The 242 has been getting in the way and I finally found some time to build a dolly for it. I need the shop room to work on “working” vehicles. The square tubing was free so I it designed around that. Got some 1.75” DOM tubing to slot into the bumper mounts. Then the bumper bolts hold it in. So...

...on your new(to you) car. I posted this in my project thread but thought it would be a good idea to post here. Whoever did this is an idiot. Thats all. Off to order a new timing belt! And yes, I've been driving it around, but not now that I've seen this.

Hey guys, I know I don't post much anymore, but I was just cleaning up some old files on my computer and found a folder with a bunch of CAD drawing files for volvo and some other(s) exhaust and intake flanges, also some T3 flanges and Tial as well. Should be good for waterjet cutting or CNC...

So I'm finally starting to wrap up my build. So today I'm going to tighten down my turbo CHRA because it was free to spin in the turbine housing for mock up(I bought it this way off a kijiji guy) First of all, apparently this turbo was unused and only used to mock up, and the guy bought a...

I was procrastinating studying for a midterm and was thinking of an easy way to make Group A style camber plates, using the least amount of materials, and simple repeat-ability. Now these don't have proper dimensions. Just throwing my thoughts out there. These are how the 240 plates looked like...

Does anyone know if the stock smaller of the two driveshaft for the early 240, with the M46 has a different diameter than the late model behind the M47? I'm kind of doing things all at once so I have a driveshaft out of my M47 parts car, but it will be going into the M46 242, behind a T5. Time...

1981 242 with a B21A, but at least its standard. Shes a little rusty but I'm going to do my best getting rid of it! For you southerners out there, that red stuff protruding out of the paint is the "rust". Should be fun, sure it had to snow storm the day I went to get it. Oh yeah the...

So, I was bored and procrastinating my school and started working on this. I used a Nathan manifold for reference, but its by no means 100% accurate. So I started out with two flanges, and kind of guessed by eye where the turbo should go. I was just routing them(or attempting to) the same...

Hodginsa's: Project Athena Hey all, for those who don't know, I used to be Crazy0000 and I had a 91 black 240 that I turbocharged years ago, then megasquirted, and DD'd for a few years. Theres a project thread about it here... http://forums.turbobricks.com/showthread.php?t=134164 Day 1...

I can't embed it sorry... but I promise its awesome. Friend filming/editing, and my other friend driving. Volvo of America contacted him over this video and they want him and the driver to go to New York for a meeting. True story, he texted me today telling me. Can I say jealous...

Not sure if this is a common problem, but one time when the site was going really slow I went to check a bunch of PMs I had. After I checked them all and had no more unread ones, my notifications still reports 1 unread message, but it doesn't exist. Its not really that big of deal, just don't...

A tree fell on my girlfriends corolla and she's car hunting now. She found a nice s40 on kijiji, 2003 with 252000km. Does anyone know a good price for this car? And how is the reliability of them? I know they have a mitsu engine and all that. But it would be a nice small car for her if they can...

Basically I'm looking for a co-op for my program, Bachelor of Tech - Automotive and Vehicle Technology at Mcmaster. I need to do a 4 month(now), then an 8 month after more classes. I'm really looking everywhere for a CAD based job, specifically using CATIA because I love using it, and I pretty...

Everyone thinks I'm neurotic for noticing the slightest things in my car, but anyway. Just recently I've been noticing the my shifter moves to the right when I release the clutch, or accelerate in first or second, sometimes in third but not often, and I think it has to do with the rear axle...

Om Nom Content. That is all.

So, anyone know whats going on here? PW and DC jumping from a value to 0 over and over in near WOT(could be my WOT). http://www.hodginsa.com/mega/wtf.msl is the log file, its big, but just go to max RPM.
