Thanks PM'd you about this already, but these are very rare.
This project is still ongoing, the B18E had to go and FT is coming along nicely... With a bigger turbo, Vader heritage...

Yes, this is one of the original Volvo bodykits. Volvo didn't manufacture too many of them. The kit also includes small wheel arches but I didn't install them.

Re: Wanted: Bunch of Turbo parts
Anyone wouldn't happen to have a complete wiring loom from two ecu's to engine? I've got the orange ecus. My wiring loom is... Well, pretty much a lost cause.

Wanted: Bunch of Turbo parts - *no longer needed*
Hi
Turbo conversion (87 ES to 89 Turbo) closing in. Now I need these parts (more to come later I think):
-Larger radiator
-all water hoses in decent condition
-all air hoses for turbo
Tell me what you can offer, I'll need them posted to Finland.
edit: got the parts for now...

Re: Bonnet seal rattling
Actually Captain Slow got it right. It wasn't the seal after all, it just changed the airflow that the trim stopped rattling. I noticed I was missing several of the trim fasteners. So Jim, you got those?

Bonnet seal rattling
I've got problem with rattling noise in speeds over 110kmh. I noticed that the seal between the engine bay and bonnet makes the noise as air rushes to the bonnet air intake. I already tried to lower the bonnet as low it wen't but it still makes the sound. After I removed the seal completely the ratt...

Not too fond of the 2-strokes. Though the GT's looks nice.

That might well be the case. Don't know if the newer type bezel even fits to the older column?

Re: Lock barrel replacements
The early types have ignition lock barrel that is shorter than on later models. Therefore the underside plastic cover is also different. I had to buy new lock for ignition and now the old cover won't fit properly

Re: 480 Turbo Sports Exhaust Silencer-£130
Well it looks interesting. I've always wondered If I could remove the old type silencer and insert a shorter muffler that goes straight from the rear axle bend to the rear. Straight pipe gives a bit too much noise for my taste... But for a racer why not...
