I´m on the process of doing the same parking brake upgrade on my 94 HDJ80. Do the Audi 100 calipers bolt straight into the Toyota caliper carrier? Do the Audi sliding pins need machining or the toyota ones? Keep us posted please, this might be the sigth solution for the OEM handbrake nightmare...

Thanks!! Keep us posted on the updates please!

I´m looking for a front 3D scan of front of the 80 series. I´d like to design a custom bullbar. Does anyone have this 3d scan?

I´ll post instal picsl in a months time. I haven´t been able to install everything in the car yet due to delays and issues in the electronics side of the proyect, which have been mostly solved by now.

Oh, nevermind. I need the LHD to adapt a BMW shifter, and the RHD version has a different geometry. Thanks for the 3D scanning work though, having access to 3D scans of the cruisers certainly makes designing parts in CAD orders of magnitude easier.

Is your car an automatic LHD? I´d love to get my hands on a 3d scan of the center console trim piece and the shifter mount plate. These are the two pieces I´m referring to: The shifter mount plate doesn´t need to be dissasembled from the car though. I´m designing a custom shifter knob...

Exactaly, that´s what I think... but this guy seemed pretty convinced that the shafts were different...

Thats a kit for the HDJ100. An early client of this adater kit just told me that the transfer case input shaft has a different spline pattern when compared to the 80 series transfer case, even though the A442f and Hf2A are shared between both platforms. Maybe someone can shed some light on this...

Wow, your swap is looking great, Mike! I´m getting a little bit delayed on mine (Europe is quite poor when it comes to reasonably priced motorsport wiring supplies...), but I´ll post pics when everything is done. I´ve got a couple of questions about the original automatic wiring harness: How...

After speaking to Mike these past few days, we´ve shared our transmission, adapters and cooling set-ups with very interesting differences, specially about the latter. In my case, I´m trying to overbuilt all the areas of the swap for reliability´s sake, and that also includes the cooling system...

Those adapters look great! The wiring for the analog paddles is quite simple, + - and Ground. I ended up designing my own fully adjustable paddle shifters: You can save a substantial amount of money by designing and 3D printing your own parts, but there are also some nice paddle shifters for...

The adapter really looks like has been machined inverted... At least is just the aluminium plate that bolts to the main body of the adapter. I´ve stumbled upon Mr. Murphy´s law quite a few times on my project... The worst time being a typo error when I transfered the gearbox output shaft length...

Those adapters look great! I was looking closesly at the tcase adapter image an the HF2A side looks like it´s been flipped 180 degrees, as if it had been mirrored compared to the cad image: Maybe It´s me or the image has been inverted...

My idea is to install a sim racing paddle set directly on the steering wheel. I have an OMP style steering wheel and it is pretty easy to drill a couple of holes to install a paddle shifter set like the one below: There are many options available for around 100-150 eur, but I might as well...

I´d rather not modify the shifter plate, it really looks like its a mess to do so... The manual shifting is quite simple to implement actualy. The turbolamik TCU has a couple pins specifically built for paddle shifters, wich are just two momentary switches with a common sensor ground: There...
