85 Euro 320i Tranforms (Hartge H35) + H bomb

Is this your project thread or is this your "show off" thread?...
Impressive so far.

Not trying to show off. I m trying give Hartge info on H35 what the did back in the day.

A few weeks ago I picked up a m30 b34. It needs to be rebuilt. I need to find a ecu and engine wire harness.

It's a 4 door black 1988 C2.5. 71k miles. Very nice to drive, pulls well for a 25 year old car.

I just picked up a set of these brakes, the last component I need to have everything 'factory'. I'm not putting them on the car as the 4 pots going on will provide better stopping power and with a care so rare, I'm keen to be able to stop quickly.

Also picked up an Alpjna C2 recently, might fit them onto it :-)

That is good you are putting a better brake kit on your rare H35.
You might put the big brake kit on the Alpina C2 that's good. What year and what Alpina C2? Is it a C2 2.5 or C2 2.7?

Another rare piece I never knew existed! So cool. :)

Thanks, Matt.
I wish I could put this on Alpina B6 3.5 clone car.

Here some pics next to a stock e30 brake kit.






The Alpina caliper has a big piston then stock.

Oh man that is awesome! Are those rotors something you can buy easily or are the specific to the alpina/hartge kit?

Hi Zack.
I am going to do some research on the brake kit. I will email you if I find out any thing.

[e30m3s54turbo]

I was wrong about the Hartge and Alpina rotors being the same. They are different. The Hartge cooling fins are on back side of rotor. I think the Hartge rotor is a better cooling system.



The Alpina's cooling fins are front of rotor. The calipers and master are the same.



I took some pics starting to the left is e36 M3 rotor, middle Alpina rotor and right side e30 M3.


Side to side L Alpina rotor and R e30 m3 rotor.

Here is a Alpina big brake kit. The kit is not complete. I am going to use a 750il master. The brake lines I will make.
This is my second set of Alpina big brake kit I bought. The first I installed on my Hartge H26. Hartge big brake kit is so very rare hard to find. Hartge did not sell as much as Alpina did. There is no differance between Hargte and Alpina big brake kit. The only thing that is staped is the rotors. One big brake kit would say Hartge or Alpina on rotor.

Beefy piece! nice.

Yes it may be beefy. I am sure will not fail under hp stress to come.

Those welds look great! Makes me realize how truly awful I am at welding...

I feel the same. My welds don't look like that. He did awesome job. I am glad you sold your e28. It was tempting.

Im just honored it is sitting on the same table as all those epic Hartge parts, much less going on the same car!

Thanks, Zach
I can't wait to try it out.
