yuppie scum death wagon. im baaaacckkk.

[DragginWagonII]

Whatsup stancers. I'm back on the attack with a new wagon. The TE died a brutal death, but round two should be more interesting.

Picked up a 98 Volvo v70 wagon, turbo awd. for the whopping price of...200 bucks! Lol. Was pretty beat when I took delivery but im slowly bringin it back to Deathsquad status.

A week after I got it:


Blown rear shocks, stock upfront. Gangsta lean FTL. added 960 front lip. R rear spoiler. Greddy muffler. And played with the wastegate. 8 psi as of here.

Week later:

Went to a friends place, he had some stock mk5 gti springs laying around, turns out they fit perfect and lowered the front 3 inches! Lol. New rear shocks and mounts, blacked out grille, plate relocated.

Added upper strut bar, engine was filthy. So I cleaned it up.
Before:

After:


Next I addressed the fact that I couldn't see at night. And I fucking haaaate that.
12000k HIDs were the answer.

Seeing problem solved.
Then I got a trade offer on some wheels, gave up my xxr 522s from the yota for these honkers. 17x8.5, et 35.


Needs moar low. Maybe after winter. Ugh.
the headlights looked...boring. so I DIYed them up:
From this:

To theeeesssee:

and as of now:

Much much more to come. Broke status right now, but itll get there soon.

Peace!

[DragginWagonII]

Trimmed my shifter/ebrake/boots in leather and suede.

$200 bones? Awesome.

[D&W]

hell yea looks so diff after those lights good one

[DragginWagonII]

Decided to black out the corners..still unsure if I like it or not..blah.

[anto125]

man i was in search too of a t5-r
here in italy you can find'em for something like 1000 euros..
really dig yours except for the black corners..
definetly needs a set of btcc style bbs or oz
18", and trapped in the chassis, al the way down

[autoE34]

blacked out corners look awesome on your car. Looks very aggressive from the front. paint correction, moar low, sum wheelz and yer golden

[laBeef]

Looking good. But keep the stock wheels on, they look cleaner, and flow with the car.

[MommysLittleMonster]

I want to punch you in your face for thinking 12,000k HID's help you see better.


But, overall, I dig the car. I also agree with the above- stock wheels look much, much better.

otherwise it's pretty sweet.

[DragginWagonII]

Well, 12k makes things look like blacklight. Whatever. I like purple fuckoff. Lol.
And stock wheels aren't bad, but I don't care much for them. The red 17s aren't gonna be red by the time they make it on the car.

Going to get my 15g turbo, R ecu and black interior tomorrow. I'll update with pics.
