You should seal up the rust holes, because your volvo is so flat from the rear it creates a vacuum behind it which circulate the exhaust gasses back into the car...
I did with some spray foam 😉
you might want to use some mastic (hvac duct stuff) as spray foam at thin thicknesses can still be vapour and air permeable.
@@_Gingium_ My guy, you're a fabricator with access to a laser cutter. Cut some plates to fit in the holes, weld them in and throw some primer on. CO poisoning isn't something that goes away, it accumulates, you're risking your life for no reason.
At those speeds and rate of acceleration I don't there's enough exposure time to matter! hahaaa... and the driver's window is open often to pass thru the speeding tickets so there's plenty of incoming fresh air.
interesting way to put weight over the rear tires for traction.
😆
@@_Gingium_ need someone in there for the drag strip
Making the fake exhaust rusty would be a great idea. It's such a fun idea.
Sand it, spray it with vinegar and rub salt into it, nearly instant rust
I would try to make it more air tight to help with the exhaust fumes. Helps with burnouts as well, double win
Dude this thing is soo sick!!!!! Are you gonna tub the rear for wider tires? Also shorten the ford 8.8? I'm doing the exact thing with my volvo 240 with a 6.0 t56 and shorten ford 8.8 but mine is NA not turbo. I haven't seen anyone tub this car nicely and keep the rear seats. Maybe you can be a first. I do know that the inner wheel tub and the fenders do have a gap that you can weld a flat sheet of metal to make a wide tire fit. You are such an inspiration to me. Thanks for the vids😆👍
Probably going to shorten the 8.8 a bit and get wider tires. Wont tub it though. I think I can fit a 26x11 slick in these wheel wells pretty easily!
I love to see how concerned you are about safety and fire. Everyone makes mistakes, but the smart ones learn from them
Love the 3rd row seat, just avoid front end collisions as it will snap that person's back
Thought the same, he might want to consider building a headrest for safety purposes.
I second this, just thinking about what the whiplash could be in case something goes wrong in that seat is terrifying. A solid headrest would be super helpful
And avoid getting rear ended cause they’ll get squished.
To make it rusty, sand it a bit and use a mix of hydrogen peroxide. vinegar and salt to rust the metal quickly (don't need all 3 if you don't have em)
You could totally make some viral videos across all platforms with that seat in the back! Keep up the great work Gingium, your videos make my week!
The third row seat is made for small children, not for adults. I myself have ridden in one like that. greetings from Sweden
My mom used to have one of these in the back of her '81 manual turbo wagon, I used to love to ride in the back! I wish my parents still had that wagon, they owned it from the mid 80s to the early 90s.
Just to let you know the harness bar should really be at the same height as the shoulders of the person in the seat. It could hurt someone as is because the harnesses will pull down on them in a collision
this is the only channel i watch religiously as soon as a new video is uploaded
amazing vid as always, also yooo I think that 3rd row could be epic for roller shots! the cameraman is facing the right way, just open or take off the trunk and u got roller shots for days!
My dad had an upgraded v70r 7 seater loved sitting in the back.was so fun
To get the exhaust smell out of the cabin, you need the exhaust exiting completely out from under the body and pointing away from the body. Dumping down to the floor under the rear bumper will result in an "upside down mushroom cloud" under the car, and the transmission tunnel isn't airtight. Been there done that lol. Hard to achieve on a sleeper though, because the exhaust exit must be outside of the body to work. Can you exit to the side near the rear wheels? A black tip there should hopefully be less visible.
Great editing and what a cliffhanger!
I'd still put the shift light down near the column. In the early 00s there was a dude Skidman who built Cressidas with 2JZ swap using a Chaser subframe. This was back when that was new knowledge from Japan and 1000hp was the professional limit of the motors, it was revolutionary. Anyway, he had stock wheels and straw grandpa hat and tissue box on the back parcel shelf, full grandpa spec. The only visible change was a tiny tacho and shift light down near his knee. Perfect 👌
Put your heaviest friend in the back for more traction, and it's a chassis brace!
Used to watch your vids about the subi glad I found your channel again
That reverse back seat should be obligatory mounted in all the drift wagon cars
Might need a bit more bolstering for drifting lol
11:20 gotta be the best transition I've seen in a long while
The seat is great, but definitely add a removable headrest for it
As currently, the whiplash would be very bad in the event of a front end collision, which as you know, can happen.
Safety first, even with sketchy rear seats
Bring this thing to Midwest drags!
I had a dump under my 240 and the drone was unbearable, but it was in front of the axle. Exhaust didn't enter the car though, so its probably the holes. If you want to see something funny. Look at the rollover rear crumple zone for a 240 wagon, then decide if you want to sit in the third row. The car basically turns into the sedan. At least in some of the ones I've seen.
so cool to see the progress on the volvo. im like 20 mins from bradenton, when you and john come down id love to be able to take a rip in it!
scam someone else LOL
For the idle exhaust issue, could you put some sort of spring flap on the big exhaust so when it’s not pushing a ton of gas out, it all would get passively pushed through the “factory” pipe and behind the car?
Then when you give it the beans, the exhaust would build enough pressure to push the flap open, kind of like the stacks on some trucks and heavy equipment, but with mild spring pressure instead of a weight. Or maybe a weight could work if it was enginerd right…
Nothing to prevent whip lash so I wouldve gone for comfort & fold since even with a harnes you’ll get whiplash 😂
I would recommend to swap that fuse panel out with a modern blade fuse set up. Its definitely more reliable and more efficient than the ceramic euro style. I got mine from Wagonmeister. Check it out!
If you get in any head on collision, the guy in that 3rd row seats spinal cord is toast. I'd definitely put a head rest there, maybe collapsible or foldable so you still have rearview when no one is in the third row
I grew up riding backwards in our family's 240. This is sick
There are most likely cabin vents somewhere at the rear that are letting in the fumes. They are for relieving pressure when you close a door. And the huge rust holes will def do it as well :)
Gingium: It has some rust holes that we'll probable fill with silicone.
Also Gingium: *drills holes for a 3rd row seat.
LOL. /s Loving the videos. It always amazes me how much progress you make in a single video, and how much you have learned over the years.
yoo he is banging the crap out of those gears at 7:36 you can hear it bang
literally banging gears lol
The 3rd row seat could also be used to film cars or take pictures
you need a sturdy slide up headrest for the jump seat so that person sitting in it wont get whiplash when you have to do an emergency stop
I would be immediately sick lol. I have gotten much better. Haven't been sick in a car, or boat in ages. The rear seat option may be my limit lol.
If you crash going forward with that, even just a small fender bender, that is going to be a massive neck injury.
You need some sort of headrest. Either fold-out or detachable or something.
Having problems with exhaust in the back of the car so let's put an extra seat back thare. Lol
Third row seats in old Volvos are only rated for people under the age of 14 or less than 30 kilograms. Something like that. It might even be on a sticker on the seat or in the back of the car it campe from.
I like the camera work in this video
@gingium you need to take the Volvo on sick week or race week.
Also this will be perfect to take rollers from
I feel like your boot isn't properly shut down, it has wide gaps which is why all the exhaust fumes are seeping in. Ever since my car was in a crash, it had the same problem which is, at idle i could smell the exhaust. It was so bad i used to come home smelling like exhaust fumes lmfaoo. I used insulation tape and stuck it on where the whole boot lid sits and the fumes have stopped coming in. Hopefully it will help you out as well
For you to keep the exhaust out of the car it needs to come out from underneath the car
so it looks like my 6'4" gargantuan ass is not gonna fit in there. big sad. that DJI MIC is freaking awesome!
Not comfortably or safely but you'll fit! lol. And glad you like!
Love videos very much 😂💪👍🔥❤️
What i highly suggest is to put a bucket seat or 2 back there that bench isn't going to be strong enough to hold an adult
As a 240 owner (x7) I really appreciate your videos. Being stuck at 109 Hp is no fun! hah.. How do you fund all the work, parts and tools?
Damn I wish my 86’ had that under dash carpet, Kurt probably said something about how bad the wiring was in it lol
Another way to mark a pipe is use a 20 dollar bill. They are worthless these days anyways
Worthless? You could buy 2 dozen eggs with that! 😆😆😐
@@johnnybodangus2529
Or 1 pack of cigarettes and one 2 litter soda , or 4 gallons of gas ... lol 🤣
All us bills are the same size. So any bill will do
I can gets lots of McDonald’s to that
I can fill the tank on my bike twice with $20
Hey Gingium dont forget the b2200 😢
That’s a badass bathroom lmfao
"Starts with a V and ends in olvo" 😂
12:45 my neck hurts even if i imagine a little bit of front hit when parking 😀
This girl needs to attend a drag week event
My Volvo's hatch doesn't open, just make sure the mechanism is solid, there are plastic pieces that can break and should the worst happen that sounds like a nightmare.
My first car was a ‘98 Volvo v70 and all my friends would fight over the rear facing seats 😂
Haha I wonder what people are thinking when they see this one launches!
I just replaced the exhaust on my volvo 240, I have a spare stock tail pipe, rusty and everything if you want it.
Bro why you just dont try to get new turbo versions, it really seems like your turbo is lagging ... awesome project, been watching you from day 0, keep going with the good work
Definitely gotta try using the 3rd row as a camera man's seat to get rollers
That would also probably require taking off the hatch 💀 still be sick though, since it's so fast it'd be able to actually keep up as opposed to a truck or something
Do like all your content but the 240 is the best!👌
which welder do you use ? i am trying to find a good welder for my home.
You should find an old over and start powder coating small things
Maybe repair trunk, could help a bit as well
when do we get to see this on hoonigans This VS That?
Head rest for third row.. looking sketch without it lol
I thought you were going on Sick Week
Saludos
Please get a headrest for that seat, any crash above 15mph is going to result in whiplash
Your going to want a 5 point in that with the exception in the Volvo submerging is a issue
Let us all rally and get Caleb to the Freedom Factory for some Cleetus/Gingium excellence 🙌🏻🙌🏻🤌🏼🤌🏼
Watching this instead of the Super Bowl
Very nice how much 😀
Add a bubble top. And fix the exhaust problem b4 you carry people
Why not a wot box so your boost don’t fall off when you’re shifting?
Thank you
Perfect to take the kids to school in.
The think the large exhaust should be past your rear bumper so it isn’t swirling around under the car.
So uuuh, you remember how the carbon monoxide leaked in though the rear? And the you put a seat *closer* to the leak? Yeah that ain't gonna feel good
It’s still gonna exit under the back and go in the cab. 😂
Y know that the factory volvo S pipe is available new ahah
Lol I love it
Are the miata videos done for ?
Hans device is must
”The fake tip”
In Sweden se say ”gubbkrök” = like, old man exhaust bend. I cant translate krök to English :(
Sound like the audio from the mic is panned waay to the left channel.
Crazy to think he started playing forzia horizon now he’s messing with actual cars. Make a horizon video for the one time man!
believe it or not, the sketchiest modification was actually the guy who fabricated the thing
Idk why but the seat gives me electric chair vibes 😮
Hose clamp for marking pipe
Front end collision with someone in that seat would probably snap their neck…💀💀
Tailgate seal is probably trash, letting the exhaust back in
sick build. seems more like 500 hp in the video though
I had to fly off my ship backwards like that. It was totally uncomfortable
You should actually just flatten that tip and put it out the back of the bumper Or do duel exhaust
Some beefier oh shit handles would be a plus 😂
I feel people don’t understand how sleepy this thing is fr
I'd find way to keep the trunk open when doing burnouts
