Hi people,
like everyone here in this section of the forum, i would like to present to you my non-Audi Project of an Autocross Buggy! It is a low budget Project! Everything is chosen under this perspective! Reliable and low budget! In fact it is a mix of many cars!
It has an Rohrrahmen (Roll -type frame, i dont know how its called in english) one seat and the Engine is mounted in the middle of the car! The Gearbox is a Frontwheel drive gearbox placed on the back of the engine!
For the motor i have choosen the Opel-Vauxhaul C20XE Engine, 2 liters and about 150 BHP! I have choosen this engine because it is reliable, and easy to find spare parts!On the buggy it will be used without cat and with a free flowing exhaust witch i hope it will give some more power! I am also going to change the induction a little in order to make it breath a little better (the stock SFI-Box is very restrictive). It has got a separate runner exhaust manifold from the factory! The Engine runs on a Motronic 2.5.
The gearbox is an Audi 80 1.8 liter FWD gearbox! I choose this one because it is almost unbreakable. It is in fact heavy but it can take some abuse! I am trying to locate a Torsen like diff for it and how to make it have a closer ratio!
The front Suspension is with double scissors (thats is how we call it-maybe wishbones?) and some Jeep Dampers rebuilt in order to install springs on them!
The back suspension is the front suspension and brakes of a Golf 2!
The steering, pedals and other stuff are coming from a Fiat.
Here aresome Pictures of it (sorry, bad quality):
It is going to look like this! It is an identical of the guy who built my chassis-cage-frame. I am going to have the same Suspension system and same engine and gearbox! Me and he are only going to change the nose now beause it is a bit ugly!
Think also i am going to make mine in Yellow-Black!
The frame in front is mine.
The Front Suspension
The Back
