project 360
Posted: 14 Jan 2010 11:24 pm
right some of you will hate me but i dont care lol
now before the hate begins i would like to say i am a drifter but i dont buy volvos cos they are cheap and you can destroy them without caring . . . im NOT like that. i had a 1.4 340 for my first car/ drifter which i loved so i had to look after it to an extent to drive back and forth to my work but still give it abuse but sadly its gone now to someone else as not too long ago i bought Ronnies 360 glt.
yes it is a mk 2 (this is where the hate will probs start) and i am planning on drifting it. it wasnt my initial plan but i cant afford to insure 2 cars so i kept the 360. so now my project begins i dont have any decent pics atm so i will post up tomorrow.
but anyways whats been done so far is i have driven it for 2 weeks and its awesome!!!!!!!! no choke no lumpy running its just perfect for everyday driving
the diff is welded as of last saturday but im scared to skid it lol due to it not being lowered but i have a drift day coming up in feb/march so it may be quite a quick moving project
the plans for just now are;
lower 2" already have springs and blocks and it came with adjustable rear dampers so wind them a bit stiffer
find and fit a bucket seat (only getting stripped out on drift days)
and later on i hope to;
either fit a 2.3 N/A or fit a turbo to the b19
sort rusty bits (only cosmetic) and respray in stanard colour
respray and fit my nice wellers
sorry if this is too much to bear but dont worry im not a chav after a cheap thrill im 19 and have owned 3 300s now and i love them i get quite riled when people see its an old volvo and say its a "tramper" its by no means a tramper.
but anyhow keep looking ill keep updating as i do things and ill let you all know how im getting on with drifting and the car pics coming tomorrow
thanks for looking
