Any updates?


By the way, why do you have a Volvo battery? ;P

Not really, haven't dealed with the heatercontrols, to lazy and its a pita...

I found the bolts i need for my driveline, found a sensor for the trans, and
found a hub for the BBS, ordered a indicator, need to sort out some more
shit.., like always...
Made a (looooong) list of stuff i need/want to get done with the car.


And something to make you a bit jealous...

I got a(nother) set of KW Turbos as my easter present to myself...
At least thats my excuse to buy stuff i don't need...

Need to calculate the offsets and get adapters made.., now i have like 8 sets of
wheels i can put on the car if i get tired of the style 40.


About the battery, i got it at work, i work at a Volvo/Jaguar/Landrover/Range Rover
dealer.., i got it when i got the car about 3 years ago.
Only checked the water and charged it...
The battery is like 12 years old but its condition is still 8/10
Not only the volvos last forever


See ya

Like you are ever going to get tired of the style 40 <.<

Well, posting to keep me motivated...

Did nothing i would do this weekend...

I'm two months late for TÜV... not good...
The stuff i ordered isn't deliever yet.., lazy companies...

Chanced the roof light, it's the same as the new/old one but with a timer..,

I'm quite exited about that, don't know why...

EDIT: My photobucket won't embed my fancy video, sorry for that.

I won a set of headights on ebay today, mine leak due the accident...
They are from the Omega 3000, so the high beam is separate from the low beam.
They look better and stuff...

I want to fit the factory day running light, but the car doesn't have the plug from
factroy, found the the relais, connector and which cable goes were,
don't looking forward to the wirring, i really fuck that shit...

I maybe post the list of things to do later (if i find it)...

Also have to do a full service on my dads Mitzubish L200 (Strada), engine, trans, axles,
my moms wintercar need service too...

Ciao.

- Well im 8 months so welcome to the club!

- wait... i need a picture of that headlamp! if i remember right there are "2" types of headlamps the one with the !extra! high beam and the one without, are you saying yours has seperate in the MAIN reflector???

[OrangeBlue]

Seems to be a common problem amogst the opel guys

Actually they are the ones you had before you swapped them out for the A1 stuff,
but no one can tell me how they're work, is that "aditional high beam" a fog light or
a just a high beam that is wirred parallel to the main high beam...
Thay came as an option from factory, but the Omega 3000 always had them.

AND I WONT EVEN COMMENT THE IRMSCHER RIMS >:C

As i'm here i may as well update a bit...

I managed to overhead the trans two times last week, so
i changed the transmission fluid this weekend...
The trans stiff shifts when it feels like it, makes funny noises and
if you are in 4th with overdrive and do a kick down, the trans
shifts down but the car doesn't speed up...
Have pics, to lazy to upload them...

So i need a new trans...


The headlights i bought showed up but they are complet shit, broken,
two different brands...


That i tought i cheer me up a little and put my BBS steering wheel in.
Well i tought i'd do so, but the steering wheel woun't come off..


Everytime i do something it gets worse and worse...

[Raka_blakk]

in the 2.6 i had with original headlamps like that, there was a extra button next to the windscreen heater, il take a picture tomorrow, it should be as easy as putting in the button or switch and plug in the lamps, or just wire it yourself with a one way switch/button that goes to got + power on one and a wire to the lamp bulb its self-grounded thats how i have done it with the earlier omegas i've had

[am4nf]

yeah the irmy mv6 alloys are pretty rare in there standard guise

[OrangeBlue]

Got a defect note the other week need to get this thing inspected by the 21 this month...

Haven't found a trans, people are to stupid to loo at the code plate...
Looking for a roof/tailgate spoiler atm.., Irmscher or Zender haven't decided...
Don't want to deal with the car atm...

Nothing happend besides that...



Well, something happend...
I washed my moms daily and cleaned the wheels.
Put the ABS cable and exhaust back in place, they fall off their hangers.

Since the car was nice and clean, i took some pics...


17x7,5 ET28 a. 17x9,5 ET30 Azev A with 215/45 u. 245/35, 30mm Eibach Cupkit,

Lipstick on a pig.

I always wanted one, but didn't wanted to pay 25 bucks, this was
10 and its new. We'll see how long it'll stay.

Since i now have the TÜV/Police of my ass, i may put my wheels on.
