slider2 0 Posted February 9, 2006 basically im in a position where i can 'raid' a written off 206 gti for parts if i so desire, but my question is are there any bits that would be of use to me? i thought about the brakes but my car has the 1.6 set up so i dont think that would work? apart from doing a tu engine transplant (which i dont want to), can i use anything else? cheers, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
205007 12 Posted February 9, 2006 seats would be nice? alloys fit with 5mm spacers on the back but you need longer bolts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony 1,002 Posted February 10, 2006 Brakes would work if you moved over to base model hubs (these allow you to retain your 1.6 driveshafts), but as you've correctly identified, won't work with 1.6 hubs as the disk offset is wrong. If you can get the parts cheap/free then it might be worth trying to sell on the 206 GTi specific parts (suspension, interior, bodykit etc) to owners of lower spec 206's or eBay it and make yourself a few quid? 206 GTi engine is an EW series (EW10J4 IIRC) not TU btw.

Anthony 1,002 Posted February 10, 2006 mmmmm 206 GTI engine..........180BHP...........nice Or not. I'm assuming this is a boggo 206 GTi, and thus you're talking a rather more girly 138hp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slider2 0 Posted February 10, 2006 yep, its the 138 bhp version.. although i will have to cough up some cash for any parts i want it wont be too much, cheers for correcting me on the engine code anthony, you learn something new everyday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrSeuss 0 Posted February 10, 2006 The rear callipers are 1.9 items aren't they? So worth having if you upgrade to a 1.9 beam. They'll have free bleed nipples. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
