E30 M50 tear down kinda thing
-
Question- how should I effectively take my radiator core support off? Hack it off? Mine is kind of bent, so I at least have to build the bottom part custom. Hopefully my front end comes together and lines up...
I cut the middle section out first, leaving only the 4 corners. Then from there it's just drilling out tack welds. My lower part was so rusted that I couldn't even find the tack welds, so I just used an impact chisel on the seams. The tops where the fenders sit on was easy, but the lower parts were kind of a pain. I pretty much hacked the bottom ones off. Because drift car.
When you pick up those motor mount arms you're welcome to swing by and check it out.

That video's rad as shit. I've seen it before. I've also seen that E36 before, but not sure where.
Theres a video of an e46 doing a roundabout a couple times with the exact same color scheme, who is also from the same team as the e36, which might be what youre thinking of? But yeah, the whole JBB channel is filled with sweet foreign drift footage.
Also, Jeff and his lady stopped by for a bit while torquing the head to ARP specs and the head no longer leaks

Good guy Jeff is always down to help.
