yep, replicate BMW SA's 745! Now there's an idea for that green e23 Rob!#
Out of curiosity, will the recaro front seats from an e28 fit the e23?

e23 in standard form is a great car but slow in pickup. might modify the head and exhaust slightly. |
Fritz's Bits can help you with a free-flow exhaust system.
Modifying the head..... the words "Schrick" and "camshaft" spring to mind....

The S38 and gearbox would fit in theory, but you might have a problem fitting in the rest of the driveline....

i dont use metrics now, got a nice set of 15 inch cross spokes. i must admit no grip with the metrics even on new tyres. mind you e23s dont go that fast to warrent worrying about.

TRX's, hmm, ****e performance wet or dry.
If you value your car & your life, ditch them before they put in a ditch.
Get imperials, best improvement you can make to your 6 IMHO!
