 this lives under.....  this! no idea of power (quite a bit I imagine) because I don't know what language the site is written in! sleepy enough? I can translate! (it is swedish by the way) The car was given to the owner by a neighbour 7 years ago. It had now been standing for a few years and he thought it would fit as a "dynobench" for the engine he was building. The engine is a B23ET from a Volvo 760 -84 model, with stainless steel valves and harder Bugpack valvesprings. SPM H-profile rods and midified turbo pistons. Modified truck intercooler. Last reply: Will not translate "biljävelen" but bil=car jävelen= some guy in a slight warmer place is for sale without engine. Carburettors sold. Looks like it was a non runner. Says something about carburettor problems, and mounting injection, but wanted to do that in the car it was ment to be in. Did not want to do that work an that beater. Jarle thanks for that  ! I can use babelfish now I know what language its in pity it didn't run, kinda rules it out as a sleeper. not gonna toast much off the lights with no engine is it!  this does run, I've seen the vid. just making up for the earlier foul up  ^^ this runs this VV  great stuff! |

Anyone got any pics of that Daewoo Nexia (is it the Nexia? The one based on the Mk2 Astra)...
outside - VX 'snowflake' wheels as featured on many special edition Astras, slightly faded red paint.
under bonnet - 2.0 16v redtop at 190bhp or thereabouts.
was on ebay about 6 months ago, also had its own website.

Hopefully my Viva will be a bit of a sleeper when she's done:   Just got a Courtenay Sport T3 turbo manifold for her too. |

Mine is getting there though without forced induction is a bit tame compared to most cars in this thread. However, as long as it upsets new Audi drivers on the A303 (they seem to like trying to pee me off) I'll be happy. Anyway, here goes.  Not as clean as that now, couple of rust scabs appeared in variou places but still solid.  Something to give it a bit more get up and go, 2.9ltr 24 valve Cosworth V6.  Fit's nicely. Hardly braking new boundaries with this one though.  Almost there. Just a bit more faffing around and it's done (apart from brakes, springs, shocks and an exhaust! More on my website (link in sig).

Theres a couple in this pic  This commodore is the daily driver of the owner of alot of KE20 Corolla, his main two at the moment are sleepers, one has a ford 6 cylinder equivelent to the one in Nightmare racing's wags(weighs about half though and slightly better motor) and another has a RB30. This commodore has a Alloy Lexus V8(1UZFE) which has been modded a fair bit and turbo'd which should be about 350-390BHP.  |

We don't we get the Monaro rebadged as a Vauxhall and sold through selected dealers What we do get is quite a few Holden Commodores (our Omega shape version - see earlier in thread for picture of lotus engined Omega) imported normally the GTS GTSR versions couple of specialists in the UK seem to make a living out of bring em in Not sure how nightmares misses car got here but there are always a few odd ball cars that gets personally imported |

I knew you had the Monaro's rebadged as Vauxhalls, I was just curious about the commadores. You also have Opels such as the Astra rebadged here as Holden. Just out of curiosity, are there many Ford falcons in Europe? I have seen a few posts on here about them but wasn't sure.

Pretty much most of em are like this GTS with a Vortec supercharger  Just out of curiosity, are there many Ford falcons in Europe? I have seen a few posts on here about them but wasn't sure. not a scooby as I've never been a ford fan |
