*!Build of the year candidate!* Strange PNW Build: E30+Volvo

Nope, but Im guessing you (and the rest of us ) will find out soon :p

Well, I’ve got a 215mm recess in the Volvo dual mass flywheel. I have three options, A) buy a larger E30 disk made for dual mass and have it trimmed (losing some friction material $120), B) buy an E21 sprung center 215mm disk and drop it in (sub $100) or C) pay to have an unsprung BMW center put in a Volvo disk by one of the various performance clutch places (+/- $200 for stock sized organic friction disk). I know $80-$100 doesn’t seem like a ton, but I’m on an uber tight budget. I do pretty much everything out of scraps or used parts.

Any idea what would happen if you pair a sprung center clutch disk with a dual mass flywheel?

So very amazing!

My hope is that someone sees something that gives them an idea for how to do their build even if it isn’t the same. I had resigned myself to shelling out a bunch of time and money to build a full custom header until I saw someone else build a J pipe (up pipe) to relocate their turbo and I was like, “duhhhhh”, so now I’m taking that route. Sometimes I worry that my posts are too granular, but I figure people can just skip over if they want.

Disagree, this is one of my favorite threads ever due to the pace at which you work and the detail you put in your write ups!

I wish I could sleep at 9pm
