4wd Conversion Info

Recommended Posts

You can use standard golf syncro bits with a tuned g60 lump, that would be fine. The syncro rear axle is the same as the rallye.

 

A mate of mine has run the golf syncro bits on his mk2 for about 1 year now with 350bhp and he has had no problems apart from the gearbox is on its way out, but then the rallye/passat g60 ones are crap as well. I'm going to have a spare gearbox in the garage at home, just in case.

 

If you need to read up on what you can or can't do have a look at http://www.vwsyncro.co.uk - best place to research into it - thats what I did before I did my conversion.

Was that a UK based Syncro or a Euro G60 Syncro Ben? Im 100% sure that the UK based Syncros diffs will explode with

anything over 115 BHP. Thats why my brother just sold the Syncro we bought.

020 syncro box is the weak point, you need an 02A one really.

 

Still haven't got round to starting my VR6 syncro setup....

yes.

 

well, the transfer box and the diff need to be matched.

 

the rallye one is a different ratio to the Vr6 syncro one, but I think the golf syncro one is just the same as a rallye on.
