Is this of any use?

Potentially a good place to start...

Thinking the same as you! Watching it closely mate, its auto but never mind. Still ain't sold mine yet tho... Need to for money for the btcc rep... If not i'll mod mine minus the graphics and stripped interior...

not jumping on the band wagon here but i'm in the process of ordering the graphics to do an estate replica but in turbo red instead of white as think it will look different an i'm also doing it properly and starting with a 2.0 20v N/A that they used when racing and i'm also hoping to find somewhere that will do a throttle body kit for this engine so it will sound similar too

Nice to hear that others are gonna do replicas, i understand you using a 2.0 NA mario buti'm gonna use a T5 purely for the tuning potential... And i'm dead set on a white car for my base... But in all honesty its not looking likely my project will even get started...

not good would be nice to be at a show and have a few replica's lined up and yeah the tuning is alot easier on a turbo lump i'm finding it a very hard task indeed to find the upgrades i want lol kind of starting to think of an engine swap but i will only do that as a last resort lol well if you do get your project off the grround make sure you keep it posted

Would be great to get a few replicas together, i know what your saying about finding parts.. Really struggling with the front and rear spoilers.. If my T5-R don't sell i will still attempt to do a rep but it will take a lot longer... Approx over a year... As apposed to approx 1 month if the R sells....

mario850 · Mar 11th, 2009, 08:34

yeah i'm looking at about a year too because i wont be pulling the interior out until i can afford to run a second volvo as i need the seats and tow bar for family holidays with the caravan lol will look good though a BTCC rep towing a caravan lol
