S38 turbo e30 Hartge H35-24 H bomb

[e30austin]

Coming from you is great!

I know you have a e28 m5.
If you want to push power up.
I recommend a Dinan chip 293hp 299tq
open exhaust with Motorsport snake headers.
The BMW headers made a big difference in response and power!!!
I also noticed a difference in MSD ignition.
I also had installed 272 cams intake and exhaust. I wanted to install 280 cam for intake. I would have to remove head and have Vac MotorSport port and polish head plus install better valve springs to take the new cam.
I have plans to up grade the m88/3 in the future for N/A power from Vac Motorsport. I would love to see 420hp N/A.
I did install a Split Second mass air kit. I’m still ify about it. They claim withe up grades I did it should be at 320hp.
The engine rives to 7200 rpms on a 410lsd 2800lbs.
my friend Frank has a 1988 e24 M6. He said it doesn’t have the same power and handling of e30. He said the e28 5 series has a better handling than the e24.

my S38 has the Dinan chip as it is, and it made a huge difference from stock.

mine is due for timing chain service, based on age, so when i pull it apart, i may install some different cams. the S38B35 is very neutered feeling, in comparison to an M88, which had hotter cams and different timing gears.

when i changed the engine in my M5, i tried installing a set of the eBay M88 headers, but they wouldn't fit at all - the flanges were completely warped. i may try and find a different set to install in the future. euro bumper conversion will be happening first. :)

I hope to see the m88/3 in your m5. If I see a real set of euro m88/3 snake BMW Motorsport I will send you message on her or on facebook.

don't make sure the trailing arm reinforcements don't rub the fuel filler hose before powder coating them.

Thank for the tip. I’m not going to powder coat the subframe and control arm. I going to paint them.

[e30m3s54turbo]

I painted the subframe blue. I had to add some rubber around brake lines. I will be buy DSS rear axles, $1,700. I red they can go up to 700hp. That means something else will break.

[e30m3s54turbo]

I was able to put on the subframe and modify the serrated camber plates. I had to grind the out side serrated plates to fit. I was able to clear the rear inner fender by 14mm. Before it was going turn on inner fender. Remember the tire is a 275-40-17 Toyo RA1 tire. I was test fitting today. I still need to install ECS steel braided lines.

[e30m3s54turbo]

bought more up grades parts the projects.

[e30m3s54turbo]

I add the new rubber fuel hose to my car. It was a pain in ass to do with subframe on.
I was to able to get my blk m car to run 💯.

congrats on both accounts, that is a great feeling. i bet the filler hose sucked to install with your modified subframe

When I was installing the subframe frame back with control arms on and differential. That’s when I noticed the hose had cracks on it. I ordered it right away. I didn’t want to take the rear off after using 4 floor jacks to install again. It was hard by myself. The two next two e30’s will have new hoses before up grade to suspension.

On the blk m car it 90% the internal fuel was toast.
i never had a pump go this bad in one of my e30’s.

My fuel pump failed also but it didn't look as bad as yours. The pre-filter crumbled into dust. I'll be doing my rear subframe soon, good tip, I'll be sure to do my filler hose while it's out.

It was a learning experience to learn from.

I been stuck getting the blk m car on the road. I have driven it for 33 miles on it with out dying on me. I’m having charging problems. I need to check ground wires and maybe add a couple more.

I been lagging on working on the red Barron
I been thinking upgrading big brakes to the the blk m. Of stead of ordering an other CAtune e30 M3 front AP Racing brake kit 330x28. I’m thinking of contacting Ryan Castro to get me a real AP Racing big brake it 330x34 with J hook rotors. I looked into them.

I adding headlight adjusters. I was able to was to order parts and install them some parts. I will need to fish the lines Through fire wall. It is not easy to do when engine is in the way.

I thought I installed the headlight wiper stalk year ago.
I was wrong. I installed it. I will need to add the rest of parts on.

[e30m3s54turbo]

I will be installing me headlight wiper kit the blk m. I found out my fuel adjustable regulator was bad the vacuum line to it was shooting fuel out of it. That’s why my car couldn’t not start after two or third start.
I also bought new axles for my red Barron. I going to buy ssr 700hp axles. Probably I will in the future.
