    Forgot to share this update:







    The blue center caps - I am not sold on the blue lug bolts - they are different blue and add a little too much blue. Thinking silver, chrome or glass black lugs instead.

    Opinions????

    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 automatic

    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...

    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 lovely

    the next project on the iX is swapping the head - mainly to get rid of the oil leak that has developed
