Description:
Polish group B Audi Sport Quattro S1 is almost ready. Not a replica, this thing is built from ground up by Koraszewski Auto Sport exactly the same way as Audi Sport built their rally cars 20 years ago.
So how do you exactly build a group B car? Read in comments. |

First, you get accurate blueprints from Audi. Then, you cut in half a 80 Quattro sedan and a normal Quattro coupe (this is why the windshield is angled differentely in the S1 than in the Coupe). You weld them together around a rollcage and stick on a front off a Sport Quattro. The original body panels were made out of kevlar, this has been replaced with carbon fibre. Carbon is lighter, but modern safety features make this car 60kg heavier than the originals. The 5-cylinder 2.5l engine is built using a diesel block, topped with a 20 valve DOHC head. Working inside are forged pistons, conecting rods and crankshaft. The engine has already been dynoed at 550hp at the crank. Finally, you need a wad of cash and need to know the right people, because you'll either be fabricating a lot of stuff from titanium or you will be emptying Audi Sport warehouses. The old, secret shelf at the very back will hold what you'll be looking for, like a unique air cooled right front half shaft or a steering box with 1.25 turns lock to lock. |

#4, No just one from what I can see. What you see is the separate housings for the exhaust side and the intake side. I think. |

#12, Good question. The same can be said about, say, E-Type Lightweights. To add to the confusion, you can get a standard E-Type converted or have a Lightweight built from ground up, using materials and techniques from the era. |
