Insane wagon! Are thso the Throphy kit? I just recieved my kit for my e30 M3! Can't wait to install them. -










rebuilt head by Myster-e Performance, headers from IE, powder coated intake and valve cover
new waterpump, timing belt, engine belts, complete exhaust (new 1st section and cat - the old was crumbling apart), IE rear muffler section, rebuilt oil filter control valve, Miller MAF conversion, new plugs, wires, distributor, coil, crank position sensor, thermostat, all three coolent sensors and radiator
Car runs much better and feels/seems much quicker - still a slow automatic AWD
the idle is REALLY uneven - larger cam - sounds cool but makes car very shaky at stop light with automaticLeave a comment:

Every time I stumble upon builds like this, I become immensely jealous of having a garage space where you can take your time and do things properly thorough. Awesome documentation too.
And keep the Recaros! In my honest opinion their some of the best seats to ever meant to be oe. I may be a bit biased though...

What model Recaros are those? they're stunning. what about the fabric? any mods to get them to bolt in?

Wow... you've started with an amazing shell and have shown what it's like to be a true enthusiast. The E46's are incredible, but to me it just blows my mind how meticulous all the work you've done on your cars is. Just lovelyLeave a comment:

the next project on the iX is swapping the head - mainly to get rid of the oil leak that has developedLeave a comment:
