1995 BMW 325is Build Log

What the ever loving fuck?! Who would be possessed to put electrical tape on the shift knob and why?!?!
I believe its to prevent the shift knob from coming off. In my roommate jacobs 318 and my old 325 the knob would come off all the time while driving

So, I did some little stuff here and there. I picked up a new blower motor since it was desperately needed and I also got a new shift knob.
(before you ask, yes its 6spd the listing didnt specify and the pics werent great)
I also got a front plate delete
Then, as a little treat for myself I got a door cupholder. My old 325i had one when I bought it, and I absolutely loved it.
I also purchased the shifter rebuild kit from @Rekpoint and hopefully picking up the z3 shifter tomorrow! Hoping to have the blower motor and the shifter done too.

I thought the only 6spd was in the m3? How is it a 6spd 325is?

5th + reverse = 6

5th + reverse = 6
That makes so much more sense lol

Yep when you shift into 6th, the revs just increase. It almost feels like 4th.

When I said "before you ask, yes its 6spd the listing didnt specify and the pics werent great" I meant the knob itself, not the car haha. Im sorry I should have been clearer.

Hey all! Its been a minute since my last post, but ive been in the business of acquiring parts recently. I was very lucky to be able to pick up these throwing stars and a UUC BBK for my e36 from @ChrisO!!
So for the throwing stars, they are 17x8 square off of an E34 M5. Also the wheel with the center cap pictured has a small crack, so I am hoping to get that welded up when I get the new tires mounted and installed. The SSBC calipers also seem to be in really good condition. I was very lucky because Chris was also able to supply the mounting hardware and brackets and Im planning on having all the stuff cleaned up before I get it on the car.
I was also very lucky because @Rekpoint was able to find me this awesome Eibach strut bar for a pretty good deal! I have some more parts on the way, and I will make some more posts as stuff comes in

Got the brackets for the BBK back from the powdercoater today, they look great!
Currently nothing has really changed about the car, Im still getting some parts here and there so I am kinda waiting to have all my ducks in a row before I really tear into it. But soon it will be time to start the project, and I will be uploading some videos to my youtube channel on the process in case anyone is interested.
