lol im sorry guys the wagon is fcked everywhere, interior, outside needs rust fixed, needs engine rebuilt, needs an auto elec coz all wires are all in **** condition,wayy too much money needs to be spent on it, http://s987.photobucket.com/albums/a...IUZTEK/REDF18/ (http://s987.photobucket.com/albums/ae355/IVIUZTEK/REDF18/)
im mayb putting in the diff and brakes tommorow or saturday, and im gonna rebuild everything needed to convert my n/a to turbo but i need to look it up because i dont know whats needed (not just everything to convert but for everything to not blow up lol)
also take off -
1" bore master cylinder + brake booster
front calipers (and discs)
turbo dash badge
turbo dash cluster (if you want to keep the OG speedo and reading on the red one that is doable. start stripping down the cluster and you will see how it all fits together. while doing that theres a little plastic cog on the side of the speedo. check it. this is what breaks and gets hairline cracks stopping speedo's from working on vl's)
also kee the diff tag off of the diff (if it is LSD. if you don't want the diff tag send it my way so i can pretend mine came with LSD)
apart from that i would pull the entire engine out and put it on an engine stand in your shed. (should be able to get one new under $100) it would be money better spent rebuilding the standard a8 block (wagon) than slowly swapping everuything onto the a6 and blowing it.
make sure you get the ECU and the tranny comp and the carbon canister. the wiring loom is different but TBH it is only the knock sensor so you don't reall have to worry about it. i'd then strip it down to a rolling shell and slowly sell parts. (or sell the car minus the bits listed.)

in fact, you might be better off to sell the wagon complete and running and spend the cash on parts... there will also be a hell of a lot less hassle involved. in fact that is what i would recommend.
thanks again SIroller, im stripping the car keeping everything except for the actuall shell and selling it for scrap metal, im gonna rebuild the engine and put it in the sedan but not atm, for now im just swapping brakes to disks and swapping difs
