    A couple random shots for now. The garage is a disaster area but ignore that.



    Some Goodies in the hatch


    R floor pan and tank



    R Rear under the car after mock up




    Poor R32 had a rough year and a half

    Found this little fellow hanging out below the work bench

    Its the BSH / AFI manifold. Its a very nice, well constructed piece. I've seen AFI manifolds on evos and when I heard BSH was working with them, I had to have one. Its everything I wanted and more.

    Its technically a bolt in I guess. Just have a spare tire well in the way... and missing bolt holes for the gas tank... and no brackets for the drive shaft carrier but Not bad overall.

    Good luck. I am making a list of all bolts and nuts as well as special tools I will need for my mk5 4motion swap.

    Did you get that R32 from Underground that was listed in the R32 parts for sale?

    Yeah the parts are from the TR one Underground had. That was a good deal.

    I messaged you a little while ago with some haldex questions. Are you planning on hooking yours up like factory? I guess its 6 pins so four signal wires from the abs module, one for the esp and one for the e brake. Have you looked into the wiring much yet?

    Heres some side by sides of the R and GTi floor pans.

    Here you can see how much deeper the GTi spare tire well is

    Top view

    Here you can see the differences in the cross beams. The GTi spare tire well only ties into the unibody rail on the drivers side where the R has a beam that goes across the entire floor.

    Also the beam is larger on the GTi creating clearance issues with part of the 4motion subframe.

    I also noticed that the R has a significantly greater number of spot welds than the GTi. Not just around the rear but the whole car.

    Also, Maloosheck, it was your thread that inspired me to do this in the first place.

    We're definitly going to routes with this though.

    TDi 4motion Jetta <-- Practical and unique

    500hp 4motion GTi <-- Not practical at all

    Nothing new. Hopefully will have some time to work on it soon. It needs to be mobile by the end of the month.

    I have been looking into this for a LONG time now...... my only downfall is that i dont know what tranny is capable to mount up to the 2.0t FSI to allow for AWD..... i already found al the R32 parts needed...... If someone could chime in and let me know what tranny is needed for the swap!

    I have a 01 tt225 trans. everything looks good so far. You have to put the R transfer case on the tt trans though as the rear must match the t-case. It LOOKS like this shouldn't be a problem. We will see though.

    I just came across this thread. Any chance you could link the pics? They aren't working for me. I've started rolling my pennies to do the 4motion conversion on my GTI. Can't wait to see what you're able to do with this setup.
