Hi I have a bit of a different project I've been working on for a couple of months
Been fitting a 760 t in this
The honda came to me cheap And I already had the volvo sitting in my yard It's received mixed responses so do your worst :) Personally I luv it and can't wait to up the boost a little The s2000 isn't renowned for torque but this one is fun Poly bushed throughout ,bilstien pss9 adjustable shocks ,track pads ,m90 gbox
Welcome :)......that's very interesting, what led you to doing this? Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk
The honda was being sold without engine and the loom had been partially removed It was dirt cheap and not a show queen it would have broken for more than I bought it for The engine I already had and I new they have potential So out with the tape measure and in it went
The most interesting volvo - engined project I've seen since the volvaxo. Nice work and welcome aboard.
Good work there, Fella! :D How has the extra weight of the redblock affected the handling? Bet it's epic fun though! Welcome along btw.
Thanks for positive replies The weight isn't that much diffrence iff internet figures are to be believed Air con and power steering removed the honda gbox is heavier than the m90 So only a few kg,s initial The biggest problem is the hieght of the engine I've wound the coil overs up to give me some clearance but that's upset the handling something chronic it's now skittish crossed with scary To much preload on the springs I have now managed to find a bilstien manual on line with standard ride hieght settings (centre bolt hole to spring perch length) so I will put it back to that then check ground clearance again I may have to fab a sump gaurd
Interesting - I would love your thoughts on the project on my D-TRB (linky below).
Had its first track day at Bedford last month
It performed very well with no issues
My son enjoyed his 1st track day in it and is annoyingly a good little driver with a good feel for the car and what is happening
