building a sportquattro

[DJones]

@DJones; yes its a 10V. I need to go through the dutch SVA with the 10V in it. The original engine that came with the car. I've took the oppertunity to make it compatible with Vems. So I can play with it on the 10V.
Thanks guys

Be interesting to know how you get on and what the spec is.. when mine was a 10v i used Luminition and loved every minute of it. i got mine to about 340bhp..

Keep up the good work..

Darren.

The 10v is a KV, so it's NA. I think it will be pulled out of the bay the day after it's approved by the "sva".
Has to make room for the real stuff

Dang
Nice work

[s2_bo]

Nice work on the fuel lines! that looks amazing!

Great to see more progress. The machined parts are stunning! Where are you thinking of running the exhaust?

[Jeffer]

It's pleasant to see some real progress indeed. Looks like paint on the outside in 2 weekd. That will be exciting
I bought silensers from Simons. 3,5 inch. 2 pcs, 1 long one for in the middle and one shorter that will be at the rear. I'm planning on squeezing that 3,5 inch over the subframe. So the routing will be like stock.

[Jeffer]

I came to the conclusion that the springs are probably to long and to hard. The car is still very high in the air, and the perches are all the way down. Even with 2 people pushing on the rear off the car, it hardly gives. So I need to figure out wich springs will suit, and will make it sit at a nice height.

Yo, Jeff!! Looks great man!! I come on S2forum for a couple of projects, and yours is one of them. Love the fuel setup. I dont think that 10v will get enough of it though!!!! LOL

I love the fuel line clips. I will probably be copyin them here in the next couple of weeks!!

Machine work looks great!!

Would it be possible to mould the area that the exhaust passes over the rear subframe slightly to give more room?

Or are you thinking of spacing the rear subframe slightly?

Jeffer,

You should be proud of yourself that looks excellent. Is that a 10v i see in the last picture? is that what your going to use?

10v's do give a nice sound

Hope not as it cocks up the rollcentre. Spacing the sub frame is NOT an option.

You can get oval exhaust tube. The big engine yank stuff uses it. Should help with clearence!

I'll have a look into it, I was just curious as i've heard of a few forum members either thinking about or already doing that.

I take it that with an avant the routing is different so its better? (just incase I ever quattro my tdi)

[Jeffer]

Its been done before, putting 3,5 inch over the rear shaft. I'll give it a shot. Oval tube is also a possibility.
@ urqguy. I can send you the solidwork drawing of the line brackets.

Lengths is dependant on ride height you want but i'd advise 400-500lb fronts and slightly softer rear springs as a good firm setup... i cant see the SPQ weighing that much tbh and that should be plenty for stiff ride. If you wanted softer then 350 front and 300 rear may be another good basepoint.

measuring stock Quattro shocks i've gone for 9" 300lb front and 9" 275lb rears on my Coupe Quattro Rally replica...

Yeah, send the DWG file on over!! HankIroz at Yahoo dot com!! I appriciate it
