  • Hi from South Africa - My Volvo

    Hey guys, long time lurker etc decided to finally introduce myself and post some pics of my car.

    1998 Volvo S40 T4

    Setup:
    17" Enkei K-95 9J ET22 wheels
    205/40 Pirelli PZero Nero tires
    Secondhand TA Technix coilovers
    5mm rear spacers for rear ET of +17

    result (excuse the low quality cell pics):




    All the pics I have for now, will take some better ones soon

    I reside in Johannesburg, South Africa and this car - who somehow got the name Stella - has been my love-**** relationship for the past 2 odd years...

    I'm also running a full catless 3" DP and exhaust, a custom FMIC setup and a WMI setup as well, all of which I DIY'd, I try to do mods as much as possible myself in order to learn everything I can.

    Plus it's cheaper lol

    Also recently just stripped down and rebuilt the engine as it was kinda fucked.

    Hope to work some camber into the suspension setup in the future so i can go lower all round and also get going on my BT and full management install as well!

    Any comments welcome!

            Silver is a tough one, in my eyes, to get right when matching wheel color. Your basic options, again in my eyes, are to go full polish or body color faces. Another route is to do a very loud color, to intentionally make it clash, and and get points that way.

            Some examples:

                          snapped these pics quickly (sorry about the cell pics):







                          went lower and added some front camber, now to sort the rear out as well
