    Audi Coupe rear floorpan

    I have a Coupe GT and thinking about making it quattro. I know this is possible with rear floorpans from B2/B3 quattro cars, but around here it is easier to get a B4 quattro. Can I use B4 floorpan instead?

    B2 and B3 has almost the same running gear and floor pan. B4 is completely different so it definitely does not fit as is. Of course, you can weld anything to a piece of metal but that's a different story.

          I have read it, but I am still going to do it most likely.

              I have one rear flor panel from S2 Coupe. And I am also thinking about welding it to B2 Coupe

                Will do, when the time comes. Limited time and resources as I am currently in school, so am not sure of when the project will start for full

                    I am glad to see I am not the only nut case. LOL

                    Lots of welding. I got stuck with extending the chassis legs to the rear of the car. Later I discovered that the factory just extended the chassis legs across and above the boot floor, leaving a gap between the chassis leg and the boot floor.

                      One more question about the conversion. Is it possible to drill out spotwelds on both cars and weld those or do you have to measure and cut with say plasma cutter?

                        Personally I think it's a bad idea to do it-but good luck with the project.

                          Found an Audi 100 C3 sedan for a cheap buck. I assume I can't use the rear floorpanel on this one?

                              No-one knows about the spotweld/cutting deal?
