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?
Post 813068 by Sam-C30-AWD on 2017-07-22 16:21:16
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 )

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 :)

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:
Post 813106 by Sam-C30-AWD on 2017-07-24 22:11:59
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
Post 813107 by Sam-C30-AWD on 2017-07-24 22:15:07
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.

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.
