    ? I've done several things to my maxima and everything has been pretty straightforward. The bay isn't bad at all. But it's def not a honda.....

    Our max can do a lot more than 220whp on motor. You need to do research, not me.

    I didn't know the volvo came turbo so it might be easier to make more power, but it weighs 3700 lbs...awd would be nice though...

    But making power is irrelevent because you said yourself you just wanted to tint the windows then ride out...

    I'll put it like this. You get your volvo. Then you come race my maxima, and see who wins...maxima's can only make 220hp.

    Double postin nagger. Sammich I almost bought one awhile back. I used to sell volvo's and I can tell you that these are very reliable. In the few months that I was there they werent in for anything more then regular maintenance. the only thing handling wise about these things is that even though they are AWD they have the handling characteristics of a fwd car so dont expect a lot of tailout melarky. They do make decent power but like most euro cars the aftermarket is a little bit expensive but not nearly as bad as most of the other euro cars.

    If you have any questions feel free to PM/Call.

    ^Red GT is right the AWD is front biased and sends power to rear when needed.

    THE TURNING RADIUS IS FUCKING HORRIBLE I WILL WORN YOU NOW.

    All you need to do to the S60R is sways, ecu, turbo back and front mount and you have a quick every day hauler.

    Maintenance wise it is fine I'm talking about modding. Coilovers, B16A swap, Stage 2 clutch, lightweight flywheel, JDM one piece head lights... it goes on and on.
