It's been years coming. I started building this 1995 BMW M3 over 3 years ago and it is finally done. Well, not really. It still needs a ton of work and even more development. Maybe more than I can give it? Today is the first real shake down on the LS3 swapped e36 with a goal of compiling a list of its issues so I can start dialing it in to becoming a great track car. Because remember this was supposed to be a Gymkhana Grid car that is now repurposed for track events.
A bit of a change up for the content today. Jolly ditched me so a long time homie and I took a stab at the edit. Also my first attempt at track content mostly solo. Lots of improvements needed to me, my media and the car... but we are jamming and having fun!
Follow me on the other things, I promise its not just cut downs from this episode:

@josephschaefer6360 4 месяца назад

I have had and fixed both of those problems in my ls swapped rx8 track car. The fix for the catch can is a ls6 valley cover breather setup. Tons of baffling. I was emptying the catch can every to laps before and it’s once a season now. The fix for the clutch is better heat management around the clutch line. Tons of heat wrap and a shield or two will keep the fluid from boiling and making the clutch not work anymore. I was unable to test both of them with street use, only happened on track.

Dude give yourself some slack. You aren’t a multi million dollar company, you don’t have the help! Your content is always on point, your style is what we want to see, and making car content in CA is a challenge in itself. Just make the content that makes you happy bc we most people literally followed you bc you have swag and are cool, not bc you used to work for hoonigan.

@Harbinger3721 3 месяца назад

I love the vibe of "hey guys I'm doing stuff, come hang out". Learning as you go both in automotive and making content. Love the let's have fun (and frustrations) feeling. It's refreshing compared to the almost scripted vibe a lot of car content has now.

@FrodeAltink 4 месяца назад

Nice to se this car doing what it’s built for! I think you’re doing great with these vlogs. I like watching them a lot. One technical thing to think about is the volumes of the sound. One second it’s very loud music, then very quiet vocal parts and then loud engine noises and so on. A limiter is a simple tool for making the volumes match.

@vin_tra 4 месяца назад

@egibson2266 3 месяца назад

It’s a tad dirty, wouldn’t a proper muffler just make it sound sexy and really not affect the performance, at least at this level?

@megansuefry5408 4 месяца назад

I’m here agreeing with the general consensus. Great content and mix of showing you actually wrenching in your car, talking through the trial and error, showing the track time, and recapping. I want to add that I’ve been a dumb level of excited just anticipating the next video dropping. My car has been giving us fits and finally hits the dyno tomorrow. Thank you for continuing to inspire all of us!

@Raucey 4 месяца назад

Really enjoyed the more technical conversation about you trying to sort out the setup, would be cool to see more of that in the future. One thing I know is much easier said than done, especially when filming outside, but the difference in volume when your talking outside the car then going into you driving on track with the engine noise is quite large.

@vin_tra 4 месяца назад

Yeah audio is a challenge for me!

With how much driving you've done, that amount of fluid in the catch can wouldn't concern me at all. I put an entire quart of oil in my catch can in a 1/4 mile pass... yes I know it's a loose drag motor, but just for perspective. Remember that Smedding motor is a little more race than street, so I think you're good. Just *keep an eye on the oil level*.
