In the beginning not so good (right before Xmas). I tried another time not too long ago and then everything went ok. Shipment was done via DHL, I wiretransferred the money instead of Rakaror deducting money via creditcard.

I got my 2002 V70T Running! A few Vacuum Lines, PCV system service, flush the engine oil and coolant, and a mass air flow sensor. Gonig to take the V70 X/C into the snow next week. Starting work on a Red 2002 V70T that was sold off this site in 201,7 in a few months. If anyone has Big Turbos (that fit), larger fuel injectors or a performance exhaust they want to part with at reasonable prices, let me know. It's going to rebuild the engine and make a few modifications.

Finally got to replacing the front+rear discs + pads with fresh new stuff.

Front: Brembo Xtra Line 305mm drilled + Ferodo Premier pads + new brake hoses + DOT4 fluid
Rear: Brembo Xtra Line 288mm drilled + Ferodo Premier pads + new brake hoses + DOT4 fluid

1 Setback, one of the nipples (rear right) sheared off, so ordered a new caliper.
