Please don't yell at me, but i have a serious craving for more power out of the Sierra...
I know alllllllll about the usual GTI conversions, but as hose engines are hard to come by in Perth I was wondering if any of these would work?

iv'e seen heaps of GTI motors and cars around, nice and easy to do, same as the 1.6 jobs, id stick to that as anything else is just to much f*cking around in my opinion.

I know the CA18de has been done on one(maybe 2/3) zooks on this site. To be honest the fit is like putting a condom on a elephant so i wouldnt want to imagine the CA20 8O . Unless of course they're the same size??? I dont know.

But if your just after the most worthwhile conversion its either the g16a/b or the GTI conversion as you've said. Yes they've both been done more times than you can poke a stick at, but thats just because there easy enough conversions to do.

Of course this is all my own opinion. And to tell you the truth i always like seeing people doing different things, as it shows massive amounts of time, skill and most importantly money.

I would really want to do the GTi/16B conversion but they are unbelievably hard to come by near me ;(
I don't mind trying an unusual conversion, once things settle down at work I'll have alot of time, incredible amount of knowledge and skill (ONLY DUE TO THE 8 HD MECHANICS AT WORK) and money can be subsidized for beer

I had to import my g16b from victoria. Just had to add $200 to the final bill for freight. Would be cheaper for you. Finding one up here is impossible.

Ohhh Alien, don't tempt me! But if you find an engine, I could be persuaded :P

And Sogone! where did you buy it from? Privately or from a shop?

NO WAY! Suzistore is asking like $2,500 for a G16B plus Adapter kit :/

And I can do nearly all of it, if not everything

mate if u cant find a gti or a 1.6 donk then i think you underestimate the scope/commitment of the swaps, they are readily available u need to look harder.
installed the 2 shops in perth charge 5 - 7.5 k for a 1.6 drive in drive out.

DO IT, YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO. Probably wouldnt fit the engine bay though. So i say rear mount it.

Why bother with the 1.5 if your going to all that effort? Maze well do a m18a conversion...only difference between the 2 is the m18a has more power :wink:
