Rocket Bunny Turbo S52 BMW E30 Build | Part 17: Subframe Paint & Assembly

[@corradosteve1021]

Hell yeah! We need more videos! Your channel is one of my favorites and your old stuff is amazing. Hope you're not losing the passion.

[@WelcomeToTheMadness]

When you install it on the car, check the inside of the rotors when you start driving. I had some calipers rubbing on the rotor issues. Same SRS kit.

[@EuroGarageOfficial]

Welcome To The Madness what was your fix?

[@WelcomeToTheMadness]

EuroGarage Grind it down a little bit. It’s been good since.

Very nice progress. Pretty big brakes now!

[@mre3021]

My boy Mike! Awesome content, please keep it coming.

[@E30ShedSkid]

White looks good I went for the mint color

[@IvanMartinez-nj3hd]

how dirty does it get?

[@LotekE30]

you noted that you used a raised subframe bushing. Did you use a offset differential bushing?

[@quutay]

i miss you so much man :))

[@Henier17]

I need to see the dyno video already!!!! 😂😂

[@MarlonB44]

Hey man just came across this video again. The SRS page says nothing about the z4 hubs, did you have to modify something or space out the rear brake disc? I just went for the rear compact calipers with a e36 325i disc grinded down to 272mm (z4 hubs also) but this option seems quite a bit better.

[@JoanAvilez]

My boy zollo! 💪🏽

[@bishopuu07]

Thanks

[@Dietcola1]

Dope man!

[@maxkoch6529]

Which undercarriage, subframe and axles did you use? Are they from the e36?

[@ptazman101]

I’m so jealous

[@Gharazh]

I am hoping to see the 1st run before my retirement... jk nice job man!

[@1one3_Racing]

Imagine going in to the parts store and saying you want 325 rear discs and the guy is like "what's the VIN?"

[@EuroGarageOfficial]

Like that old Johnny cash song. But yes I have to construct a list of all the combinations of different parts so that I don’t lose track myself.

[@Northern_]

IMO good move not running the eccentric trailing arm adjusters.

[@zambuzan]

y not

[@Northern_]

@@zambuzan The eccentrics are made for a static joint on the front of an E39, when they're put in a dynamic joint on the e30, they tend to move and lose their alignment. IE makes "posi-lok" ones with teeth, but reviews of those are critical of how coarse the adjustment increments are.

[@zambuzan]

Northern gotcha. Well garagistic is coming out w a “shim” kit that essentially sets a static adjustment with the eccentrics, might be worthwhile in the long run. But from what I’ve read, merely raising the subframe is a lot better for street cars anyway.

[@EuroGarageOfficial]

I think so!

[@seanrossi2900]

Is there a specific year or mode of e46 needed for the calipers on 5 bolt conversion?

[@boogierilleybugautorepair3416]

Gave me an idea how to do it can E36 brake disc and calipers and hub work on the E30 or does it have to be a z4 hub

[@1one3_Racing]

The whole time, all I see is the missed spot...

[@shauno_420fam3]

I was dying inside having to look at it

[@สิริวัชร์บุญช่วย-ฅ2ถ]

Which model of brake disc do you use? I am doing as well.😊😊😊😊

[@bigsur175]

Why didn't you put bushings in the subframe

[@EuroGarageOfficial]

Steve Griffin I did. As you can see they are in fact installed. I must have forgotten to show it though.

[@bigsur175]

@@EuroGarageOfficial why didn't you take them out before you painted it

[@akmedia2313]

Hey man do you still have your XJ?

[@Vaabuss]

Are you going to seam weld the chassis?

[@EuroGarageOfficial]

wurmhole no. You don’t seam weld a road car. It’s dangerous.

[@Vaabuss]

EuroGarage Youre not tracking it? No structural foam or anything? Still a wonderfully thought out build with the brakes and reinforcements. Enjoy seeing more

[@EuroGarageOfficial]

I will track it. And it will be getting a proper half cage. But tubing the front, stitch welding etc should be reserved for cars you’ll always be in full saftey gear to drive.

[@quutay]

can you throw more videos please

[@matthewmularoni5919]

Do you have a link to the paint you used?

[@EuroGarageOfficial]

Matthew Mularoni yeah man sure. I’ll drop it in the desc as well. It’s hella pricey though. White Epoxy Activator and Finish Kit, Semi-Gloss Finish, 125 to 225 sq. ft./gal. Coverage, S - 1 Each www.amazon.com/dp/B007IBXOAW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_hNYmDb8RQTSHS

I don't get it. Why white?
