As title, I'm breaking my mk2 turbo conversion to build a Mk1.5 instead. Obviously I'm keeping the rear clip and associated gubbins, but are there any other parts that are worth keeping hold of to swap over?

I know the hubs are of no use to me, I sold my mk2 bc coilovers and bought a set for the mk1. Are the ARB of any use, I had 19mm turbo ones front and rear with polybushes. Do I need to change the throttle cable over, or is the mk2 one compatible at all as my mk1 cable is a bit stiff.

Any other bits you can think might be worth keeping?

How much do you want for the Mk2 servo pipe from the engine bay?

Haha, I didn't do this to drum up sales Chris. Surely I should be paid up for that as well.....

Which part of it?, I've never really paid that pipework much attention. If it's small/easy to post then its yours for postage monies

It's the pipe that starts under the right hand hinge, it goes over the turret and stops where the end of the plenum sits. It has a one way valve on it.

Pm me how much and I will sort you out some monies.

Incidentally it might be worth posting a thread under 'breaking' as I'm sure others will be interested in goodies, maybe help offset your build costs.

My car started out as a UK n/a, I don't know if it has the one way valve fitted to it. I'll get a picture of it and perhaps someone will be able to shed some light

Its the pipe in the corner of the engine bay, it will probably be there whatever the car is / was. I am after the pipe (pictured) from the hinge all the way to where it stops in the engine bay if you have it.
