What are the issues with the electrics on the 4 wheel drive system, also are there any other issues/weakness'. I didn't know they did a 4 wheel drive system. How good would a 4 wheel drive 206 Gti be! By the sounds of things it would be a bad idea though wih using this system
Bump
Its the fact it wont take any sort of power for long.

Is it the diff that shatters? Or transmission shaft weakness? Interested to learn the faults of the system

I have been looking around for the T16 transfer box as its more bulky but then if I use the MI16 transfer box there are no electrical wizardry tasks to be done :/
I was just browsing pictures of the bell housing online and it seemed to similar so I got in touch with Spoox. The main issue I would have is going from cable to linkage!
The second would be going from a hydraulic clutch to a cable clutch. Unless you can change the fork inside the bell housing from a pull type fork to a push type fork?
Its just out of curiosity I am researching this and to see if it could actually be done in theory. I would have to spend alot of time getting the transfer box in and fitting the exhaust all in the recessed fire wall which is slightly off putting haha
whats the thoughts guys?

I think the whole floor pan was used. For sure it would be possible with a 206 using the Escort cosworth but why bother. If you could get a sierra shell shortended and made to fit it would be a very good effort.

By far cheaper to fit a 206 shell to a cosworth floor pan and work from that
