Phase 1
Build Process
Disassembly - removal of the interior trim, mechanical and electrical components, power train, and exterior panels leaving a bare steel shell.
Blasting/Pyrolysis - removal of the paint, seam sealer and underbody coating with a combination of blasting (crushed glass) and heat treatment (pyrolysis).
Bodyshell Fabrication - the shell is fixed onto a Celette metal frame to ensure it matches the factory measurements and cannot flex. Extensive metalwork returns the chassis to a pristine condition and prepares it for the upgraded components and new carbon fibre prepreg body panels and trim parts. With the original body panels removed, the latest anti-corrosion and paintwork-protection products are applied, including a protective hot zinc coating to the underbody.
Phase 2
Engine - hand built to Redux's exacting standards and specifications. Choose from either a re-engineered and upgraded S14B25, or Redux’s redesigned and re-engineered alloy S14B27 engine*.
Electronics - Raychem engine, main and rear wiring looms with Deutsch connectors, managed by a MoTeC M130 engine control unit (ECU) and two MoTeC 30 power distribution modules (PDMs).
Interior Trim - choose from a selection of high quality fabrics and finest hides* to compliment your cabin: comfortable, functional, and visually stunning. Bespoke billet aluminium and carbon fibre prepreg trim parts available*.
Dry Build - all significant components are test fitted on the shell to ensure a perfect fit before paint preparation.
RTP Carbon Fibre Body & Paint - Redux’s bespoke ready-to-paint (RTP) carbon fibre prepreg body panels and trim parts undergo over 700 hours of paint preparation, application, sanding and polishing. Wet sanding by hand removes any orange peel - dimples in the lacquer - ensuring a mirror-like, flawless paint finish.
Final Assembly - with all the new exterior and interior parts prepared and checked off, rebuilding the M3 begins.
