2wd conversion
Discussion
Its not something I have read about or seen regards a Gallardo, but the boys across the pond do the same conversion on the 996 Turbo, depends on your intended use I guess as it turns the Turbo into a cheap GT2 / GT3 rival for virtually zero cost depending on how you do it.
Regards gallardo, I guess if you had an early car you may want to think about it if you did a lot of track days.

From memory on the Porsche is pretty similar you can even just remove front propshaft for zero cost.
next option was the above plus remove diff and driveshafts.
3rd option was all of the above and replace front wishbones / hubs with C2 items.
I seriously was going to do it on an early Turbo as I had a full set of GT3 suspension laying idle ..... ended up buying a 993 in the end.
The above was when a Turbo was 20k and I had just sold the GT3 for 45k to fund the house.
Not sure I would pull appart 60k worth of Gallardo unless it was a serious track day weapon that I used an awfull lot.
I seem to remember as well that it would unsurprisingly throw up fault codes and mess with the ABS but again the good old US had a resolve for that as well
