Hello everyone, my name is Pavel and this is my channel - Snail Speed Projects! I am a car enthusiast with passion for classic cars. The content for this channel will be around my 1987 BMW 325i (and other future projects) that hopefully you guys will relate to. I try to do everything myself, limited resources, with attention to detail and on a tight budget.
Pro-tip -- while the manifold is disassembled, you can get ALL of the yellowed cosmoline off by using Aircraft Stripper. It's available in aerosol at most any auto parts stores. Clean/dry, then shoot down the top, let it work for 10 or 15, hose off. It will look like a brand new freshly cast intake. I've done a few. Don't get any on your skin..
Hi Thanks for a great video. I was wondering if you knew how to depin the door side connector that you show at 1:59 - I am having some issues with my power mirrors and I suspect the female side of the connector has been pushed back in the plastic connector and I would like to pull the female socket out of the connector clean it and put it back in but I have yet to find out what tool I need. Thanks in advance!!! Knut
Hola me podias ayudar para fabricarme el cableado del patch a los interuptores de los elevalunas y a los motores de las ventanillas tengo ya los 4 motores y cableados de las puertas me falta la instaalcion desde el patch a los botones de los elevalunas muchas gracias
Great video! I’m in the process of restoring my tech 1 bumper so glad I’ve seen this. Where did you manage to find a non chrome center and right/left corner bumper? I can only find chrome 😩
First of all, thanks for the video, should I install the tie rods or the tie rod end apparatus as E36 in order to attach the wishbone block originally, my wheel is behind, I would appreciate it if you could help me, my project is over, but I only had a problem with the wishbone block. Should I change the tie rod shaft?
Öncelikle video için teşekkürler, salıncak takozunu orjinal takabilmek için rot kolları veya rot başı aparatı E36 olarak mı montaj yapmalıyım, tekerleğim geride duruyor yardımcı olursanız sevinirim projem bitti fakat sadece salıncak takozunda problem yaşadım. Rot milini değişmelimiyim.
On the front fender there are 2 plastic brackets (have to drill holes in the fender as original), then there are holes in the rocker panel that match holes in the side skirt. There are plastic clips that go into the side skirt and then the whole thing clips into the rocker panel holes. There are also plastic grommets that go into the holes in the rocker panel. At the back there 2 holes in the arch lip and the side skirt is clipped in with two plastic push rivets. At the bottom there are plastic clamps that hook onto the rocker panel and screw into the side skirt tabs. One screw that holds the front fender in the bottom.
Thank you for your video. I was about to destroy my good used axle thinking I needed to remove the outer joint. Was about to force off that inner ring where you pack the outer boot. Watched literally every video about bmw boots on youtube and only yours was an exact match. Was seconds away from destroying a piece you couldnt replace!
Your build is absolutely epic! I can't begin to imagine how much time and love you have put into this car. Thanks for the inspiration. I am in the middle of my build and can't begin to tell you how inspiring watching your progress has been.
Good question. It looks original, all original tabs and innards. But I have been told that back in the day there were high quality aftermarket kits that were identical to oem parts but not beige, black. So take it for what it is worth
Hey, Ty really Much for the video, i’ve been searching a video from somebody who went from no power steering to power steering for a long time. I have a 316i (m40) and I wanted to ask if you know if there are major differences between the 4 cyl and 6cyl retrofit
