Super cool, you don't hang around between projects. Seeing as you called it an iXT, does the T stand for turbo

Does the 'T' stand for turbo then? That would be interesting

No....It's an 325iX Touring.

First Round: Petrol- and Breaking-liquid tubes:



Sometimes it's to stuff...



On the front…



…in the half…



…at the back, near the back „T“.



The “WÃarschen“ were in a bad situation:



…and further tubes that will be installed tomorrow after the petrol deposit.

Today was a busy day as we were requiered to clean up mechanical pieces.
Al least, part of the installation of the petrol Tank was in.....



The Tank with it's new colour, and with the tube for the gases ready to enter.

WOW, man thats amazing, i thought the M3 was amazing, but this looks like a step, by step "how to build a e30" from the factory. Good job and keep those pictures coming!!
I have one question, do you refurb all the old parts that you remove from the car?, or fit new stuff. The reason i ask is that it must be really hard and expensive to find plastic clips and heat shielding for the e30 etc.

[klobuznik]

we try to refurb most parts...but those "other" parte we take them from other e30 !!

[Tom944]

Wow klobuznik. I love your project. So much detailing, very nice!!

[m3ben05]

So do you do these projects for yourself or are you doing them for customers?

Either way, great work mate

[Gouki]

Uppps. Before continuing with the „Ix“ Proyect, we helped a M3 Cecotto with:



...a new „handmade“ electrical cable for the engine.

[Hyperion]

Hi klobuznik
Any more updates on the IX project? or are you still busy with the Cecotto and its wire issue?

[klobuznik]

I'm afraid not. The "Chief Technician" will be 'grandpa in short. Therefore the project is a bit paused !

[Hyperion]

cool, , tell the chief tech , congrats

[Royalratch]

Awesome.

Are the parts you use new or cleaned? Like the trim and mechanicals...?

Awesome.

[klobuznik]

cleaned !!!!!!!!!!

[tristan325]

You are a god. When I win the Lotto I'm bringing my 87 Sport over for you to rebuild!!!

[maxfield]

Looking good

Don't suppose the Evo sport is for sale. I saw one advertised in a magazine for 48k euros.
