Where did you get the batterybox?

Where did you get the batterybox?

The battery box is from a Golf MK5 R32 4 Motion. Because there is no room for the battery in the engine compartment of the R32 it sits in the back.

Hi guys. i'm converting a Corrado VR6 to take the 2.5 TFSI turbo engine (hopefully) I'm still in the early stages and trying to source the rear Syncro subframe before i begin the engine swap. I see a couple of you are doing the swap and i wanted to know what problems i may stumble across when doing the swap/fabrication? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

You can see what I have done to my rear subframe in these thread but I have also seen others who have cut the rear two holders on the haldex 2 but cant see how did they made it screw on the subframe but they get to keep the gas tank . Because I plan to use the original wire harness of a Golf mk5 4 motion my problem now are the ABS rings and the ABS sensors.
If you are after a specific info please ask ?

Look up username BrilliantyellowG60. He's done a couple Corrado syncro swaps. I think his new username is Pileofredparts if you need specifics. Wish I had that kind of money to get that motor and install in my Corrado.

2fast4you2 keep up the good work!! Love the build and have been following it for a quite a while

[2fast4you2]

The car was sanded and put in second hand filler

Would you be interested in adjustable trailing arms to battle the camber issue?

[2fast4you2]

[2fast4you2]

Did some shopping:

a set of Bi-xenon headlights from golf 5 to use the lenses with the shutter on the Rallye headlights



I bot my self a co pilot *



I was going for the antenna but why I bot the navigation I really don't know

a Quattro gearbox





and an MC from Audi TT RS 25.4 mm clip

[2fast4you2]

Moore new parts

I was thinking for a very long time what to use for my gearstick and this is the answer





R pedals



Clutch cylinder



Front Audi TT RS brake lines I tough they were steel braided but I guess I will be buying Braided ones



the pads for Brembo handbrake calipers



finally the MC with the brake fluid tank and the Clutch pump



I also bought a set of 4 Audi RS4 injectors which I will use with the stage 3 or 4 ;D when I buy an engine of course

[airbornejet]

Nice choice.

[2fast4you2]

OK so here is some work done. Finally we started painting The interior and the engine bay have been painted and in the next few days so should the outside











And some more parts:

APR HPFP



Audi S3 IC



and a NS MKV Offset Dashpod from ECS



Audi R8 fuel pressure valve



Audi Oil Cap



and the first thing I will change on my 2.0 TFSI




also updated mu garage with some tools









The only thing that wories me is the size of the IC. It's a bit taller then the Rallye IC ?



but I think I'll find a solution

Yep, sure is.

I crammed one into my Corrado and am in the process of wrapping it up. I needed to use the Corrado VR upper Rad support to get the extra height clearance, but also have an A/C condenser stuffed in there I am sure you will be able to make it work

pics are near the end of my build thread in my sig. Also, pic if you want to see what the inside of the core design looks like

WOW!!!
You had a lot of modifications to make it fit but I dont have an AC so I'm hoping for as little less modifications

[sdezego]

haha, yea. When I bought it, I looked at the rough measurements and figured, it should fit with minor modifications which is why I opted for it vs making my own out of a Bell or Garrett core. 1 minor modification turned into 2, then 3, then... LOL

The one bummer was the small bit I needed to get to fit between the headlights but it turns out it was pretty easy to correct. And, I probably wouldn't have had that problem w/o the A/C condenser pushing it forward.

[Issam Abed]

We need to get moving on this

[2fast4you2]

We need to get moving on this

We certainly should

[wolfens_golf]

love it man, great work, i wish more of these were in canada

[2fast4you2]

Finally Some paint and clear coat





















Only one thing I have to say:
Just the naked eye can see the real beauty of the finish

Also sone more parts arrived:

I bought NEW all possible screws



and a special ??? thing that goes underneath the fixing points of the front fenders



and another styling detail

[2fast4you2]

Finally after 10 months the Rallye is back in my garage









I didn't know where to start I was all over mu garage taking out the parts stashed for the Rallye

[2fast4you2]

Well the assembly has started






And tinted the windows

[pileofredparts]

[2fast4you2]

More parts from the shopping list have arrived

OMP Steering wheel



My racing shoes Alpinestars



Carbone Lorraine brake pads for my rear Camaro SS Brembo Calipers



and some more parts from the VW dealership

Why didn't you pay more attention to the engine bay paintwork? Looks very rough to me.

Your building speeds of all your projects are so high. Looks like you have enough €€

But great job so far

You are right about the engine bay paintwork but I wasn't going for that glossy show look and I wanted the welds to be covered in plaster (the thing that is being put over the welded parts). Sorry but don't know the exact names
About the €€ they come and go
