205 GTI Rebuild

[cam85]

So would an xu10j4rs be ok for surge on a racetrack, fitted to a Citroen Xsara vts with Yokohama ad08r

Yes.

On your Si, where did you get the expansion tank from?

 

[cam85]

Matt. Greetings, hope ur well.

That looks like a bakerbm tank. A local fab shop near you should be able to make one for similar money fwiw.

I was very happy, very clean, no cracks, resprayed and ready for the rebuild.

Nice. A pleasure to work with a clean body free of all the layers of crap accumulated over the years and all the thigns that get in the way like doors and seats and such.

What is the car lurking in the background?

 

[chat échaudé]

I think it is a 46 Ford Ute and the other is a Type A Citroen.

Very clean body indeed! I'll be taking note as hopefully I'll be doing a complete strip of my 205 in the coming year.

Looking good but struggling with engine fit......

Every thing else is square but the inlet manifold sits too far forward!

 

[PeterT]

Cut 45mm out of the runners or use a GTi6 manifold.

 

[PeterT]

Another shortened manifold. You can see the join easier in this one.

Sorry I forgot to add the photo (bit wet here at the moment!)

 

[chat échaudé]

Thanks PeterT, we were at that point (Pug1off must use the GTi6 manifold)

Another shortened manifold. You can see the join easier in this one.

Does the GTi6 mate up neatly to the XU9J4, or will I need an adapter?
