Aloha,

My name is Keoni, first time I heard of this site and because I saw a banner on a YouTube video; I’ll browse the site for more info.

I’ve been a car guy for many years so I’m not new to the game but I have much to learn! I am a 90% DIY’er including motor work, suspension, etc. Recently I just upgraded front/rear Evolve sways on my 2004 Volvo S60R (you’ll hear me reference it as an SR from time to time as what the ‘locals’ do, similar how we now call NSRT4, CSRT4, etc instead of Neon SRT4 and so on).

First car was a 65 Mustang with 289 swap, 89 Trans Am, 78 mustang king cobra 351, 2000 Saleen S281 SC Conv, 2000 F150 lifted SC’d etc, Two 2003 Hyundai Tiburons (they are twins, same wide body, both molded, same wheels, paint, grafix, Wilwood brake kits, etc except 1 is on wireless remote air ride system and other is twin turbo’d… the airride one is now dead as of Sept 2007) and sold last month my 1999 Custom Harley Road King but I still have the TT Tiburon (though no running… but will be soon) and my modified 2004 Volvo SR (lots of mods).

Here are pictures of my current two rides:

I live in Duquesne Heights, next to TriMont, and I mostly go to Casinos and Bridgeville Pool Hall called Golden Cue.

Take care,
Keoni.

I fixed your pics :tup:

Thank you sir. I was wondering why my post took forever to post, do you approve of the first thread prior to posting?

Josh,
What have you done with your ZX?

Yeah sorry about that. Our anti-spam software has a mind of it’s own sometimes, lol.

I have a full list of mods somewhere, but pretty much larger turbos and all the supporting stuff to go along with it.

Another member I know had on S60R and loved it :tup:

Built new exhaust yesterday… might have to tear it back down and double check welds, i think I hear hissing on high pressure… or might be a gasket leak but I think its at the turbo/DP gasket/flange. Went 3" all the way, mendrel bends, solid welds, etc to dual exit.

Looks like you’re copying code from photobucket and trying to past it here… and that won’t work!

What you need to do is get the URL of the image which is on the 2nd line of the code you posted;

http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w63/keoni212/2004%20S60R/IMAG0038.jpg

Then put [IMG] at one end then [ /IMG] at the other end but replace the space I put in between the [ and the /

any soy sauce to go with that rice?

Thanks again; I would have done it by trial an error but every time I post I can’t see it, like it goes through your spam or sent for approval before its in the threads so I could not figure out which would work correctly - as forum to forum it varies a little.

Yeah, Spam too. :slight_smile:

You can click “go advanced” next to the quick reply button to preview your post, but now that you have a few counted posts the system should stop thinking you’re trying to sell us Viagra :slight_smile:

Ahh, thanks, I’ll browse the FAQ’s and such.

Never seen the Volvo around, but I think I’ve seen the Tiburon. I live on the other side of Mt. Washington off Boggs Ave.
