    Thumbs up no probs!

    i dont mind as long as the clutch bolts straight to my 98 c70!
    an 850 r clutch is exactly what im after, some say they have stronger springs and are rated to 350lbs torque :-)

    exellent!

    i must say i am quite impressed with how the big girl can move! i looked at a code plate in the engine bay last week and it said the weight of the car was 1800 odd kgs!!
    and thats probably dry! with 5 litres of washer fluid 5 for coolant 5 1/2 for engine oil and a full tank of fuel it must be getting on for two tons !!!
    surely the only other coupe with that kind of bulk is the jag xjs !!

    in comparisson my old 200sx's only wheighed 1300kgs so big power in those meant good 0-60,

    thats the one thing im sad about with the volvo, big bhp does'nt suit front wheel drive too well!
    that said i cant really fault the car, along with my accord type R its probably the best car ive had yet and its my 9th !!
