VolvoTuned's 2000 Volvo S40


If you don't like my car, then rate it accordingly, but please, don't screw around with my ratings!!!Here is my mostly stock 2000 Volvo S40 ASR. It's a nice ride but it needs a lot of work. It's loaded with leather, sunroof, power package, etc. One complaint...where the heck you gonna get REASONABLY priced performance parts for this thing??? Current work is an underbody neon kit and interior recessed neons (blue Eurolites). This summer it's going to be all about the 17" Konigs wrapped in Continental Conti Extremes slung on Eibach ProKits. GreenStuff brakes, stock Volvo fog lights (where do you get those???) and KN intake to finish the toys. To my fellow mechanics: Tim (89 Mustang 5.0 LX), Bob (62 Studebaker Lark VIII), and Dad (04 Volvo S60). My car might be a Volvo but my heart is with a 69 Black and Yellow Mustang Boss 302 :) Special thanks to Tim for spending the whole night in the rain and cold doing most of the work for the underbody install. Pics are coming soon, but the hours were worth it...it looks great! Just a quick warning to all who want to do neons on your Volvo...plan first because installation and wiring can take several hours.

the best thing about your Volvo is that it is lightweight and you have the same motor as an s-60, thus turbo or chip upgrades along with intake and exhaust work can make it sleep on almost any import. wanna do someting? get a s-60-r motor and an adaptor plate and put it on a s-60 2.4t fwd tranny and eat mustangs for around 6k.

Hey man, thanks for getting back on me with the tips. I bought a switch and am almost done wiring it up for my neons. I feel pretty comfortable now with running wires from the battery to pretty much anywhere in the interior. My other question is, how much drain do the neons put on your battery? With my amp I'm worried it might be too much. Hit me back

You could probably get the panels from Volvo, but I reckon it would be much cheaper to get a panel beater to paint them. However, when u do this go see a Volvo specialist. I learnt the hard way by not seeing one!

Nice, I really like the neons. I'd love to know where you got them, what was involved, etc. I'm looking at getting green underbody neons for my S40.
