Looking for some thoughts and opinions. Im wanting to rebuild my baby. This car has been my saving grace and I've went threw countless others, while Ive just threw pennies and nickles at this gem and it just keeps going. I dont want a rolex. Timex chop, takes a licking and keeps on ticking kind of ride. 96 a4 quattro 2.8 5 speed manual. What would be the best, most afforable, and easiest swap? Im wanting to swap interior dash ect.., motor, and drive train if need be and as much as i can without alot of new holes cutting welding and grinding. Im looking at doners and want the best most efficient swap I can get. What can I do? Thanks in advance!

 

Hi there! I wish I had that engine in my A6! Is there not any tuning modifications you can do to your existing engine? This way you wouldn't have to chop up your lovely car! As regards e engine swap, what model so you have?
All the best
Andy

 

I understand your desire to restore your 1996 Audi A4. These cars are really hardy and I understand why you want to keep it.
P.S. You don't want a Rolex but I can tell you that they are also very hardy!
