RWD Corrado or Mk2 Golfy

Bit of idle speculation for the future & been pondering this for a while.

Now I love my dubs but love my RWD wagons.

Can't help thinking a fettled VR6 Corrado with RWD would be ace & also what a laugh my valver Golfy would be as RWD.

Anyone ever pondered it/done it?

Not a mega job I dont imagine? just Rallye gearbox/prop/rear axle minus front driveshafts? & syncro boot area floor pan welded in place?

 

I'd love mine to be RWD, imagine 300bhp going through to the rear wheels on a mk2 golf

 

would be pretty sweet,

especially if you could choose some how, have 4wd running gear, then you could change it between front, rear or 4 wheel drive,

not quite sure thats possible though! lol

Now that WOULD be cool

I want

 

Apparently this is 4wd drive...



The wing is just stupid but I like the wheels in white with the colour, not sure about the checks... ?

 

Th worlds 1st car plane

 

Im thinking along mid engine rwd at the moment im talking to a place in bicester about the possible options and cost of labour........ its no where near easy tho or cheap!!!!

 

that corrdo looks f**king ace, that spoiler actaully really does suit it!!

 

that spoiler is truly gash, rest is ok,

I like the chequers , but the spoiler I ermm don't.

 

Came from googled results of 4wd Corrado,

Might be technically tosh but it's there.

 

You could do something similar to this, but with a corrado and rwd drivetrain:

It'd ba a major pain in the ass to do rwd. Easier to do 4wd as all the stuff is available pretty much bolt on

 

especially if you could choose some how, have 4wd running gear, then you could change it between front, rear or 4 wheel drive

this is pretty much how the 4 motion system works in the V6 or R32 (i think thats 4 motion) basically the power is put out to the wheels that have the best grip front 4wd or more rear thats why its such a great system.

Incorrect

the power is never taken away from the front wheels

the fronts will always be powered, the rears just come in to power anything up to 50/50 of the drive, never anythign more. the rears cannot possibly transfer more than the front as the prop and rear diff is only run orr a transfer box which is keyed into the outer casing of the front diff.

And if you're wondering how I know, it's because I have a 4WD corrado.

if you just want to do donuts go buy a westfield.

 

So PhatVR6, how's the Corrado project coming along??
