There's some mental local Corrado's cropping up alately, can't wait to see this one complete.

Is end of the month R32'd and wavetrac'd? Job well done if it is :salute:

well my exams finish the 22nd may, im doing all the mechanicals which hopefully wont take more than a week, then over to SWICT for the wiring/ remap..hopefully middle of June will be complete!! fingers crossed....i'll be about in it somewhere..... :D

good luck with the conversion, you will need it.

 

on another note i will have a fully operational sigma m30 alsrm for sale soon, its got both the alarm fobs included.

Karl's was a Mk4 lump I believe so wouldn't have used an FPR as the MK4 has one on the fuel line like the VR. Just the Mk5 lumps need an FPR. Good luck with the conversion though dude, if you're handy with a spanner you shouldn't find it too difficult, the mechanical side of it is easy really, it's the wiring and the faffing about getting it running right afterwards that takes the time!

[KADVR6 0]

as rob said the mechanical side is very easy, it literally just drops onto the vr mounts so thats easy, you can easily just use one spal 11" fan.

 

then comes the wiring issues but going to SWICT is a good move, as you wont end up in the same situation i did :censored:

 

and yeh the sigma is a great alarm, i will post the spec later for you as for price say £75 inc postage.

That looks very nice fella! Whereabouts in Hudds are you from?

 

And get yourself on the forum i run . :) http://www.hdvag.co.uk/forum/index.php Based in Huddersfield.

nice looking rado, I found the trickiest part of the r32/audi 3.2 conversion was sourcing all the relevent parts.....oh yeah and searching for any dropped money behind the sofa!

 

good luck with it all, say hi to mark at swict for me.

[h6 vwc 0]

will do mate, thanks..yeh getting the parts together is tricky but am nearly there im hoping....being at uni though my funds are very low right now!!!lol

I will say, if you are having to source parts, try and get the right parts for the right engine i.e. if it's an Audi lump get the Audi parts and same with the Mk5 lump etc. Reason being is even though they're the same lump, they're not happy with different parts here there and everywhere so if you want it to go smoothly stick with the correct parts, you'll only end up buying again otherwise (or so Vince has said!).

well yes and no, i have a vw eos loom powering the audi ecm, and a vw r32 pedal which may be a mk4 that controls the audi horses . but some components are model specific such as the maf sensor (im led to believe). So with a little research and gut feeling/luck you can use a combination of parts.

Yeah I suppose a lot of the parts would just be shared, but I just know that Vince had a mk2 R32 conversion at his when I was getting my wiring done and it had an Audi lump and used some R32 parts and he ended up having to get all the correct bits. Not sure which bits exactly though. Mine was fussy with the lambda probes, I got ones for the audi lump 2nd hand but my ECU didn't like them.

R32'd....remapped....wavetracced.....coilovered......should be ready tomorrow from the exhaust place.....went custom rather than dubpower.....got loadsa pics etc an info ive gathered..:...maybe collab with some r32ists on a guide to it..........atif

congrats on that. Good to hear someone has done one so quick :salute: :salute: Get the pics up then!

[h6 vwc 0]

pictures are on the way.....ive misplaced my phone to pc lead!! but all i can say about the performance is wow!!!!! vag doc did the wiring and remap which he says with good induction and exhaust makes 280bhp.....and oh does it feel it!!! the car launches off and under throttle sounds bang on like a mk5 r32!!! im lovin it......nearly......vag doc needs to come back and get the rev counter working aswell as sort the fan and wiper wiring!! thanks

[big ben 10]

it cant of gone that smoothly :lol:

[fla 9]
