Wouldn't have a clue hahaha. How do I tell? Its a 96 model....
Ahh yeah , 93/94 models , you can replace the ball joint on em unlike the later steel ones. Heaps cheaper.
Haha well in that case don't worry about em. Pretty sure the ball joints will be screwed with my front drive wheels pointing on a 20 degree camber :-S
Rear springs any good? How ma.NY Ks on em , does it sit down a bit?
I think they're fairly okay, car sits straight, 155xxx on it. Previous owner seems to have enjoyed this car and replaced/fixed everything so they may not even be original.
Owmuchare they then?
PM me.






Sorry for the photo spam but heres the car as it sits now. Possibly taken so far are the rear springs and maybe the dashboard/airbag. Everything else though is there. Starts, runs, and drives. Has logbooks and service history so it has been looked after just had no oil in it haha. Interior seats are no good and neither are most of the door cards :/

Oh and admin, feel free to relocate this thread to the for sale section or somewhere more appropriate if you please :)
Coolant bottle , battery , pcv all worth keeping if any good. Cams as well as throttle body and intake Mani to put on turbo motors. Tyres?
ABS module? Door check straps at front . What's the carpet like? May want that.
Id like to keep it running, makes it easier to move, so the cams/tb/inlet mani will stay. Coolant bottle can come. battery was good but has gone flat so many times that I doubt its worth saving. Switched the tyres with the V70s so they are bald. Same with the ABS comp, its a goner from the V70. Ah yes, door check straps are good as is the carpet!
Then again if I get enough people wanting parts from the motor Ill just rip it apart. Im considering grabbing the starter anyway for the V70 which may or may not be on its last legs.
A/C compressor. Brake pump and reservoir. Front struts to make your own coilovers!
Ah yes I should remove the A/C, it was fixed as well. Brakes are a maybe. Front struts are cooked lmao
Yep , I kept my 850 ones , have the threaded tube to do it , need springs and dampers. Don't want low , want more compliance to stop the crashing and bashing 850/x70 do , bloody annoying! Don't know how IR what but will ask Ash to guide me , one day....
Both the shockers are shot I know that much. I would be very surprised if they are still even straight. The wheels pointing on bad angles can't have been good for them haha.

Car is gone guys, only the instrument cluster, stereo and dash top remain. Feel free to close thread, thanks!
Coolant bottle etc?
Rear springs??
Still on the car haha. You never confirmed if you were going to take them so I didn't take them off. No space to keep stuff sitting around. The dash top is in the back of my V70 until @tmovlovs‌ takes it and if he doesn't off to the tip it goes.
That's a B5252S 10 valve (no MAF). Check the number on the block near exhaust port 1 (you can shoot it with a phone camera) When new it was 106KW of pure driving pleasure.
