Nazza27 35 Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Put the old wheels on the ibiza and rolled it out the garage. Have got more pictures but they are on my old phone, will get them up soon.

The nearside wheel is facing forward while the offside wheel is about 1.5 turns around. Does anyone know how to sort out toe? Or any other ways of sorting out the steering issues? Does anyone also have any pictures of the handbrake cables? As i am using the VR6 rear calipers and will need new handbrake cables (old car was drums) Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

c00k 435 Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 It's an OBD2 engine mate, can tell by the throttle body, and it only has single upper chain. Definitely OBD2. Toe in toe out is adjusted on the tie bars and track rod ends, best get it set up professionally unless you know what you are doing. Otherwise tyres will only be last a few weeks to a month . Look good buddy, keep it up man. Link to post Share on other sites

c00k 435 Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 (edited) Adjust the track rod end outwards, so it brings the back of the wheel out more. Edited September 22, 2015 by c00k Nazza27 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Nazza27 35 Posted September 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Sorted it out today. Thanks for the advice. wasnt as hard as i thought it would have been to be honest. Worst bit was getting the bolts freed off. Link to post Share on other sites
Nazza27 35 Posted September 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 After fitting the handbrake cables, I realised i seem to be missing one of the clips? Does anyone know what the part number maybe or if anyone has one? Ones this is done I believe I will be moving onto the wiring. Any help with this would be much appriciated as the wiring is what i am dreading the most. I believe it is a plug and play job, so no dash wiring is needing too be changed, and i have a new engine look to use as well. Link to post Share on other sites
Nazza27 35 Posted January 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Been busy recently. so not had time to update this as much as i would of liked. Managed to get the old wiring out of the Ibiza after a bit of trouble. I have also got an old engine loom out of a vr. I have managed to work out the fuse box connections for that. I am now in the process of trying to separate the lighting loom off the Ibiza loom. As that's the only bit of wiring i don't have. And oh my days it is a pain!! Hoping to get the wiring in by end of Feb and its onto the engine after that.... Link to post Share on other sites
Nazza27 35 Posted February 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Been busy recently with getting a new job and holidays. However, whenever I have had some free time I have been playing with the wiring. I started to stripe apart the light loom from the engine loom off the Ibiza wiring, however it was too entangled. So in the end I have ended up buying a light loom for the vr6, then cutting off the light connectors off both sets of loom, and re-soldering the Ibiza light connectors to the vr6 loom. Will get around to uploading some pictures soon. Link to post Share on other sites
Nazza27 35 Posted March 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Realised that i am missing part of the caliper for the handbrake cable. The clip that the green arrow is pointing too. So that has put a hold on it. does anyone know if they have a part number or if I can get one from somewhere? I have also found that the VR loom is shorter than my old Ibiza loom, So I need to cut through the bulkhead behind the fuse box and feed it through. So have cleaned it up and ordered a hole cutter/ cone cutter. I can either put the hole next to the brake server or next to the ECU. Will also need to find a rubber bung to put in the old hole and one for the new hole. Unsure where to get the bungs from. This is slow progress but getting there. haha.

Nazza27 35 Posted May 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Started to re feed the wires through the car. how ever i dont think i have been sold a complete loom. As i seem to be missing some of the connectors that go into the back of the fuse box. I am missing the following letters. B, T, V, W, X and some others i think. Its all i can remember for now.
