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

Does the 'T' stand for turbo then? That would be interesting 8)

Another flood of great pictures - thanks - and good luck with the restoration.

Looks warm down there!

It's really grey and very windy here in the UK.

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.

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

Either way, great work mate

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

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

Awesome.
