As above
i'm thinking and planning a AWD Corsa just for the fun of it
and i would like to know opinions on wich 4x4/awd system do you like best for highpowered car
personally i like torson stuff better
but would like more views...

For now i have this doner cars lined up:
- Sierra Cossie
- Celica GT4
- Audi S2
- Sunny GTiR
- EVOs
- Scoobys

Howhever, going crazy...
- SUPRA engine on S2 drivetrain (or other)
- RS4
- Skyline

I've seen all this cars crashed and for sale, so it is possible to get the mechanics without spoiling a good car.

I might use the doner engine also!

Toughts please...

Thanks

S2 setup is the best, anything japanese is too complicated, and all computer controlled, the sierra stuff is good, but the gearbox wont deal with loads of power

Audi stuff for me

or you could use opel stuff and hope it doesnt break

True
thats winning for me too
the 2.2 ABY engine is lovely and with cool achievments
also the 4x4 is very in my likings and handles the power like robmarriott says!!!

As long as you dont choose modern Quattro, as apparantly its not a patch on "proper" Quattro.

if its good enough for Group B rally cars, and Hans Dahlbacks creations, its good enough for a Corsa.
