    some of my lifters in my N/A b234 are collapsed. i have some good lifters from a b205 out of a 02 9-3 and i’m tempted to put them in temporarily just to get rid of the terrible ticking noise. any thoughts or recommendations? i know using used lifters from another engine isn’t the best thing, but...

    Now I know it's better option as far as tuning to have the b204. But I have a b205 100 000 kilometers and the current b204 in my car on it's way out. I have found very little on this subject...probably for good reason. But let's say I want the b205 in my t5 car. Can I make an adapter for t5...

    Hi and thanks for looking, hopefully a guru or two can help me out here. I'm aware that N/A to Turbo questions are common but my searching didn't return easily digestible results. --- I thoroughly enjoyed my 96 900s before it was totaled and would like to have another. Looking through...

    Does anyone know the dimensions and weight of a B204 engine with a manual transmission? I am curious to know whether it would be a good engine for an application in a MidLana build. I want to build one in the mid-long-term future so I'm starting the engine research now.
  9. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    Anybody see any issues with installing a B205R from a 2003 9-3 convertible in a 1999 B204L car? I have the entire donor car available for parts, and yes, I understand that the older engine is less prone to sludge. The 2003 engine has less than 90K on it and I'll also swap the turbo, auto...
