Just wondering if any body has put a 1.9 tdi into a coupe quattro yet ?
as I am looking at doing one next year

No but if you want a complete donor car let me know.

Audi 80 tdi 1z

No, but I keep kicking the idea round. Main problem I can see is finding a 4wd gearbox with suitable ratios?

5 cylinder 2.5 TDI? :D

You'd need 4WD to handle that torque....:lol:

Finding the right gearbox would be my concern also. But then the later boxes had a dual bolt pattern bellhousing so you might be able to use an A4 tdi quattro box or so.
Edit: I don't know for sure if all newer boxes have the dual bolt pattern.

I did this to a 80 quattro, fitted a 1.6td from a golf gtd, it originaly had a 1.8 petrol so the gear box fitted. Ran it on veg oil for a few years cos Im a peece loving cheep skate hippy type :lol:

As far a gear ratio goes it was great for towing and maxed out at 105mph so not too bad:ihih:

I was going to do a similar covertion with a 2.2 coupe and fit the 2.5td engine from a vw transporter.
The lazy solution would be fit massive tyres to componsate for the higher gear ratio.:idea:

Was about to say the same, much better option, especially if its the 140BHP 5 CYLINDER :D and use the 6 speed from it too...

Or just a 1.9 tdi with bigger injectors and a remap for 140bhp.

Can you get 140 from a 90bhp 1z easily? Guessing .216 nozzles, tuning box, EGR delete and a map?
