Title: How much work would be involved? S3 4motion
Post by: bricey on 06 November 2011, 08:35
just been thinking  :laugh:,
if one was to remove to v6 engine from my car and put an agu lump in it,
how much work would be involved......
i have done an engine convertion before but that was in a old eg civic changing to a B16,but all engine mounts lined up etc etc and obviously not 4wd system.
would you be able to connected the 4wd up?

Put it up for sale, you may get lucky, not the best time of year to sell a car however.

when my mate Dan done his S3 4motion it was relatively simple because everything was dropped from the 4mo and then literally everything from the S3 was bolted in its place.. dont get me wrong its not a simple conversion by any means..

Dan managed to do his whole car S3 4mo to over 450bhp including buying the s3 and the 4mo for under 7k  :shocked:
