Hey all, I have a 1984 4000s quattro that is going to
return to daily use soon. I took it to my mechanic for
a checkup and recieved some expensive news.
I knew the car wasn't flawless, but i had no idea
repairs were so steep on this car. I don't mind paying
for the repairs as i plan on owning this thing
forever. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on
UPGRADES that don't cost much more than replacing the
factory parts. I'd like to possibly go to 4 by 100mm
hubs from a quantum sycro so I can use commonly
available wheels. anyone tried this?  My 4000 needs
all the brakes replaced, brake lines, rear wheel
bearings...(was gonna do the fronts too for the 4 by
100mm conversion)   The heater core also need to be
replaced.  keeping budget and parts availability in
mind, what would you guy suggest in this situation?  
Thanks in advance.

Jeremy
