thankyou all for that but i would rather try and find a cortina one ist.

i was unaware that a sierra rack would fit?? enlighten me.

wanted PAS rack to fit mk5. ive just got hold of a sierra 2.0i to transplant the injected engine into my mk5.the sierra has power steering and id like to transplant the lot across and fit a cortina PAS rack.

wanted, full stainless exhaust system for mk5 1600/2000, i thought these would be availible off the shelf but i am having trouble sourcing one., chris

i 've just done this conversion on my mk5 1.6, to fit a type9 to a 1.6 you will need a 1.8 sierra flywheel and clutch which i believe is the same as 2.0 cortina. the original speedo cable can be made to fit by rerouting around the mastercylinder/brake servo. you can get different size drivegears depending on what axle ratio you are using. i modified the sierra crossmember to fit,you will need a 2.0 propshaft which are increasingly difficult to find with out knackered ujs which cannot be replaced (stake typejoint), i had one custom made with circlip type joints, expensive but worth it. the gearstick is too long and looks silly. i have shortened mine by cutting out the rubber bush bit and then fitted the standard cortina gearknob. you cant tell anythings been done.

took the front wings off my mk5 today, the plan being paint behind them an refit, as you would expect ,they came off in pieces, now i need a replacement pair, question; are mk4 different to mk5, if yes could mk4 one be made to fit a mk5????

sorry for late response, ive had a right weekend of it. the 1.8 sierra flywheel takes a 215mm clutch plate which im lead to believe is the same as 2.0 cortina, i am also told that the input spline on the 2.o 4speed box is the same as the type9 5speed but cannot confirm this ( any one out there know????) it may be a little lighter but that is no bad thing, i am going to get postage quote on tues 21st & will pm you

i have two 1.8 sierra pinto ones, any good? they take the 2.0 clutch, needed to fit a type9 so should be suitible. £20 + postage for one, im in somerset mind.

i may be interested in this, what ratio is it? will it fit a mk5?and finally is it resonably quiet?,, chris 07930158906

do you still have this? whats it worth? i dont know, give me an idea and i'll come an get it, chris 07930158906

if the 1.6 laser capri has a type9 gearbox then it has 23spline 2ltr spec front joint

is the rear axle sold now or not? can you call me asap if its still availible 07930158906, chris
