ryanmac 10 Posted July 7, 2011 Hi All, Just out of interest how do you go about converting the C to 4wd? I take it you use the rallye rear subframe, driveshafts, and hubs along with the rallye or syncro gearbox and diff? Does the tunnel need widening and the boot floor flattened? I did type it in to google and this forum came up with a definitive guide but the link was broken. cheers Ryan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
floppyman 0 Posted July 7, 2011 The best would be having the tunnel and the trunk floor of the rallye welded in the corrado... Its alot of work.... Search on the vortex I think its there aswell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted July 7, 2011 Blue95 in Milton Keynes has done this, great result but a lot of work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob_B 0 Posted July 7, 2011 I think the Corrado tunnel is fine for 4wd. Boot floor needs cutting out though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quicky1980 0 Posted July 7, 2011 loads of threads on this, give the search a go. but basic conversion involves syncro or rallye fuel tank, boot floow and hardware. the tunnel is fine on the rado for the prop shaft. read a nice feature with a guy fitting audi tt metal work into a golf mk11, so this is another option for the rado...

bristolbaron 10 Posted July 7, 2011 the easiest option if you can find one is to use a mk2 syncro as a breaker.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quicky1980 0 Posted July 8, 2011 would be the simplest method, but not the easiest as the mk2 syncro's are hard to get a hold of and are fetching quite a bit of money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted July 8, 2011 Syncro gear for sale on here. After wtinessing the haldexed R32 turbo Corrado lanch at Gti it would be nice to have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryanmac 10 Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) cheers for the replies guys. It's not something I will be doing in the near future but it was just out of interest really as I noticed in the for sale the rear setup for the conversion. Syncros are expensive nowadays. I went and looked at one that had no tax or mot and was proper rough and the guy still wanted £1200 for it!!! I would love to do it though at somepoint because I think with the 32 engine and 65 charger it would be awesome on the track.... If I wanted to convert my corrado to 4 wheel drive would the audi s3 quattro setup work? rear axle, haldex unit, drive shafts, prop shafts....

ryanmac 10 Posted July 10, 2011 Right so my day dreaming is over and I have for sale the rear subframe, driveshafts and haldex unit for sale that was removed from an audi s3 quattro with only 30000miles on the clock. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
