In today's RU-vid Video we’re finally coming back to you with an update on our BMW G87 M2 xDrive conversion project. Spoiler alert: WE DID IT!
Having ‘xDriven’ the front running gear, it was time to get the engine and transmission back in the car and see if we had all four wheels turning. Carefully and precisely, without any swearing at all, the engine and drivetrain were raised back into the car... Enjoy!

If you're gonna make this one of (or "The") Fastest BMW in the World, why didn't you build the engine while you had it out? Ok, you first wanted to test the xDrive. Right, I knew that. Cool project 👍

@@shinymike4301 we will build another engine on the side, allowing us to be able to test the 4wd over at least 5k miles aswell as driving it to have cages, wrapping etc done. Worse aswell if we did a load of engine work and there was an issue we would struggle to pin point the problem with so many areas of the car changed. We try our best to change as little as possible and see the results.

Because first, people including me, just want to see if and how viable the AWD conversion is. That’s obvious. Stop being negative or asking stupid questions.

Making a xdrive M2 2 years before BMW will make theirs is huge! Hopefully will push others to do the same, makes me wonder if the same is possible with the MK5 supra and the G42 M240ix if you could combine both drivetrains and make a supra AWD. Would like a video showing the process or maybe who to reach out to that coded your trans to ask a few questions!

Lol. Converting RWD to AWD using parts from AWD vehicles made from the same company, isn’t that difficult. It does take time, $$, and effort, but duhhhhh LOL. We don’t even know if BMW is even planning on making a future M2 AWD, nor do we know when the next M2 will come out. So duhhhhh, of course someone will make a conversion faster than BMW making theirs lol.

They’re not going to make anymore competition variants in the M2 just like in the all new M5. There will only be a CS version both for the M2 and M5 and the CS version of the M2 will stay as a RWD car still. Even the next M3 and M4 and even the M8 will all be hybrid just like the all new M5 and there will no longer be a competition variant in any of those models neither. Only CS and possible CSL variant’s.

Probably not because BMW already announced the end of the separation of base M and Competition models, and there’s only one M for the future models. If you really want XDrive just buy a M4

Mates, don't hesitate to DM me with any software related questions. I have the first non-xDelete, no-hardware-modded G42 LCI XDrive in the US, swappable between awd/rwd configs. I take my xdrive M240i xdrive drifting on the regular. Tons of videos/shorts on my channel. Love the G80 sound BTW! I am super super excited to see this but there are some safety related caveats you may need to be aware of. I also couldn't help but notice the rear wheels spun up faster than the fronts and I could hear a notification chime (likely an error). The gearbox mechatronics don't much know or care about the transfer case. However, the airbag module and more - do. Additionally, the power steering module does have slightly different mapping. These aren't super super important, but they're things to be aware of.

Doing this because it provides some advantage over the other already xdrive g8x cars or just because ? Curious what would be the weight diff between a g80 and g87 in this case.

Wouldn't the X drive from the M240i X drive fit? If its the same engine as the M3/M4 then the sump just has to change to make place for the drive shafts. BmW does it with the rear drive M3 when converting to the Xdrive derivative
@xPyro_G42
@xPyro_G42 Месяц назад
Right off the bat, certainly not. The G42 transfer case has one less clutch in the pack vs. the G8x cases. The housing is also SLIGHTLY different (rated for more torque). The axles are also thinner. They needed arms and bushings as well which are completely different, and bushings especially are much softer. The software running on the transfer cases is Secure Coding 2.0; so lots of required bits can't be coded without BMW servers.
