    I bought another Mark VIII...does this sound like IMRCs?

    Well after two years with my WRX, I decided to buy a Mark VIII project car so I'd stop modding my WRX. I discovered that while on the highway when I floor it it is basically limited to 4200RPM or so. I am thinking the IMRC arent opening. Does this sound right? It drives and shifts fine but when...

    Considering swapping a 93-95 Mark VIII drivetrain into a Volvo 240DL

    Lets discuss buying a Mark VIII for a weeknd racer project

    I know I cant be the only one who thought of this. Find a Mark VIII that maybe has a problem or two, perhaps a 93 in need of a trans rebuild or some airbags. Strip all the weight out of it that you possibly can and make it a cheap weekend racer to take to circle tracks, drag strip and auto x...

    **** did I blow a headgasket? Overheating fun in this thread.

    Yesterday I was stuck in traffic idling stop light to stop light. It is 97* outside. My A/C needs to be recharged. The car overheated. I opened the top and of course it boiled over big time . (I know I wasn't supposed to, I don't know why I did.) Luckily I pulled over in a kmart parking lot so I...

    Shortening M8 axles (Spline/main shaft diameter question)

    Someone on another board I am on is putting an M8 rear into their Volvo, however the axles are to long. Does anyone know if the spline diameters are smaller than the "main" shaft diameters so they can be shortened? Thanks!
