I recently bought an GTI engine /5 speed trans, loom etc to do a conversion on my Sierra, what clutch is everyone using as I want to replace it before fitting, is it a standard Sierra 5 speed clutch or a combination of Sierra and GTI,Also what airbox set up, it has a pod filter but I'm not keen on using that, it also needs a new dist cap, I read somewhere that a Barina one is used, does anyone have a part no, the other problem is a broken vacuum valve on the inlet manifold (see pic ) any idea what it is called so I can organise another, first pic is the zook it will be getting fitted to.

There should be two black rubber vacuum lines going to this valve, do you have the other one?

Dizzy cap and rotor usually used is Mazda 323: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=55129

Thanks for the help 303, yes the other line is there, thanks for the link on the cap/rotor.

Well purchased - a lot of work has gone into that car.
Very good start on getting a beasty back on the road.
Good luck with it.

Thanks ZUZUKI, the car is a bit different than it looks in the pic (the pic is from 10 years ago) can't wait to get it done but it's going to take awhile.

I did my full conversion pretty much from this link.
