BMW E36 Blog

Hi, Today’s post is about a BMW E36 M3 GTR project. The project has originally started with a BMW E36 320 and it ended up like the following 2 videos. It has under the hood a 3,378 cc 8-cylinder engine and it can provide a 550 hp. I suggest you take a look at these videos. They’re just awesome and if you’re looking for more information about this car, you can Google for "Georg Plasa BMW 320". You’ll find a lot of information about this car.

One of the things that I want you to pay attention to is the sound. Just make sure to turn the sound as loud as you can. Also, pay attention in the second video that the driver is not even using his hand to shift gears. How cool is that ?!!!

Enjoy… I hope you like these videos

Hi Guys,

Today I’ve found this fabulous estroil blue BMW E36. It’s making me feel so bad about my car and about not giving her all the love I could. I’m sure almost (if not all) of you will feel the same after you see the pictures. It’s simply the cleanest BMW E36 M3 I’ve ever seen … seriously. As a bonus to that, the car has 48K miles on it only. Isn’t that awesome? Have you ever seen a cleaner car?

Take a look at the photos and let’s hear your opinions.

This week, I hope I will be back to posting frequency at the normal speed. I hope you’re missing my posts and looking forward to getting more in the future.

In the last couple weeks, I’ve noticed many questions about tinting cars and getting it done professionally. When I decided to give my car a tint, I took it to get that job done professionally. But, After I saw the process, I honestly don’t think it’s hard to accomplish and it was very easy. As a matter of fact, it’s much easier than many DIY’s that you’ll do to your car and best of all, he used WATER as the solution to do the whole tinting, so all you need to get this job done is the tinting film and some extra time PERIOD.

In the following video, you’ll find a simple tutorial that will guide you through the whole process, so enjoy and I hope you will find it interesting:

I’ve published a post and a poll asking for your opinions about creating a new forum on this website that is devoted to the BMW E36 cars only. Since then, I’ve been watching the results and I saw that most of you think that it’s a very good idea. So, I decided sometime ago to start creating that forum and now it’s almost done. You can check the forum here:

BMW E36 Forum

Please feel free to register your account and start using it. I just want to let you know that I still need to:

1. Make some modifications to the forum’s header which I’m not happy with it yet. The orange bar that is covering the car should be moved down a little bit, but it seems to be harder than I thought.

2. Install some mods for the Phpbb3 forum which is going to make using the forum easier and more efficient.

3. Find moderators: I was hoping that some of you will come forward to become moderators on the forum because I’m not sure that it’s going to be a very easy task to do it alone. So, please register your account and shoot me an email. I’m having some people in my mind, but I will wait and see before starting to ask you by names :p

Please notice that the forum is just starting and I’ve updated the settings according to what I feel is right (I’m not an expert in the forums). So, if you think there’s something missing or something that needs to be modified, please feel free to let me know by adding a comment below.

Also, what do you think of the categories? Did I miss anything?

One last thing. I originally thought of the forum idea to allow you to ask questions freely and to solve an important problem that I’m having with the blog. That is, people are using the comment field under the blog posts to ask questions that are not related to the post subject. Starting from now, please post these questions in the forum, not the blog. Thanks for understanding.

Enjoy the forum…

I’m sure the title of this post has dragged your attention and it should because it did the same to me. I’ve discovered that the BMW E36 had an OEM option to get a navigation system with it. It seems the navigation system was a rare option and very expensive at the production time which explains how rare it is. I think it may also have been not very common and that’s why not too many cars have that option installed.

Take a look at this picture:

It’s amazing to find out that a BMW 1993 or maybe older could have this integrated navigation system.

Before anyone asks, I’m not sure if this navigation system is text or image based as I didn’t see it running. All I got to prove the existence of such an option is the above picture and this realoem link. I think it would be very cool if that option could be installed in our cars. Don’t you think?
