For Sale....R32 Drive train. Serious offers only

Sick minds think alike.  My email mirrors many of your thoughts on this.  

HOWEVER...

He is selling it with the suspension, and "everything needed to do the swap"  I can handle the wiring and such... even if we get lost we have MY car to look at and go "oh shit that's how it goes."  I am almost tempted to shitcan the RWD portion.  But I think this can be done.  I am coming to Ohio in a few weeks, Thanksgiving at the latest, we need to go to bar or something and sit down and plan this out.  I think it can be done.  F*ck if nothing else we could get a rail buggy and mount that sumb*tch in there.

Let's do it.

Holy sweet Jesus!

Installing that drivetrain in a scirocco would make
the Durocco project look like changing a spark plug...
on a lawn mower.

All of the suspension would need to be redesigned, the
whole floor pan would need to be cut up and re-done...
and then there's the electronics and stuff.

I don't hesitate for a second when I say that the
project is well beyond the scope of my current
tallents.

Now if someone can figure out a way to adapt the stuff
in without all the mods mentioned then sign me up... I
just don't see how.

And while it would be completely rediculous to be able
to claim an R-32 Scirocco the haldex centered
drivetrain is'nt all that performance oriented.

After having put some flogging time on a friends R I
found the all wheel drive to be less than fun, it
starts out as front wheel drive and transfers power as
it sees fit... we disagreed a lot on when I needed
power to the rear wheels.

The haldex can be tweaked with a controler but to my
knowledge there can never be more than 50% power to
tthe rear... that simply will not do!

If someone builds this thing I will be the first to
line up to kiss your ass... that's one hell of an
undertaking!

Shit man, do it!
