auszookers.com :: View topic - GTi motor in a Sierra

Hi i'm about to undertake this conversion and would love some advice from people that have done it before. I have a 89 jx Sierra and a 98 Gti G13b motor + ecu + wiring loom + coil + fuel pump. I've done a some reading on the net and reckon i'll give this a shot.

My main concern is doing the wiring. If anyone has done it or knows someone who does i'd would be keen to hear opinions and refferals

What condition is your wiring loom in? That's probably the biggest factor. Get yourself a GTi wiring diagram and you'll be good to go.

How are you going about getting clearance of the distributor and firewall BTW?

hitting the fire wall with a big hammer :lol:

i think joeblow may have been toying around with angle drives... might be an idea to hit him up a little.

How are you going about getting clearance of the distributor and firewall BTW? Don't really know what i'm looking for but seems all there. I've seen the angle drive kit from suzisport. That looks to be my last option. Other ones i've seen are people cutting the firewall. What other options are there?

I saw somewhere people had turned some kind of dissy into a crank angle sensor and run 4 coils, that will get you round the firewall problem
