\"AWD<\/a><\/p>\n

Darkside Developments<\/a> and their AWD Volkswagen Caddy visited Donington Park<\/a> to prep for an upcoming trip to N\u00fcrburgring for an “unofficial” lap record. The panel van is powered by a turbocharged 2.0 L TDI (CUAA) inline-four capable of 356 hp (261 kW) and 470 lb-ft (637 Nm) of torque. Slide Motorsports<\/a> converted the van to AWD using a seven-speed DSG (NZS) transmission with a Wavetrac limited-slip differential and 2015 Tiguan rear differential. The van’s suspension uses KW Clubsport Golf coilovers, Audi TT control arms and hubs, and Audi A3 Quattro rear subframe. The brakes were upgraded with Brembo six-piston calipers with 380 mm rotors in front and Golf R32 calipers with 310 mm rotors in back. You can view the van’s full specs on the project page<\/a>. Watch DannyDC2<\/a> drive the van around Donington Park. <\/p>\n
