oh ok, tomorrow i have to call the mechanic and i will ask him to check why the car only goes up to 145KM >_>

 

Let me know what happens.

 

I sure will, as soon as i call him tomorrow i will post what he thinks it might be

 

ok, so i called him, and i told him about it and he said that ir might be because i havent changed the gas filter and the air filter, that if that doesnt fix it, then he has to check whats wrong

 

Could be the problem. If they are old and need to be done anyway have it done.

 

oh yes they are old, 11 years old , well i found a volvo turbo grill for 120 dollars on the internet, and like always, the rims for this car are hard to find, so i will have to order them or something

 

Im waiting for my Buddy to give me a # for a place for you to call for rims.

My buddy said he would sell you his but not sure where you are located.

hey tech! im actually in central america, but if i buy them, your friend will be shipping them to my aunt in FLORIDA, so its no problem, also, how much is your friend asking for the rims? also, does your friend want to sell me his grill? for his grill to fit my car it would need to have 5 holes vertically, and 10 horizontally.

 

I will ask him how much.

I think his grill might be different and I doubt he is selling it. He has the european conversion.

 

i think its different also because he has a 7 not a 9 series, well you ask him how much for the rims and ill wait for you to tell me. of course i will need to see better pics first and also he needs to put it in ebay so i can buy them in a secure way

 

I will call him tomorrow.

 

Ok, thanks!! tell him all of that, and the pics because i want to see if the rims have any scratches or anything like that

 

I called him today. The rims are TSW 18's with tires. He wants $1250.00 for them.

If you are want to no more let me know and I will PM you his E-mail address.

 

I asked a friend of mine who has a volvo like mine about the rims and he said that the more that my car can take are 17x7.5 without changing anything in the suspension, so tell your friend thanks but no thanks. Also one question , i think i found a volo 960 shift ****, would that fit my car? and also a sunvisor...

 

His suspension is the same as yours. They would bolt right on. But I will tell him.

Is your overdrive button on your shifter?

What year 960?

 

Yes, the overdrive button is in my shifter, and "recently dismantled 1996 volvo 960" so from 1996, and also would the snvisor fit?

 

Neither will fit as far as I know. The shifter not at all. The visior match and see.

The rims my buddy has is the offset to match the stock wheels. Also remember his car is lowered as well.

 

oh, so ill have to see about the visor, i got a turbo grill for 75, and also the rims are cool and everything, but they are way out of my price range, i was thinking more like 600, so thats why im getting TSW 17 X 7.5

also what does the GLE means on volvo's?

also, im going to buy a caliper paint kit, so my calipers wont be color RUST hehe, what color should i paint them? blue? red?


EDIT: ATTACHED PICTURE OF THE SUNVISOR(so you can see how bad it was) also, PLEASE let me know what color is this sunvisor, i say its dark tan and some people say its grey

i think this is the same color : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MakeTrack=true

 

GLE im not exactly sure. I don't keep track of stuff like that.
Cool with the rims.

Im a big fan of Blue for the calipers. But I used engine paint

If you look under the hood on the Metal place there is a 4 digit code that is the interior color code.

 

ohhhhh ok, thanks ! yeah and i found some cool rims for 120 each, look......they are exactly like that, but in silver/grey, not crome
