I know haha. But I'm thankfull that I can work in the shop and use all the tools :) Maybe in a few years when I buy a house instead of an apartment.

Does anyone know what axle of diff I should get to cope with approx 400hp? For starters I will weld this one but I would like an LSD in the future. Thanks :cool:
 
So the axles in the rear end will hold 400hp just fine? Only need to get a beafy LSD?
 
look on the left axle tube from the rear.. there must be a Sticker.. if it says 1041 (g80 locker) you're good to go for cheap.. if it says 1031 you need to do something..

But.. i dont like the behaviour of the g80.. i want a truetrac or somethuign similar as soon as my 16v gets T?V :)


If there is no Sticker: do a Burnout.. 2 stripes -> let go over 40KM/h one stripe -> g80 ;)

I took the Volvo to the workshop of a friend of mine and we made a driveshaft adapter. Oh and he owns a Nissan S13 1JZ swap.. HOLY ****! that thing is fast!

Because I bought and installed a 2 post lift to work on I hadn't have much time to work on the 2JZ 940. Still managed to do a few things though:

On the 29th of April I will be going to Japfest Silverstone so I kinda have a deadline for my 2JZ Volvo 940 Build..

I bought a TIG welder and I absolutely love welding with it, I used to only weld with MIG but this looks way better and is more fun to do. The first thing I welded were some aluminum brackets for my intercooler. Took me a few hours to get used to welding aluminum.
