Help: Engine Conversion

Guest
i have 94' Ibiza mk2 1.3L Carb and i want to swap the 1.8L 16v engine (engine code ADL )so i need to know which parts i'm gonna need to change it ? :think:

and please don't tell me to buy Cupra or GTI cuz its impossible to find one in Egypt... :cry: so my only option to swap an engine ( and its cheaper here in Egypt to do the conversion than buying Cupra )

and i would like to change the bumpers, headlights and grill to make it look like the mk2 facelift... so do i need to change the fenders too ? :confused:

i'm sorry if i ask alot of qts. :redface:

for the facelift you will need

bonnet
wings or fenders
slam panel
front bumper
lights

aaah my bad- not reading posts properly!

youd only need the list i posted if you wanted to upgrade to MK3 style

lol :D i was like WHAT:blink: thanx anyway mate

if you mean from the later mk2 colour coded bumpers, you wont need bonnet or slam panel...

thanx...

but no one know which parts i'm going to need to change when i swap the new engine ? :confused:

:

Ecu (and keys for immobiliser)
Wiring
Drive Shafts
Gearbox
Radiator
Brakes (unless you like it scary)
Engine mounts

Best policy is get a whole car or as much of one as you can with the engine in, that way you'll have everything.

thanx mate :) yea i'm thinking to get the front half of doner car and use it so i can take anything i need from it

can i use the 2.0L 16v (ABF) Cooling system instead of the 1.8L 16v (ADL) ? because here in Egypt its alot hotter than Europe or USA and i'm gonna need better cooling system
