As per Scrawn's post, Chinny had a good result using a Mazda dizzy cap and rotor.

Just make sure you have the loom with the engine. Have you got a copy of the GTi FSM?

Yep, you can do that. I'd highly recommend a surge tank with a 2nd pump though.

grimreaper wrote:

Yes

Custom. Get some Sierra extractors and a GTi flange. Cut the flange off the Sierra extractors and have them welded to the GTi flange. Fatzook on this forum should be able to hook you up with a GTi flange.

Stock Sierra mounts will fit.

As Scrawn said read Chinny's build.

i would say suzukiinfo.com but it's down at the moment. Redlinegti forums are you next best bet, you could also try teamswift.net.

you have to use an angle drive on a mk1 motor because the mazda dizzy cap won't fit the mk1 dizzy

it would have to be a big love tap
when using a mazda dizzy cap on a mk3 motor you have to take the motor out to get the dizzy cap off because there is only a couple mm clearance
you'd need to cut a hole rather than massage it with a hammer but thats way too dodgy angle drive is the best way to go

at least using the g13b for a conversion you won't need an adaptor kit like you would for a g16 the angle drive is the only major expense other than the motor

it shouldn't cost that much as long as you have some sierra extractors and the gti exhaust flange
it would be piss easy to do yourself if you can weld

to be honest i can't even remember what a stock sierra manifold looks like
if you were gonna stuff around changing flanges you'd get a set of extractors any exhaust place should be able to weld the flange on
