    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.IMG20191017131237.jpg

    (before you ask, yes its 6spd  the listing didnt specify and the pics werent great)

    I also got a front plate deleteMVIMG20191017170818.jpg

    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.IMG20191017131231.jpg

    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.

        5th + reverse = 6

              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!!

                  IMG20191201131451.jpgIMG20191201131526.jpg

                  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.
