custom trans mount.
