hi everyone, not much of a contributing member but thought id share my current car with you all, 2.3 turbo wagon fairly standard for now barring an mbc and upped boost etc, about to be fitted with bigger turbo, injectors, chips, 850r clutch and conversion flywheel amongst other things its currently sporting a 3" stainless custom side exit exhaust (just in front of rear wheel in pictures) with a single box and no cat. Suprisingly not too obnoxious until into a bit of boost then it gets hilarious. big old volvo buses arent everyones cup of tea but the speed for money is amazing and they love to be on opposite lock, will update with more info/pictures when more interesting things are done, thanks for reading guys.

Picked up a new locker this week so can begin modding it to lock at all speeds, finished clocking turbo for redblock fitment, just need to fix a bracket for the wastegate, once the diff's changed it'll be going in for new downpipe and the ttv flywheel and 850r clutch to be fitted. Took a cheeky little pic before I left for work this morning photo upload sites

Super looking bus, looks very similar to mine! The wheels look like banded stock steels? They look spot on, I'd really like some big diameter steels for mine.
I'd be interested to see where you go with the mods, your plans are what I had in mind for mine. Where did you get your chips from? What turbo have you gone for?

Thanks, yeah they're banded stock ones, mod wise I've got an angled flange 16t and tlao chips. I'll be upgrading injectors and changing to an 012 amm as well but need the other bits sorting first.

Cool, generally walking the dog/kids at the hub, so your bound to see it, took the tow bar off this morning and debated on the mud flaps but decided to keep them, just needs a wash now. screen capture tool

Haven't posted much for a while but cars been running great until recently when my turbo let go. Took the opportunity to make a few upgrades and she'll be back in daily action from tomorrow, should get some more pictures up soon with a few more details. Needless to say I love my fabricator though, especially when he puts out work like this. image hosting more than 5mb

Hoping to see more on this. Just picked up a 94 LPT SE. How much did the wheels set you back? They look ace.
