    Pic Request

    hi im building up a 1.6 gti and im currently on fitting new brake pipes but its been soo long since i removed the old ones that ive forgotten the routes the pipes take, so does anyone have clear pics of the engine bay? thanks
  2. Hi All, I've been trying to solve a clunk noise from the front end mainly when braking and coming on off power at lowish speed. I've read previous posts regarding 1.6 calipers causing these symptoms, so I fitted 1.9 calipers off my last pug. Little effect if any ! The wishbones are also off my old pug and have done very little mileage, just removed the drivers side which is a FAI item with O.E pug bushes in, no wear in bushes and ball joint is nice and tight. However the two M10 bolts don't look too clever larger M12 looks ok. I've got a Peugeot bush repair kit 3599 07 which is still bagged but it only has two bolts in it ? The front bush bolt is a set bolt (i.e. no shoulder, all thread) and the balljoint bolt isn't in the kit ? but contains six nyloc nuts. Not too happy about fitting set bolts, are these correct ? Current bolts have a shoulder, also what spec are the balljoint bolts ? Any other suggestions regarding clunking noise would be much appreciated. Cheers Ste
  3. Hi Can anyone tell me what are the correct jets to use in twin Weber 40 dcoe on a standard 1.6 Gti engine. I think the carbs are jetted for an upgraded engine and wont pull at low revs. Cheers
  4. Hi There, I'm in the process of acquiring a replacement gearbox for my 1.6 GTi Rally Car. After doing some research I have concluded that the ratios in a 1.9 GTi box should work pretty well, considering that I have a 4.9 CWP setup to put into the new box. The problem is I am struggling to source a decent donor 1.9 BE3 box, they seem to be rarer that rocking horse poop these days, so I have been doing quite a bit of research into suitable alternatives. I have found that the ratios in a 206 GTi 180 box are almost identical to those in a 1.9 GTi box, therefore I am wondering if this is a suitable alternative bearing in mind that, if my research is correct, the GTi 180 uses a BE4 box. I have a KAAZ diff, and the aforementioned 4.9 CWP, to go into my new box, however I am unsure of the compatibility of a BE4 box with my engine. Various threads on here talk about the differences between BE3 & BE4 boxes, however I've not found anyone using a BE4 box with the 1.6 GTi engine - is this because it can't be done? If anyone can give me some information as to whether this could be done I would greatly appreciate it. Many Thanks. Dave.
