Re: Volvo 340R EVO 3 Update 07/08/09 Coilovers!!!
The reflectors are different, due to the fact of RHD and LHD. How could that be changed easily?volvodspec wrote: and beside that you can quite easaly convert rhd headlights to lhd

The glass has a different pattern for the beam.

The reflectors are also DEFINITELY different, I ended up with a LHD one when I bought some new ones to refurb a set

Re: Volvo 340R EVO 3 Update 23/09/09 4 Pots
Due toweather and other commitments work has been slow on the grey car up until now where it should speed up a fair bit.
Been working on my front brakes the last couple of days.

Re: Volvo 340R EVO 3 Update 07/08/09 Coilovers!!!
Well due to other commitments etc time recently on this car has been getting thin. Although i have been having some components made in the background, so i picked them up earlier and spent a bit of time on the car.
Firstly i fitted the longer studs to the front hubs which is dead easy, more of a pain on the back!! The studs are around 30mm longer.
Drilled hubs out to 14mm to accept the impreza studs. Then used a flanged nut and a steel spacer to wind the studs in.
Next i picked up my suspension components!!
The problem with sitting a 300 on its arse on the front with standard rolling diameter wheels is that it ends up being sat on its bump stops with no travel, so my solution is as follows!!!! Test fit tommorow.
