Hello. I have a small workshop in which I am engaged in the restoration of cars from the 80s-90s. This is mainly Audi. I will post interesting projects one by one. The first will be the Audi 90.
Here's what came to me:
I started with welding. There was almost no rust on the body; only sills and rear arches were required to be replaced. An iron profile was welded into the sills to increase the rigidity of the body.
the battery has been moved to the trunk
Hydrohandler installed
On the rear and front there are spacers for the body glasses
Then everything is covered with epoxy primer and then paint. Bottom covered with gravel protection
Before painting the body, you need to arrange everything in the engine compartment, make fasteners and other elements that should be painted, well, in general, try everything on so that you do not cut and cook on the new body. Motor 2.2 20v turbo (AAN)
gearbox 01e custom
Lightweight flywheel, double-leaf basket, this body should digest 600 + Nm
Manifold, 16 in-line mocal oil cooler, thin fan, piping and other tuning
Next, the most difficult thing is to install radiators without changing the appearance, so that the car has a drain outside, without the intercooler hanging under the bumper
fasteners to the side members
A spacer is screwed onto it, on which the intercooler is attached
Another element is the crankcase protection
The result, the grille and the bumper become, nothing is visible.
Then again everything will be sorted out to the bare body and will be painted.
Due to the different location of the turbine, I made a new oil supply line to the turbine.
Downpipe 70mm
I assembled the rear axle shafts, the CV joints sat down well, but still, for reliability, they were put on the lock, so that there would not be a backlash.
The sticks are covered with sand, painted and shrink-wrapped.
With the wings, everything was complicated, I had to spend a couple of days to create a new
Aluminum shields for protection from dirt
Motor in place
To reduce the length of the motor and hide the intercooler with a bumper, I had to grind off the crankshaft pulley
At the same time, replacing the tired crankshaft gear and removing the plunger from the power steering pump to the brake circuit. The alternator belt is now shorter because no viscous coupling and air conditioning
The collector and downpipe are wrapped in a thermal wrap
Preparation and painting of the rest of the body parts.
For a 30+ year old car, this is not an easy process. Most of the elements simply cannot be found in a living state.
The same goes for everything else: the wiper mechanisms
Everything was filmed down to metal. Then it was leveled, filled with epoxy
The time has come to make a new wiring. Since the battery migrated into the trunk, I began by laying a new power one for the generator, starter, fuse box, and also the mass.
Further, AEM additional devices + VAG devices were purchased. ECUmaster brain, wires, heat shrink, etc.
The brain was located in the cabin under the panel and from there he spread the wiring
Vag additional devices overexposed diodes that would fit into the tone of the rest of the illumination
Since the car will be intensively used in winter, all the spars are flooded with Movil and the hidden elements are missed with pushers, a metal pallet protection is also installed.
And an aluminum fuel pump.
Welded exhaust 70mm, with stock can at the end
Since there is a new gearbox, I had to change it from fur to an electronic speedometer
The stock cooling system couldn't cope, so I installed a large aluminum radiator and a more powerful fan.
The standard coils were also replaced with fsi. the regular ones probably struck and after an excess of 1.2 bars they stopped sparking
