I've been wanting to build an AWD T-5R for so long. Watching your videos has finally pushed me to get it started! thanks for the awesome info and videos!
Have a 850 awd built in progress atm, and cant wait for you to drop the parts you have designed! Great work and can't wait to see what the end result's gonna look like! :D
My dream is to do a build like this myself:) Right now I'm just a young uni student with an 850 NA 10 valve wagon, but once I get the funds (Many years in the future), I'll definitely be doing this! Your work ethic is admirable
Love your videos👍, I subbed to you because of the volvo 5 cylinder in my ford focus st😁 . Quaife LSD will be installed to my car soon too. Keep it up, i would love to hear that thing back up running and make some power 💪💥🔥
Oh! Now i see why you were concerned about the heat on the angle gear in your latest vid! That seal wont like the heat your turbo is going to put it thru! Heat wrap the turbo and put on some kind of thin heat deflector foil between the angle and turbo? Just to deflect some of that heat that the turbo is radiating!
hey dude. been following your videos with a lot of interest lately. Just wondering ... in terms of press fitting bearings ... have you ever though of putting together some kind of liquid nitrogen set up so that you can just cold-drop the bearings in place? Yes - there's a lot of setup involved and it has it's own safety issues but it's crazy easy to install bearings this way
Why do you have to have the oil feed line straight down? Considering it's pressurize, shouldn't it not make a difference to angle it a bit for better return line pipe fitment?
Just wondering if the visco coupling is only transferring power to the rear wheels when you have wheelspin at the front. Would a Haldex coupling do better? I presume you would want more power to the rear wheels before wheelspin occurs.
On stock torque levels the visco wont transfer torque until the front wheels start to slip. When you start making 300lbft+ of torque the visco will lock 50/50 no matter if the front wheel spin or not... in both situations the torque transfer happens very quickly. Haldex isn't instant either (depending on which version you use). Adapting a haldex AOC will be considered if I have problems with the VC or I will just lock the drive train full time 4wd 50/50.
The transmission will bolt to the engine, but all of the mounts and all of the AWD stuff is completely different. All of my content is very P80 specific (850, X70).
I used the 707 + 6 puck ceramic on a modified 850 flywheel in my old FWD setup. Im going a completely different route this time (twin disc). I don't think a single disc is going to handle the heat well with AWD launching and I dont want to be welding discs. Not to mention the 707 & 765 are so heavy. Old setup was 45lb my new setup is 15lb.
Where did the idea of a ~750 hp 850 T-5R AWD come from anyways? Did you see me talking about that fictional 850 TT5/R AWD of mine and thought "let's make a real life Rstein!"
@@SimplyVolvo I try to find the OEM suppliers too. But I mostly buy OEM too. I learned the cheap parts lesson too many times, (Pro Parts Sweden wheel bearing a couple years ago, literally wore out in 500 miles!)
Starting a 1999 V70R AWD manual build and I will definately have my eye on that angle gear... Great work mate!
Simply mind blowing engineering!! You are so talented!
Nice work Matt.
Glad to see I'm not the only one with Volvo OCD. 😀
Love these videos! Your dedication to this car and the community is amazing.
Thanks for the shoutout bro! ❤️ getting a little excited seeing this almost done haha. I’m learning A LOT from this video series

That pro parts Sweden mount is nice. I use it on my VR. A lot of vibration from it though. Car isn't a daily though.
Very nice! Thanks for making the content!
Nice s70 there . Good work bro !!
Lookin great brother!

Hopefully can get it back on the dyno soon! Thanks for the kind words!
Bless you for doing this. Thank you
Glad you are enjoying it!

What's the torquespecs on the ring gear, quaife dosen't seem to have it, nor anybody else

I love watching you go along with this build. Does all of this stuff work with the newer volvo 5 cylinders? Like a 2010 S40

809⁹
The AWD off the S40/V50 all bolts up just fine if you want to AWD a C30.
Are you using the 707 pressure plate? I did a 765, it's not a direct fit though.

Another great video! Keep on Rockin! Send you a friend request on FB.
Why is it that Volvo engine tilted I am gonna be putting a b5254t with m90 transmission in my car but I am still unsure if I need to tilt it
Not sure. Maybe for hood clearance or maybe something to do with oiling.
@@SimplyVolvo thank you
will you be selling the billet angle gear housing?
Most likely!
Where did the idea of a ~750 hp 850 T-5R AWD come from anyways? Did you see me talking about that fictional 850 TT5/R AWD of mine and thought "let's make a real life Rstein!"
The idea came from the fact that my 837bhp FWD 850 T-5R was absolutely useless unless you were going 120mph+
Are the p1 gearsets stronger than the m58/m56 sets?
Yes the P1 M56H is the strongest M5X gear set and has steel Synchros.
SimplyVolvo awesome! Is it true I can bolt p1 internals into a p80 m56 housing?
@@omarplat334 A 2002.5+ P80 M56 housing. Needs to be a housing with a 23 spline input shaft. Also need to correct 23 spline clutch disc.
The pro parts Sweden mounts may be okay, but don't ever use their bearings.
I dont use anything other than OEM parts unless its something like this.
SKF best in the world ;-)
