Euge's LWB Sport Quattro

[quattrostyle]

Do the type 85 diff and CBL box share the same ratio?

[quattro-nick]

yes,the ratio are both 4.11
urquattro is different,i believe it's 3.89

[Simons]

it's a good goal for a street car, launches from zero km/h kill all transmision hardware...it's the price you must pay for it, but it's very exciting

All s2,rs2,s4... gearbox has a torsen central diff and many of them aren't cooled (afaik only DSY is cooled, v8 rear diff isn't cooled), and usually you can break a gear before the torsen diff, also the torsen isn't bullet proof...with more parts more posible clearances, breaks, weight...but it's much better than a open diff

If you want someting bullet proof you can talk with repo for example

i'm planning to drive the car in snow conditions and also get it on frozen lake from time to time + driving on gravel roads is all what quattro is about in my opinion, hence I want to pick an option that would withstand the pressure.

Some progress done as well.

Modified the oil pan to allow clearance with the bottom cross tube. Thanks to Marko who shared his knowledge.

few more shots of job done

Hi guys, need your help!

I'm trying to wire the brake lines for the master cylinder and brake pressure regulator. Can anyone tell me I got it right?

[Simons]

If you want, tomorrow I can take some photos of my stock master cylinder

[JTK]

Hi mate, yes please if you can!

[Simons]

the pics, the master's front lines are for the front brakes

[JTK]

Right, back I am!

Bought few parts to finish off engine bay.

Bought Wagner Inlet, ABY water manifold, ABY fuel rail, ABY engine loom.



Also got the metal bits for the rear arch reinforcement off Brian and started striping off the shell to offer composite panels.







and then offered left composite panel to the body shell

[JTK]

started on the right site... and the problem appeared.. the panel is too short, by about 30mm... and is different to the left one... what could be the problem, any guesses? panels been stored for 5yrs in "Home" conditions.

arch dimensions:

From the central nut to the front/rear:

Left panel: 33,5cm/41,5cm
Right panel: 34cm/39cm

Quick question, am I ok to use my original clutch master cilinder part 15? 857721401A
in other words, when you do a 20vt swap with 6gear tranny do swap cylinder as well or not.

[quattro-nick]

the master clutch cilinder inside have the same diameter so
use the slave cilinder from the 6 speed gearbox and the origional master cilinder from the b2 coupe quattro on the pedal
