    2.5 TDi engine into Quattro Coupe

    Is their much work involved? Am I right in thinking that the 2.5 tdi lump and 6 speed gearbox from a C4 tdi Quattro should be a straight swap into this? (mechanically)

    Looks like a good base for such a project: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/G-REG-AUDI...30836830349%26

      new front shafts
      prop
      linkage
      mounts
      rewire
      custom exhaust
      lifter pump in tank from say a 1.9tdi a4

      would be good once done.

      on motorgeek there is a user with one in a white quattro saloon.

        Some of these threads might give you some insight

        Barely finished one project and already knee deep in another. Just finished pulling the motor and transmission out of my B4 90 quattro. I was going to enjoy the V6 a bit longer but the water pump failed on it... and since you have to take the front end apart to get to it, might as well just yank...

        Well, I think now I have enough parts laying everywhere to start putting some together... And most importantly, I picked up my engine at the Pierre-Elliot-Trudeau airport yesterday! So here is the project: putting a 5 cylinder 2.5 TDI in my 1987 4000S Quattro, and I decided I wouldn't retrofit...

        Like my 90q is not rare enough I've decided I needed something more.. First idea was to get a tired S2 and throw in the tdi into it. Then use the ABY to power my SQ project. But, S2s are actually going up in value and it's hard to find a car that has good body for peanuts. So.. I managed to...

        AFAIK the engine will bolt right in, the box will fit (with ABY S2 gearbox mounts, linkage, propshaft (coupe or avant hyrbid) and front subframe (driveshaft mix and match?))
