    I will be swapping engines as most of you know. I need a list of all I want to change on the car while the engine is out. Here is my list so far.

    Front/Rear main seals
    Front/Rear cam seals
    timing belt
    water pump
    oil pump
    oil pickup
    oil pan gasket
    head gasket
    head bolts
    all rubber hoses on engine
    accessory belts (getting rid of AC I think)
    thermostat
    dist. coil
    dist. cap
    dist. rotor
    clutch kit
    clutch fork
    tranny seals
    all shifter bushings
    flexdisc
    center support bearing

    What else? :)

    Will

    ADD: Motor mounts
    Transmission mounts
    Of course along with clutch... Pressure plate, throwout bearing, etc.
    23mm Brake Master cylinder (ala e30 m3) and the line needed to connect it
    Clutch master cylinder
    Clutch slave cylinder

        Any suspension stuff on the front end.

            control arms and control arm bushings were replaced 20-25k ago, as were tie rods. Should I go ahead and change the control arms just because the inner ball joint on the CA's are hard to get to?

              I get parts cheap from the dealer. Plus, I have to change the pickup, oil pan and gasket anyways so why not? I'm getting the engine from an iX so thats why I need to change the oil pan and pickup.

                    What do you need I have it, ALL + some more.

                    BTW it is close to official I'm going to Part my IX if some buys something that makes it worth while,

                    BTW again your list looks like your car will run for another 200k if you change all that.
