    205 XS springs

    Hi all, Hoping someone can help with a quick question: I'm looking to replace the front springs on my '89 XS. I have access to Service Box, but there seems to be a load of similar part numbers for front springs on there (5002 then 47, or 48 or 51... the list goes on). Does anyone know which is the correct set for the XS? Are the springs uprated over a boggo 1.1 for example, or are they shared with any other model? Thanks in advance for the help! Alex
  2. So I have got hold of a VTR engine black top I think people call it ? and want to run my xs tu3s head on it , but have found the tu3s block top engine mount and water housing and gearbox is not the same , I thought it was quite a simple bolt on job ? Or have I got the wrong block ?

    Paddle Clutch?

    Could someone please help me out with picking out a clutch for my 1360cc rallye (205 XS engine, MA box). I'm using the car for Motorsport (Targa/Endurance Rally) so was thinking a paddle clutch, don't really want to spend any more than £300ish? Is there any vendors to avoid or are they all practically the same? cheers ~matt
  5. does any body have any photos/diagrams of how to wire up a 106 gti engine into an xs? I've been delaying the engine swap until I moved house, now thats fallen through and my 1.4 engine is using water. So basically I need to get this done asap. getting the engine in and plumbed in shouldnt be too difficult its just the wiring that is very daunting! Im not very good with electrics and i've never had a car that is injection, so thats new to me too! typical that my MOT runs out next week as well. Im very much trying to avoid this turning into a 300year project that never gets finished, so I dont want to get stuck in the middle with no transport! any help much appreciated!
