Dont bother with the 6 speed. Its a nice thought but in reality its terrible on roundabouts and hard right turns. Even worse than a 306. The 205 is light and the extra grunt does not really warrant...

Nice Rich! Will be a nice car to do that to! Fast and schmick!

When are you doing that to yours? Thought you said yours was slow?

My flatmate has an SI with gti suspension. 14inch rims with good rubber and koni shocks. Handles brilliantly on the road! There's not much effort required to change it over. Most bits would be...

I think these are quite rare. Ive seen lots of interest for them in the UK and they dont seen to come up often. I have a friend looking at making some up. Not until after June though.

Cam

Yea, was wondering what that was. Are they known to be faulty? It's starting to run rich now too..

Aparently there different. I tried one this afternoon with no luck. Do these engines have an air flow meter similar to a gti?

After a set to fit my manifold form a GTi6 to a J4R motor

Get yourself a long neck 11mm socket. Its used to unbolt the "hockey" (?) style bolts that lock the inner cv joint/bearing in place. You need to make sure you undo them All the way without removing...

Many guys in the uk have used these parts without problem. We get ripped in this country for everything so don't think the worst cause it cheap. Otherwise spend a little more and still save on our...

Would like to get a working second hand unit to eliminate a problem.

If you have one, please get in touch.

Cam

Do these normally give trouble?

Would be awesome Adrian. I'll bring in anoth to replace it of you like. Otherwise let me know a price for it.

Haha! Yea. And I called you Rick!

CHeers for the Bumper Rich, got it yesterday. Will go nicely on the current car. The garage is a disaster. After getting rid of the Xsara its loaded with parts...

Yes. Fitting throttle bodies is more the way to go. Carbs are a step backwards.

To do it properly will cost the best part of 2000 Pounds. Otherwise, get a set of PeterTs stage 1 inlet cams and...

I have a lower engine mount fork form my 205 I need lengethened. If there is anyone interested in helping me out. Ill pay you for your time etc. Its a straight forward job, I just dont have a welder...

Hi there.

After much interest, I've decided to keep it. It's too good to let go. Good luck with your search and enjoy the gti!

Hey Rich,

Sorry mate Ive been flat out on my car and geting my shop on the go.

Ill try and pop over over the next few days. If its in the way let me know.

Probably a good time if you wanted...

OK. I get it. Re read the original post.

You will already be down there and everybody else will follow.

Why not organise a day for people to drive at wakefield and leave with you at 5am?

I...

Russ,

Nice idea. Thats a pretty long drive. At least 6 hours plus. Are you planning on driving at wakefield and driving home?

Cam

I take it rich. I'll come grab it this week.

Speak soon.

Ok Cool. Im excited now!

Ill give him a call monday and se what I can organise. Thanks a lot.

So will I need an oscilloscope then? Or just the dual channel ignitor?

Ive learnt lots in the thread, thanks to everyones input.

Ill definitely be asking kindly... Do you have any pull in that...

True. Its not something we can look at ourselves?

Only reason Im keen to use the Dual channel is that I dont have to have a mount made for the LS1 coils. Its seems it will be easier to sort the problem. And I like the sound of having a good sounding...

And Ill need and oscilloscope? Whatever they look like or do? Only info I can find is that they use them in hospitals? Which one will I need along with the dual channel ignitor?

Cam

Ok. Im struggling to find one to suit my application. Can you point me in the right direction?
