sweet

Not my favorite wheels or color of car but it's still a sweet deal.

reldred · 02-12-2010, 09:49 AM

I would trade every single thing I own to have that car.

I'm in love.

JohnMc · 02-12-2010, 10:24 AM

Neat as a pin.

I wonder how the stock 1800 radiator keeps up with the T5 and its 330 hp. Guys on the 1800 list say the b20 needs more cooling after around 200 hp.

Open deck aluminum block, modern efi, and much higher efficiency probably makes it not an issue.

My 240 radiator couldn't quite keep up with medium to long highway pulls during the summer.

I'm willing to bet the guy doesn't really beat on it for extended periods.

My bone stock B20E 1800E used to overheat in stop and go traffic on hot days. Had to turn on the heater and swelter.

The PV does that too, or did, until I put an e-fan on it.

But that's air flow, not coolant flow.

norcal505 · 02-12-2010, 04:20 PM

thats pretty clean, not feeling the rims or colour (if its not original).
but wow, that engine bay looks clean as hell.

jld45000 · 02-12-2010, 04:25 PM

Color looks to be original. Rim are not.

D-Man9000 · 02-12-2010, 05:48 PM

I can only stand to drive my ES around in the fall and spring. In the Summer it's just far too ****ing hot.

02-12-2010, 11:59 PM

Wanna AC for it?

D-Man9000 · 02-16-2010, 04:14 PM

Nah, that won't really help. It's hot because the engine runs super hot. We took the AC out for a reason

fige · 02-16-2010, 04:32 PM

amazon used to overheat while stop and go traffic. put on a 1800s fan for more airflow. that fixed it pretty much

Vol242vo · 02-16-2010, 06:48 PM

Wow! What a clean swap, personally I LOVE the color!

oldschoolvolvo · 02-16-2010, 07:01 PM

+1 so clean, can't even tell it's turbocharged
