Vehicle description
Modified 1997 Volvo 850 GLT Wagon that has been transformed into a unique "R" inspired car:
(I picked this car because it was a good chassis to start with and has a lower insurance cost.)
During my 8 years of ownership, I have put 44,000 (accident free) miles on the car.
Engine: Rebuilt Cylinder Head, Naturally Aspirated Intake Manifold, Larger R Exhaust Manifold, Rebuilt Custom 16T Turbo with Billet Compressor wheel, Water Methanol injection, Timing Belt & Water Pump, Higher Flow T5 White Fuel Injectors, ECU Tune (from ARD) Motronic 4.4, Custom Exhaust (Flow master) with dual Exhaust tips, New Factory Radiator, Aluminum Intercooler, 5 Speed Manual (M56 from 1998 S70 T5, which has the upgraded Dual Mass Flywheel for smoother operation), new clutch & rebuilt Shifter (new bushings), IPD Turbo Control Valve & Boost Spring (15lbs), full tune up (cap & rotor, wires, spark plugs, oil & filter, K&N Air Filter) Silicon Vacuum & Coolent hoses, replaced PCV System.
Chassis: "R" Seats & carpet, Volvo C70 Convertible subframe with all factory bracing, additional Racing Dynamics Chassis braces, Factory Strut Brace, IPD Sway Bars & End Links, Factory 17" V70R Alloy wheels (includes spare alloy) which have been Plasti Dip Coated, Larger 302mm Cross Drilled Brake Rotors(front), and new rear rotors & pads, Stainless brake hoses, Rebuilt Rack & Pinion, Tie Rods, Control Arms, Xenon Headlights (Moromoto), "E" code headlight lenses (European) IPD Boast Gauge, Replaced Heater Core, Motor Mounts, Rebuilt CV Axles, Dyna Matted Sound Deadening, IPD Eggcrate grill, Factory Volvo Alarm works with Remote Fob, has a Volvo XC70 Rear Bumper to allow duel exhaust tips (used factory exhaust tips)
Updated with V70 Color Coded exterior Door Handles and Tailgate trim & LED Brake light, new larger 225/45/17 Pirelli Sport Tiles (original size 205/45/17), includes Weather Tech floormat & cargo liner, brand new Volvo Battery.
Includes extra parts too: Interior Plastic trim parts, dash pad w/h passenger airbag, 15G Turbo (minimal shaft play) 1998 S70 T5 Manual ECU (stock tune) and box of miscellaneous fasteners.
Things not working:
Tailgate water sprayer but tailgate wiper works, no Cruise control and the Air conditioning Lights blink when initially started but A/C blows cold.
This wagon drives & rides very smoothly and is pretty quick (much faster than stock), very clean inside & out and looks very sharp. Car was just detailed inside & out and has been Ceramic Coasted (Armor Shield)
JUST PASSED CALIFORNIA SMOG TEST (2/18/22).
I am also running a local Ad to sell this car, and I reserve the right to end this auction early if no bids are submitted.
Let me know if you have any questions, there are many many upgrades to this 850 Turbo Manual Wagon.
