How's the wiring look? Is it a straight forward thing?

Looks like your on top of things.

Does the rear subframe fit up ok?

[Sam-C30-AWD]

Everything is a direct fit no modification needed just take parts off and put AWD parts on !!

I am the first individual person to do this swap and its the only one in the Uk ( road car )

[Dangerous Dave]

Great project!

Must be nice to have the tools/space to be able to do it :D

One of my goals it to have a workshop and a lift :)

[Doingitsideways]

Looks an awesome project there.

Always thought a properly set up C30 AWD would be an awesome tool to wipe the smile off the Focus ST/RS boys' faces :lol:

[Sam-C30-AWD]

That's what I'm aiming for is to be able to get more grip, lol

It's got a shark stage 3 tune for k04 standard turbo

Makes 310hp And 510nm which I'm hoping will be good once the AWD is working

[Sam-C30-AWD]

I also got a spare T5 engine with my donor car which is being Stripped cleaned Ect

Hopefully build it stronger and go k24 hybrid

The spare head is being ported and polished which should be good with both manifolds !!

How did this project go? I just bought a 6spd AWD V50 to convert my Automatic C30! Teardown should begin tonight.

[Liggett]

Love this project c30. Love to see a video when it's finished. Do you think this would work on a v70 2009 2.5t

Hello, i dont own a volvo but i have just done the exact same conversion on a focus st using the same parts as both the c30 v50 and mk2 focus are all identical underneath. i found your thread very useful and im just wondering if you managed to finish yours, if not let me know have any issues as iv managed to get it all working.https://previews.dropbox.com/p/thumb/AAZbx-9A280JWJ27Jbhe_dUojS9eOLavQNtuko0ZWGUVUSl20a1CHwFE PvY6_BvcEZzge9uR8ycvymgIquRf6rh1MyDNueV74KsJQw8E2c TVa8I-sWSk5oMaPT1ygOPvX5JdI38vAoQurZmHNJunufEfxecL25J9pt 1FCyjqDDWhVJUUJJW2JFQo-HtkbqTRtfskiGgX28XytiiMPq-2cGGPWVDM8OPLqjcc4oYVhbhFoxefEYl4BOcHen1neQrjak8ah nFWm9LA_NQ--2EPDOzXvBN_M4LgTf7mF8AjM0BFVDNBIVGeYNofDnvi4bc2p1M 6MEzX8Cf3OtVfeyHD7dxer81CWh59OG5LzltCjAXbXSf_8sTbQ Po-YN3J-K-nHBwrMvOK8l6LErywKpjw3AHWy0QsJuLIWz3O_U2iK6Nh_5PJZ mdhp0P6kO3EyfNhp57RWE4uwxsCS3-Xdj6v8vxV0YPj7yHGtygv5eiSL_Zs-GcZL--umXg5TwvACEPLocXIuJEAj0GWe_B8Gq-uWB2TjNIlMDr6YvMeEkN8SCKBtWDU9DyqmIsgCtRqRGC-2vgoeUpQGnh2lqEqLBzYVcpZO7Bey-JC5YaMNraIO_q1f2RekfDBRKhc6KX8ykSANHVCWT22_QwSB9QC 1ECN4oKlHtx69kT04kkN7tCAsqFpgwPnDYwjwCKU5w66zr3nnx W_IXc6U2Afl0DWo-pXej4E3c6uVJDbTnSlnElUWClCGVEOuS13F365Ogihfx2IX4hc 4zDB_8xjcx5GKGdenvlUn-ZStlXBpUtlqhKAyfZKGsDm4W-GHoOqxAo0UUMYLQAoFWp7TTD2ja7S7Pw5LHVTYUG_vAKtc8VgA CPRCRUjxK78Oq0eputOWQPenDPYRYxrpX7SrhYp762Ak2E9c5l PCg24Q25rIL0tOOWTtEqz5egd-koJf2hAklP8drRxKVxStOd3dEDpVCIJQk3k6W8S8rdtKJVpnV--6zBUtvmsVB61suTFhMaz0NXG5iBHrgdZS9HcZrVM9bN4UEl8qd T9EF0ccR5kxSKKFVihpgkbRS0vgLlhV82wuWbHo88BuzxCiK8g FOZvU3YkKxyDBHgjEzWh-R4a378mpiDXUDvJzGMurBX0_SUl8KbDzCMI0L-Dewst4XUGA8PZzpGhI4eZ5wtNn_j1MNLBK2xHhJAxELKVslBPv GMas--Kinsg8V3N9omjGKLYMyhq8_Etbxy2kbp4yJJPN6IcDc0f9469a fiMnXUIKJRbVN7ciGZsXwyAElzZ6xeU9RiVqZoN1ysSckG_0X7 KE8ZpFCqXhth9wvzJE1TTrIs7nBDTrwD6_oVKQrV9vGphqB9t5 h0xpGTZ4WajjpbEIhVY6K9PrfspTQ/p.jpeg?size=2048x1536&size_mode=3
