V12 Piston Dance - BMW E31 850i - Project Marseille: Part 7

Sreten is a freaking jeweler. The amount of care and dedication he put into this rebuild is overwhelming. Hope she starts up flawlessly on the first try!

He is a Serbian alright. Serbians are like new Germans.

[@dragineeztoo61]

I love how he cleans stuff that doesn't need to be cleaned.

[@williwonkah.9242]

I've followed Sreten from the beginning of his truly epic channel. I can honestly say it's like watching a young enthusiastic kid growing up to be someone you would take home to meet your aeronautical engineering parents. He is epic.

It's funny that he would hate to have carbon fiber trim on his bimmer interior, but his microfiber towels are called 'carbon fiber towels' in every single video I watched. Still love his videos but someone has to make fun of it.

your level of detail and work ethic is truly something else. first changing out the o-ring around the e39 oil dipstick, now putting special lube under the bolts to make the torque more percise... a car rebuilt by you truly deserves a special badge, right on the trunk, and in 50 years time bmw's rebuilt buy you will be the most special and sought after models of each generation.

I not only admire your skills but your humour is hilarious. I also like that you’re not taking yourself too seriously 🎉

[@apoapostolopoulos]

Quick tip from personal experience with ultrasonic cleaner which I believe it will make a lot of difference: boil water with the kettle and pour it inside the main bath - (don’t expect those “home use” ultrasonic cleaners to heat up), place the parts in poly bags mixed with water and cleaning liquid ( you don’t waste too much cleaning liquid and you achieve better result). Keep up the good work, greetings from Greece!

[@ploek]

I love this KZbin-channel so much. I don’t own a BMW or do much work on my own car. But there is something so satisfying with watching you work. I love it!

[@tsatsmana]

You are an artist man. I really feel sad when the video ends and it's pretty much the same for other subscribers. You are blessed with talent mate. In machinery, in story telling, in video editing. You put the effort and there you go. Excellent content!

[@st3althyone]

You are a goddamn legend, Sreten. I haven't seen anyone care for a BMW as much as you do. You have put your heart and soul into every project, and we’re the better for it. Thanks for continually bringing us the best content on KZbin. You look the part air that lovely BMW lab coat, my friend. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Project Marseille is looking to surpass the perfection of Project Chicago, and I want to see all that goodness! Stay safe, and we’ll see you in the next chapter of this lovely story.

[@Majindageta]

Found your channel few months ago, I'm consuming all your content! you set up the bar really high for everyone doing this type of content. Funny, easy to follow and very educational!

[@legioner9]

I am dependent on your videos, Sreten. I watched literally all of your videos from KZbin several times. 😂✌ I admire your work very much. You are an inspiration for all of us who want to really make a difference in this world, really. I mean, you teached many how to take care of the cars, how to work themselves on the cars, how to properly repair them, how to save some money and do the hard work, aaaand at the end, the very satisfying result of a beautiful fully functional car, which is a joy for everyone. P.S. I am waiting for the E32 episode. I really miss that car on the channel.

1. I knew you must have had a huge heater because you were getting some serious mirage in some of those scenes. 2. Now that I know how time consuming it is to clean every single nut and bolt, I'm going to stop asking myself why the videos take so long. 3. After I thought about it I decided that part of what I like about your channel is that you don't over saturate with content. Each video is slick and well crafted and the time between videos keeps me hanging for more. It also feels more episodic which is so important. Keep it up Sreten, can't wait to see you show off the ported heads!

[@ianmunro1427]

The obsession with cleanliness is truly inspiring. Thank you.

I am still wondering how you have only 397K subs. All the auto enthusiasts, alongside with bmw maniacs are maybe not even interested in this videos. This channel should be the bible for the DIY engineers. I am a benz guys but always watch your videos, either with coffee in the morning, or beer in the evening :).

To make your ultrasonic cleaner fluid last longer and to keep smaller parts together you can put parts in to zip lock bags with some cleaning fluid. The ultrasonic vibration will pass through the bag with no issues.

Add a timer on the wall plug for the ultrasonic, if you leave the heating element on, it will heat untill it runs out of water and then cook itself to death.

Precision and detail. Reasoning and explanations. Examples and demonstrations. Measurements and obsessions. presentation with pride and perfection. The best way to understand something, is to assemble one. I would say your understanding of everything you have restored in unequalled by anyone I have ever seen. If the engineering staff at BMW is not aware of you, your knowledge and abilities, they should be.
