Hi, for a number of months I've been working on getting a 92k GTI6 engine in my CTI. First of all I#d like to thank Dan, Stefan, Spiky, Miles and all the other who have help answer my stupid questions over the past months Ill include a parts list as a lot of time was spent sourcing parts or asking others. appologiees if its already been covered in advanced. So history - One of Steve@Cornwalls CTI that I picked up in south Cornwall on a one way train ride back in 2007. it had a 1.9 engine but I fitted a 1.6 fly wheel and gearbox over the years. The GTI6 engine was purchased form a forum member and sat on a pallett for 18 months!! it was from a 1998 GTI6 and had done 92k. I also had a s16 engine as almost went that route but a local Taunton chap started a conversion so I helped him out and it got me in the mood to start mine!! Parts / Shopping list (Ill keep editing this when I find them) XU10J4RS engine engine loom (converted by Spiky or Miles?) Manifold reangled GTI6 Lamba and ideally a front pipe before the cat. Gear box BE3 (1.6 was my choice) Baker thermostatic converter Cambelt kit including tensioners Mi16 clutch kit Baker BM hose kit (optional) 306 PAS pipe work if PAS is needed Universal throttle cable Speedo reader on gearbox - Neat auto parts on e-bay solid lower engine mount Inlet gasket 0349g1 Manifold badge 156621 Exhaust gasket 0349f4 Exhaust fixing kit 179875 oil vapor hose 1192l6 and 6981h7 for the clip (on cam covers)oil filter adaptor / thread 110354 Threadlock sump plug washers engine paint oil resistant gasket sealler 8mm and 10mm fuel hose 76mm silcon hose for induction filter (Mr silicon from e-bay items 170703882338 and 170731923084) TBC
