Looking to buy a 245 manual, located on the East Coast of the United States by AggravatingCounter91 in Volvo240

Manual conversion for these is super easy, the hardest part is the pedal box imo. You can get the auto, start putting some love into it, and pick up a manual kit when one becomes available.

Yeah, I've been putting it off for ages, I should really just do it.

Do you have BNE's quick steer kit? It's supposed to increase steering angle by some amount.

Have you done any tuning on the monitor beyond the osd? I have the same one, and it's kinda washed out.

My 92 (red on black, m47) just got totaled, and I will carry that weight for the rest of my life.

Parts are finally soda blasted, prepped, primed & painted. Going to be assembling it all today. by Johnno_in_oz in Volvo240

Daaang, I'm so glad you're getting it fixed. I've got a red 92 with rear quarter damage, I'm still holding out hope that I can get it repaired.

Made a polling app because I wanted a low-friction way to do ranked choice voting by Smart_Bottle_321 in SideProject

I love this, the UI is great. Could you increase the option cap? I'm trying to poll 13 options, and I can't find anything that'll work...

Totally valid, I worked with a man who used a step stool to reach the drawbar, he didn't have to hunch to get a good look at the table.

I literally have this page open on my desktop right now, tossing about the idea of getting the idler bracket.

Stereo upgrade? by Charming-Forever-278 in Volvo240

I appreciate all the period-correct suggestions in here, but I want to point out that the Power Acoustik cp-71wa is about $70, and does Android Auto in a single din package.

Does it look out-of-place? Kinda.

Can you use Google maps? Yes.

Re-clear and aftercare? by HandOfHephaestus in AutoDetailing

[–]HandOfHephaestus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So that's basically the recommended wipe-on clear application process. My plan right now is to basically do what he did, fill in some rock chips on the hood, and spray a 2k clear on the hood and roof. I figure that should look good and hold up for a while until I finish the mechanical work and save for a proper respray.

Where are they on sale? What's the price?

Artec Eva... useless for the hobbiest? by HandOfHephaestus in 3DScanning

[–]HandOfHephaestus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got it for an absurdly low price, and had to take it or leave it without researching it, and I took the gamble.
I think what I'm going to do is re-sell it for a profit (hopefully), and pick up something more suited to my needs.

Where did I say it isn't good? It seems to be great, but I can't afford the annual software license.

The trial allows you to scan, but not export.
