Jam.e.s 0 Posted November 11, 2012 Hey, I have been gathering information about putting haldex into a Corrado for a fair while and though I would share what I have so far. Mostly geared towards us in North American as far as parts availability but makes for a decent read none the less. Fitting the 02m into a Corrado Parts Needed 1.Custom Driveshafts (either shorten stock or buy for ~700 usd from DSS) -For wide front, subframe from VR6, Gti and Tdi from Golf mk3 the driveshaft length is 327 mm. and 423 mm. - For stock Mk2 subframe the driveshafts are 7 mm shorter. - Measurements are taken from flange to flange on the inner side of the CV-joints. 2. Custom Mounts front and rear (available from sdezego http://www.generalprinciple.com/sd/shawnweb.nsf/02mmounts?openpage ~300 usd) 3. Modify Tunnel and Shift box or aquire Euro Shift Box from CA '96-'03 Caddy LU '99-'03 Lupo / Lupo 3L TDi LU '04-'06 Lupo / Lupo 3L TDi PO '95-'00 Polo / Derby PO '00-'02 Polo / Derby POC '00-'02 Polo Classic / Variant Part #: 6N0 711 061 A House 6N0 711 090 A Ground plate 6N0 711 611 C Choise arm (~70 euros) 4. Clutch cable for an 02m and mk2/3 master, can be purchased from USP or it can be custom http://uspmotorsports.com/product_info.php?products_id=574 5. Correct bolt/studs for the 02m Starter 6. Flywheel and Clutch matched to transmission 7. Must have VR6 splined hubs. For 4 bolt non plus suspension you have to fill and drill vr6 hubs or have the 4 bolt hubs resplined. Resplining can be done by RCV performance of Illinois. - The splines are NOT the same for o2m and o2a axles but the outer CV has the same spline. Modifications required to car 1.moving the transmission mount cup on the subframe approximately 1/2" to properly clear the larger 02m CV flange Miscellaneous Speed Sensor: 02a MK3 VR6 Speed Sensor Harness ---------> 02M harness Black ----------------------------------> Black/White Blue/White ------------------------------------> Blue/White Red/Green ------------------------------------> Brown Nice part is you can fit the 02m and run fwd while you figure out the next major hurdle, the haldex swap. Haldex Swap Parts Needed 1. Syncro rear axle assembly converted to accept haldex dif with dutch build kit (around 400 usd) 2. Rear end options: Axle (circled are the 3 bolt axle mounts): a) 1992 Passat G60 (available in European and Canadian markets) -A popular option for those in North America due to the relative ease of acquiring parts. -Requires either modifying the rear of the car to accept 4 bolt axle mounts such as "MrDave" did: or the purchase of 3 bolt rear axle mounts from overseas which look like this: -The floor and rear end must then be grafted in. -With this setup you can use the stock fuel filler location. -The downside is that you have a 70l fuel tank which hangs below the rear bumper. b) Rally/Mk2/Mk3 syncro rear end -This setup is similar to the passat, but is tailored more to installation into the Corrado. -Uses a smaller 50l gas tank which does not hang below the vehicle. -Difficult to source because was never available in North America. Rallye pan: 191813116 $244 c) The third method is to use a fuel cell. -To do this you need the mk2 axle mounting brackets, as well as the differential support crossmember. -Requires removing the spare tire well. 3. Haldex Rear differential. Must be from a generation one haldex car. In North America this is easiest to source from an Audi TT. 4. Centre propshaft must be shortened, but bolts up without modification. Requires hangers to be welded into the tunnel. 5. Custom haldex to wheel driveshafts. Syncro ones work with some motivation, but shortened ones original to haldex would also work. 6. Standalone Haldex controller, or mechanical screw in controller. Check ebay.de That is all I have for now. Feel free to contribute a little bit of information so we can make a definitive parts and information list for those looking to swap. I will update the original post as I get information for ease of access.:thumbup: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
