Just bought my 3rd Volvo (2-2004 S60 Turbos, and now a 2000 S40). I love Volvos. Maybe because they can go from total "grandma's grocery getters", to a really cool looking GT car for just a couple thousand $. I'm really impressed by this 242. Any chance that there is a big pic (wallpaper) of this car online anywhere?
+Blank Stairs Couldn't agree more. I have two 855 T5's. One is only with a bigger turbo and has about 260hp. The other one has fully built motor, even bigger turbo, 3" exhaust from turbo, bigger injectors, new fuel pump, tune and so on.. It has 320hp measured on dyno.
m90 gearboxes are on the 900 t5 or t6 engines are transversal engines on the 850 the 900 series have longitudinal engines. the gearboxes are not the same. i've one m90 but for the 6 cylinders diesel from a 900 wich is longitudinal too.
Swedish horse power better than german's. I envy your possiblities to tune up your cars. Here in Finland it is impossible to make cars like these. This is shit country all the way.
im Swedish and have looked up the Swedish laws allot u can have 15kw per 100kg at max if registers as "amateur built car" and if its registered as anything other then its 20% hp gain and 10% nm gain from what the chassis had at most which in 240 is the turbo but u need to upgrade to the turbo brakes then
Nice! My brother has a 1990 240 wagon and I'm thinking about turning it into a sleeper. It won't be a drift car or the fastest car on the road because I plan to put a killer stereo system in it too lol.
Mitä tästä taas opimme: Muuta Ruotsiin elä tyytyväisenä autoharrastajana. Elä Suomessa ja tylsisty autoharrastajana. Ruottis tekniikka kuin tekniikka kilpiin menee eikä mussuteta turhista :-).
Tätä juuri olen itsekkin miettinyt. Ja uskaltaisin väittää että Ruotsissa ei tapahdu yhtäkään liikennekuolemaa enempää kuin suomessa rakennetuista ajoneuvoista johtuen.
Jani Saloniemi Näin on varmasti. Itsellä on tuo 940 B230FK aina katsastukseen vaihda: Vakio cooleri, ahtoputket vesivärillä musta ettei vaan liikaa kiillä. Asenna katysaattori :-). Ahtomittariin musta teippilätkä päälle ei nävy ahdot. Tuskin ikinä muuttuu tässä maassa autoharrastajan '''virittäjän'' rakentelu ystävällisemmäksi asiat/lait. Noooohh...
Hello from Denmark, indeed very nice custom car you have there! Wierd question, but do you know someone who might have a rebuilt b5234t3 5cylinder 240hp engine for sale?
that wasnt my question was it? also, it would be cheaper to cram a T6 under the hood than to build a motor. the T6 is also an easier swap than the T5, but its heavier. im really just curious as to what setup car has.
How much money id invest if I wanted 5cylinder motor and like 400horsepower, price estimated what the parts only would cost me usd or euros ? Car is volvo 760 -86
who did the swap. and what transmission did he put in there? the 240 - T5 swap is supposed to be a major pain in the ass. but my wagon needs MOAR JOOSE!
i'm not well versed in 244 d's tho so i'd ask around in turbo bricks and find out what your looking at for a swap as it may be more to swap than just finding a normal gas one for say 500$ more
244=4 door sedan, it's what i got but the 242 (2door) is better for drifting and racing. Do research, check out turbo bricks forums, ipdusa [dot] com, v-performance, get an idea of whats out there and what you want to do with it. these things last forever if you know what your doing and most maintenance is fairly easy. personally i'm rebuilding my engine as N/A 280hp, modifying suspension but keeping stock height for offroad and a t5z swap, turboing eventually in future.
Yes they are :-) but the 242 was also made with that new type front end, but they are more rare these days it seems. Anyways, i like them both, and at least I think the new front is prettier on this car. The old front isn't pretty, just bad ass :-) just my opinion though...
haavard1989 I guess I was just confused by the fact that you coulda just used a whole 86+ car instead, but I guess if you wanted a coupé that bad then... sure! haha
But why wouldn't he strap himself up for this type of driving..? If something goes wrong, and the car flips, he would be out that window in the first roll-over, and at these speeds it's not hard to think what will happen then!! Stay safe people, strap yourselves up, and stay off public roads...
Volvo 240 "T5" borde den heta.. 540 hk är fan ingen T5.. visst en Volvo 5a med turbo är det ju men vad hade den kraftigaste t5an från Volvo? 250 eller nått på dom sista modellerna.. de där e ju de dubbla
hahahahahhahahahahahah jag skrattar så jag pissar ner mig. Det är ju fan en T5 som är trimmad till 540hk. Ingen original volvo maskin ligger i de hästarna...
MalminOG well it has 540 HP so i guess it is very fast. But that is not the point here. We swedes like to drift and it is even more fun to drift in a car with allot of house powers. This is not a drag race video or a video to show how fast it is :) :) :)
MalminOG That depends on what you like. Also i think he drives fast in that car all the time. Just not in this video. And it is Cooler to drift like that. I mean everyone can go fast in a straight linne but not everyone can drift :) ;)
Now that's a proper sound. 5cylinder just wonderful. Very nice stylish and pretty good driving
Good looking volvo mate, i've got a zero-rust-edition 242 here in Australia ;) Soon will be getting a turbocharged LS2 V8 :)
T5 that shit bruh
Barra that shit bro
Nah redblock turbo'd out of its fucking mind, just for fun
1:33 being careful around other "civilians". Respect
The street view is much more exciting to watch. I think I'm going to buy an old 245 to fix up. There's nothing like the old RWD Volvos.
One of the nices't Volvo's out there, fucking love it, the gold rims with the blue body... Heavenly beautiful! Sorry for my bad English!
I seriously love this 242, it's just so sick. One day I will have one too. But now it's still dreams
Dreams come true buddy
Yeah i wish. Still got to finish my Turbo Amazon. And then some day i wil have a 242. With a B230 16V turbo. Some day :P
SnabboNL did you get one?

I normally don't like Volvos... but that one was bad-ass!
this is just f***ing awesome!!!
Jaw dropping, beautiful ovlov.
So cool... Ist paint code 417?
Looks like my 850 T5..
Man I love this bricks!! Awesome car 👹
Good driving. Awesome car
That is absolutely legendary 👌🏽
Sounds amazing , looks amazing ... that's one amazing Volvo !
I fucking love these 100 and 200 series Volvos.
Daaaaaaaaaaaaayum boooooooooooooy! Never thought volvos could sound that nice..
there are turbo engines from factory on the 242
they are 4 cylinders.
m90 gearboxes are on the 900
t5 or t6 engines are transversal engines on the 850
the 900 series have longitudinal engines.
the gearboxes are not the same.
i've one m90 but for the 6 cylinders diesel from a 900 wich is longitudinal too.
Swedish horse power better than german's. I envy your possiblities to tune up your cars.
Here in Finland it is impossible to make cars like these.
This is shit country all the way.
Why?
kipponi loled at shit country
this car is not fully legal. it has to mutch power
ultimadriver
What do you know about Swedish laws?
How much is too much? Volvo can manage the 540 horsepowers.
im Swedish and have looked up the Swedish laws allot u can have 15kw per 100kg at max if registers as "amateur built car" and if its registered as anything other then its 20% hp gain and 10% nm gain from what the chassis had at most which in 240 is the turbo but u need to upgrade to the turbo brakes then

Didn't think that sounded like a red block. A B5234T in a RWD volvo? You have my admiration.
Mitä tästä taas opimme: Muuta Ruotsiin elä tyytyväisenä autoharrastajana.
Elä Suomessa ja tylsisty autoharrastajana.
Ruottis tekniikka kuin tekniikka kilpiin menee eikä mussuteta turhista :-).

Hello from Denmark, indeed very nice custom car you have there!
Wierd question, but do you know someone who might have a rebuilt b5234t3 5cylinder 240hp engine for sale?
what blue is that. its beautiful. i have fallen in love all over again
Volvo Laserblå=Volvo Laser blue
Color code 441
No Its not volvo laserblue. Its Ocean Race Blå
Color Code 458 or 706
sweet! :D Hvordan girkasse bruker du?
that wasnt my question was it? also, it would be cheaper to cram a T6 under the hood than to build a motor. the T6 is also an easier swap than the T5, but its heavier. im really just curious as to what setup car has.
hey do you have pics of the car and where can i see them? nice machine btw....
WOW! I Want it! Nice Vid and stellar driving!
super car
enriching - tests and opinions
How much money id invest if I wanted 5cylinder motor and like 400horsepower, price estimated what the parts only would cost me usd or euros ? Car is volvo 760 -86
That sound!!
who did the swap. and what transmission did he put in there? the 240 - T5 swap is supposed to be a major pain in the ass. but my wagon needs MOAR JOOSE!
i'm not well versed in 244 d's tho so i'd ask around in turbo bricks and find out what your looking at for a swap as it may be more to swap than just finding a normal gas one for say 500$ more
Sick man !
who did you go threw for the crate engine? that is awesome
vadå 1975 ? det är ju nya fronten på... det hoppas jag verkligen inte du monterat på en 75a
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
don't care for drifting but damn that is a beautiful 242, i would like to see what is under the hood
The city is his playground!
T5 is God.
amazing, Nice car Nice driver ;)
four bangin volvo red blocks will always sound good
+Professor Oak Um.. thats a T5 ( 5cyl )my friend :)
looks like i cant read or hear or see
what you mean t5 ? Its a 2.3 or later version 05+ 2.4 turbo of 850/s70/s60 in a rwd? Or just to get baits, curious what is the engine
+GuerreroBestEver b5234t. That's the Engine in it.
Viking88 G i also have a b5234t in my 95 850 .
+GuerreroBestEver
how hard is the swap?
blake smith factory engine.
+blake smith some of the 850's come standard with t5 or t5-r.
Min favoritt bli
Dont they come out with 2.4L 4 bangers? I'm guessing its got that in it, Just heavily modified.
Vårdslöst att köra så. Risken att föraren tappar kontrollen och utsätter sig själv och andra för fara är överhängande. Trevlig bil dock.
wie gechillt er da so lenkt ..., respekt
haha.. looks like a lot of fun! and BTW nice fucking Volvo!
which engine is it? is it still a redblock?
244=4 door sedan, it's what i got but the 242 (2door) is better for drifting and racing. Do research, check out turbo bricks forums, ipdusa [dot] com, v-performance, get an idea of whats out there and what you want to do with it. these things last forever if you know what your doing and most maintenance is fairly easy. personally i'm rebuilding my engine as N/A 280hp, modifying suspension but keeping stock height for offroad and a t5z swap, turboing eventually in future.
my only question is why does a 1975 242 have the 1986+ front end?
för att dom kan ^^
Because we love that front end
But the 75 front end is so gorgeous :(
Yes they are :-) but the 242 was also made with that new type front end, but they are more rare these days it seems. Anyways, i like them both, and at least I think the new front is prettier on this car. The old front isn't pretty, just bad ass :-) just my opinion though...
haavard1989 I guess I was just confused by the fact that you coulda just used a whole 86+ car instead, but I guess if you wanted a coupé that bad then... sure! haha
Brutal!!!
Hur mycket pengar är nerlagt på denna skönhet?
Är detta en epa?
+FoxyEdits Men oj arg
+FoxyEdits Awww har du lärt dig ett nytt ord va kul
+Lards Lars Oj vad rolig du var där va? Jo men precis det är en Epa han är 16 och tänkte köra den i 30.
+matsiish Nej inte riktigt.
Mycket arghet på min kommentar. Det verkar nästan som att folk ser ner på epa raggare. Dom är lika mycket människor som er, såreså!
Sjuk edu var finns du? Asså sån bil vill man ju ha som lek
Den va hysterisk
så jä..a grym volvo 242 love it
GREAT VIDEO
Varje byfånes våta dröm?
But why wouldn't he strap himself up for this type of driving..? If something goes wrong, and the car flips, he would be out that window in the first roll-over, and at these speeds it's not hard to think what will happen then!! Stay safe people, strap yourselves up, and stay off public roads...
Vad heter lacken på volvon ?!!
fy fan vad bra :) får lust själv att sätta i en t5:a :)
Crazy guys from Sweden!Any place in Sweden you can meat someone like him!No metter what time...5 pm or 3 am!
The playback speed is modified, look at the hands on the steering wheel and the physics of the suspension...
Agree
Ultimate bimmer bully though
Good, now get rid of the loud orange rims, wear your grandad's cap, add a ball-hitch, a roof-rack, and a caravan club sticker
Stock rear end??
what gearbox you use for the T5 RWD ?
+David Silva Garaget.com-link says (in swedish) there's a reinforced gearbox from a Toyota Supra
Ok, what is the year of the Supra?
+David Silva I don't know... It doesn't say, just "Reinforced gearbox from Toyota Supra"...
+David Silva it was a mk3 supra gear box so 5speed
vad är det för motor?
Volvo 240 "T5" borde den heta.. 540 hk är fan ingen T5.. visst en Volvo 5a med turbo är det ju men vad hade den kraftigaste t5an från Volvo? 250 eller nått på dom sista modellerna.. de där e ju de dubbla
Det är väl visst en T5:a? Han har ju uppenbarligen trimmat den så att det är 540hk. Men det väl fortfarande en T5:a
hahahahahhahahahahahah jag skrattar så jag pissar ner mig. Det är ju fan en T5 som är trimmad till 540hk. Ingen original volvo maskin ligger i de hästarna...
Viktor Kaevski fortfarande en t5:a i grund och botten ?
Klart det är Simon. Tyckte det lät så dumt när snubben säger att det inte är en T5 för att den har 540hk. Förstår nog inte att man kan trimma bilar...
right,my bad.
i'm on the diesel...
Tuning by Swedens :D This volvo has much power
Its a Volvo, not simply a car :P
Is this SWK's car?!? :O
Sccchhhhh... Don't tell them, i said you sold it... Hahaha... We better get that Supra out on the streets with the same driver soon!
01:10 nice blurr :D
Kan man gasa fullt då har man trimmat för lite .
Du är bra på att drifta
Jajamen. All kred till Johan som byggt bilen!
Very cool.
fan ilken nice bild!
Wtf varför kommer denna gamla videon upp i mitt flöde 😛
Dags att du skaffar 240 nu efter alla värstingar du haft senaste tiden 😜
HHaha det va tyvärr inte min. Men den är ju bra fet!
where is the epa raggar bullshit? i cant see any epa anywhere, can you?
Ok now we all have you seen playing with your toy, but how fast is it?
MalminOG well it has 540 HP so i guess it is very fast. But that is not the point here. We swedes like to drift and it is even more fun to drift in a car with allot of house powers. This is not a drag race video or a video to show how fast it is :) :) :)
Such a waste.
MalminOG That depends on what you like. Also i think he drives fast in that car all the time. Just not in this video. And it is Cooler to drift like that. I mean everyone can go fast in a straight linne but not everyone can drift :) ;)
Oh yeah, its "cool". Like I said, such a waste.
How is having fun with a car that you built for having fun a waste? I don't get it.
så jaa!
damn , it's too fuckin good Volvo !
Kolbäck?
Lovely
Cool bil men jävlit töntigt å köra utan bälte vad man kan se
+EL PARTY tror han har 4 eller 6 punktsbälte.
+isac Rosén 2:30 ser man bältet
+Alfred Lind de är där bak ja men alla Volvo 240,740,940 har bälten
Och meningen med din kommentar var? Du borde läsa om allt för den där kommentaren var helt onödig :)
+Alfred Lind nej men han sa ju att han inte körde me bälte ju jag sa att bara att det fanns till 240,740,940
WROOOM WROOOM!
cool car
Kolbäck va? :)
Det her er bilen Volvo skulle gjort før! 252 :D
Jeg har 265, nå mangler jeg bare 244 og 242 :)
540 horse kover?
like a boss
NICE 242 ;-)
Bamse approved
I like it
fett nice!
so nice :-O
I LOVE
