safe as houses mate

Le mans is the only one that seems to get taken down because duke motorsport has the rights to it and they are cocks
Not quite on the level of bernie cockery but still cocks
-
In case anyone missed it and wants to watch this channel uploads all the races in decent quality

Also the only races that ever seem to get taken down is le mans because wec is less of a cock about copyright than f1, motogp etc

WEC is my jam, love it, try to watch the full 24 hours of le mans etc each year. usually have main race stream on TV muted, Radio le mans commentary playing, couple of other in car live streams on other tv and laptop, and then live timing etc on an ipad, only way to watch it tbh,
Actually going to be in europe while le mans is on this year and hoping to get our itinerary to work so that I can be at the track for the race but not sure how likely that will be.
Maybe we need a motorsport subforum and can have an individual thread for each type of racing, would be keen for at least a WRC thread and maybe V8 bogancars as well

I have a media center PC running xbmc that I have set up sportsdevil on, can pick from different streams. Usually watch the UK sky streams or BBC.
Try to watch them live if not then I also have my PC set up to download the qualifying and race torrents and it adds those to the media center for me to watch later.
Have the last few years of races archived and the qualifying from most of them as well.
Found a sweet torrent that is all races from 1970 ish to mid 2000s. slowly chugging away but is over a TB and very few seeders

So sweet to see the cars throwing sparks again

Safari windows for the front would be lush

Oooh, I like the look of the palings instead of baseboards, might need to steal that idea as we have shitty broken baseboards as well

That's why you take the door card off and fill the door up with other stuff you want, put door card back on and then pay the complete door price
I mean, that's theft, don't do that

Hooowwwww do you do that when everyone has a max discount limit of 50L?
Friend at petrol station who would authorise it. Although it did stop working a month or two ago
-
They need to do another screw up where you can buy whole trays of red bull for free again.
(A while ago they had smartfuel discounts on cans of redbull and also a special where you could buy 2x redbull for cheap at the same time. could buy a whole tray of redbull and get enough fuel discount that the red bull worked out to be free)
I do the $40 accumulate each time then redeem on 2x cars at once when possible. makes me feel like a boss getting 50cpl discount on 140L of fuel

Never seen a bad stigma towards crossbreed engine conversions here

Random question but is that a crack between EXPORT and OR?

yeah man, same block/engine family as the turbo 240, 740, some 940, factory exhaust manifolds will fit etc but put the turbo in a yuck place. need to drill oil drain etc. rods are weaker than the 2.3 engines AFAIK.
Easiest would be to get a whole 2.3 out of another car and swap it over. either run a megasquirt etc or get an LH2.4 out of a later car and wire that all in.
Check out http://www.volvo300mania.com/uk/forum/ they will have all the info you want, quite a common swap over there
Read all about it here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvo_B21_engine
Volvo stuck a hairdryer on the 360 GLT in the mid-80s, afaik the same bits as all their other 2-litre turbos.
This is wrong, GLT was never turbo, no factory turbo in the 360 series

Have been mucking around with this while drinking yesterday

My 1981 Volvo 245 will do 230 miles for around $90 worth of 95, its an auto with PS driving on hills and around town.
What engine? carb or injected?
My manual 2.1 carb gets about 300-320 miles from about the same amount of gas
-
Definitely try find an early 244 if possible
Round lights so much more lush
Also depending how complete of a car you find probably keen for some interior bits if you are going to chuck standard shit out

Rumours are either a production mistake or made for police cars/taxis

even has a 1 year warranty so it must be legit

Have always done F+P dishwashers, washing machines and dryers. either F+P or simpson stoves. But thats just because thats what I used to work around so sort of know how to fix on my own if needed. Used to buy broken ones and repair then flip them for extra cash.
Unsure about anything gas as never dealt with that stz.
Few times I have fiddled with delonghi stuff I liked how it was built/put together but parts were spendy
Bosche same boat, seemed nicely made but havent fiddled too much
Hated anything Classique I have ever worked on. Cheaply made and shit and parts were so expensive.

Screw extended warranties. Thats what consumer guarantees act is for.
Our washing machine crapped out 9 months after warranty. Just had to mention CGA and they paid for a bunch of repairs. we just had to pay $70 for the call out and then the repairs didn't work so they replaced with brand new machine.
Dishwasher got repaired for free a year and a half after warranty expired.
