Thanks for the complements.

And the reason why?

Its in mint condision and the little rust that i could find is now gone.
The wheel arches on the rear have been replaced and resprayed.
So everything looks like new now.
And the Twotone-color cinda grows on you.
And my friends always get pulled over by the police.
Driving there golf GTI's and other fast lookin cars.
So iam a bit anomenus in trafic.

I have no reason the complanes about the soundsystem too.
Headunit: Alpine 4x60 w
Amp: 2x Philips DAP 4x100 watt RMS.
Front speakers:2xPhilips PRS 10 cm with tweeters on the dash.
Rear speakers: None but iam planning on 2x 20cm 3way philips GTM 300 watt speakers.
Subwoover: 2x150 Rms raveland speakers in a nice compact 18 mm MDF housing.

Got it al tested at 127,5 DB in the car with doors closed.
Srangely it gets easyer on the ears thoug.
(I wonder why that is?

It's an old Soviet 35mm camera that I use... I randomly took it when I was trying out my current digital one

I have some interest in photography, but I don't really have the time

I know I'm breakinjg traditions by not havig a pic of my car, but I need to get it out of the garage to take a decent one

I had a feeling it was a camera! That's what comes from having a photography student for a girlfriend! She has just bought a Nikon F3, if that means anything to you. It's about as good as old-school 35mm cameras get, and the modern equivalent costs about £1800 plus lenses!

cheers

Whell i've just got my car properly tuned on a dyno rolling road.
And my carb.settings were way off.
So my carb. aircorrection jets have been rezised.
And my ignision has been modifid.

I'll try to get a nicer pic. on here later.

But here are the specs.

Norm-power: 58,5 kw (79,5 hp)
engine power: 59.5 kw (80,9 hp)
power loss : 19.0 kw (25,8 hp)
From engine to the wheels.
Max. power with 123 km/h with 5900 min-1

torq. M: 107 Nm.
Max. trq bij 96 km/u. 4610 min-1

The ignision can be modified some more.
Because the restricion was the small hole for the sensor.
So i need to make the hole in the bellhouse bigger.

The endresult is a real smooth engine.
And with a nice torq. curve.
But the only drawback is 3 nm less than std.

I think the differend cam is the blame.
More hp a bit less trq.

The biggest restricion now is the excaust manifolt.
It really could juse a nice 4-2-1 manifolt togetter with a 50 mm low resistance excaust pipe to the back.
So any further tuning has to be in the excaust first.
So maybe that will be changed in the future.
Togeter with an even hotter camshaft.
I hope maybe getting it to 90 hp.
But iam finist tinkerin so far.
Its time to drive this thing!

I'm interested to find these parts too:

Future plans.

-Yellow adjustable konis.
Specially made for the 360 cup here in Holland.
But not cheap 125 euro's eatch.

If you know where I can buy these in Holland or anywhere, can you give me name of company?
I have one friend in Holland, previously he had 300-series Volvo too, and he promised to mail them to me if we can find shop that sells those.

Thank you, I really appreciate it

I just noticed that your 1.4 is only about 20hp weaker than B200K, that sure have to be near in real world performance because your car has such light engine

I really like reading these reports from performcance updgrades

Post by **340customizer** » 23 Jan 2005 02:35 pm
