So I have a cracked wheel on my C30, and I'm going to get a new wheel installed. Can I remove the pressure sensor from the old wheel and install it in the new wheel?

So, I'm trying to figure out what wheels to use over some big fat calipers and discs. Word on the street is that Nova/Sirius wheels are the way to go. Right now, I'm running MSW 15x7ET12 wheels on the front. I remembered that I have a spare Nova in the shed, along with more MSWs and some MultiX...

Cars lining up on the grid. JVL and I both drove my car. We got five runs each, and Graham got two fun runs, and said it was the best $4 he ever spent. While JVL was driving, I took pictures and movies, and of course, while I was driving JVL smoked ciggies and BS'd with the medical crew. JVL...

Question is thread title. Anybody thought about this at all?

Hey look! I can haz project! The weekend was spent welding up axles, and machining them. Adam Crane is getting a Volvo Dana 30 in his Corolla, and I'm getting a 4Runner axle in the Red Car. Adam's going to Oregon Trails Rally on the same weekend as the IPD meet, and his axles were supposed to...

New problem today: 86 240 NA, manual trans. My fuel pump relay is momentarily cutting off power to the pumps (i.e. clicking off/on) when the engine moves back and forth. I know there is some circuit where the ignition ssystem is supposed to tell the fuel pump relay when the engine is rotating...

I picked up this engine a few weeks ago, and just got it apart this weekend. There's rust in #1 and #5, and the leftover coolant in the waterjacket was all rusty, too. Plus, there's still oil in the oilpan, so I have to drain that before I tear down the shortblock. And it looks like...

JVAB front struts, now available in Kawasaki green! Boxed Volvo a-arms, also available in Kawasaki green! Still working on the brake plumbing, need to reattach the sway bar and tie-rod ends. Need to reassemble the motor (waiting on that headgasket!), drop it in, and turn up the boost.

So I'm fitting up my new front struts: It appears there there are different varieties of spindle nuts on the 240s. My car currently has the kind with the groove in the top of the spindle shaft, where the fat washer is keyed into. The spindles that are going on do not have this groove. Since I...

So, I stripped my engine down last week. Why? It's like this, see... I was drivin around last Dismember, and my car starts makin a funny sound, kinda like a rod bearing, but it was only over 2500, so I just jept driving it, and tryin to keep it under 2500 and all. So that lasted for for about...

OK, since I was threadjacking something about a 16V distributor, I thought it'd be better to discuss this in the appropriate place. So, as an alternative to spending loot for an EDIS setup, I thought it'd be better to just use the stock LH 2.4 60-2 crank sensor and flywheel, and output the...

I just got the thing bolted up today. Note the super cool Volvo 2.95 Camaro T5 Ford Sierra Cosworth GpA tranny mount, and the custom quick-change bellhousing made by me. I'll get a picture of the shifter location inside the tunnel tomorrow.

Was: 2.2 rev limit ... JACKED! Anybody know how to do this? :???: With my longer rods, lighter pistons, and new turbo, I keep hitting the rev limiter. I mean like FAST! This thing REALLY want to rev, and I just have a T-cam. It feels like it could go past 7k real easy. Any ideas on how to do...

John V put this article up on specialstage.com, I'm reposting it here, coz it's about a Volvo. A sick, sick Volvo. Warning! Lots of pictures, and it's in Swedish. http://www.pukema.com/bilsport/container09-1.html

We've had this discussion many times, but now, I'm phrasing the question a little differently. If I have bore sleeves put in a redblock, what is the absolute maximum bore size that the bore spacing will accomodate? Specifically, can I go up to 102.4mm? There is a huge range of off-the-shelf...

Hey y'all! I've been absent from Tbricks for a while, workin, goin to school, gettin married, etc. However, this past weekend, I finally got the new engine in place. Check it out! The engine is a B23F with a forged crank, Eagle I-beam 6.125" rods and forged CP pistons with 35mm pin height...
