Vts conversion few questions

[sammy90]

Hi im having a few problems with the vtr atm and im thinking of just doing the conversion. Does anyone no how much it would roughly cost for the whole conversion and what parts i will need to buy and what i can use of mine

[Tontsy]

i think the question you are meaning to ask is
"where is the search button"

its a common thing to do! so has been convered more than enough times to get the idea!

[LaurenceVTR]

can cost anything from £400 to £1000 mine cost like £900

[Sparco_Tom]

i done mine for £80 :y: usual price including engine would be £6-800 if somebody else was doing the work. Can easily creep over £1000 though

[sergcab]

i paid 350 for an engine with abssalutly everything needed! but since i didn't do my homework i missed a couple of things out so it added another 150 on top! plus try and change cam belt water pump and that so another 100! and the lil things like oil lets say 40 50! then if u getting some 1 to do it usually is 250! unless you do it yourself! like most people do to save time!

so set your self a budget between 700-900 that should be enough

[toms_vtr]

mine cost 700 and still dosent run 100%

[leighk18]

for the prices you can get a vts for these days is it worth it i payed under 900 for mine its got 110k but full history etc and tbh had it a few months now and not had a single problem with it

[sammy90]

I've just got everything for £400 even the rad, fan interior loom clocks and he unlocked the ecu before taking it out. Just ordered a clutch and cambelt kit oh and the throttle cable. How should I do the fuel return?

[Sparco_Tom]

My fuel return guide should explain all

[sergcab]

EDIT: never mind i just noticed on your diagram :D!

[Sparco_Tom]

yer i could do it for you if you cant

[sergcab]

alright mate ill let you know how it goes then! i dont need a vts fuel tank do i?

[Sparco_Tom]

[sergcab]

[sammy90]

I'm just goin to run the return myself. Is there any other tips to fitting the engine?

[sammy90]

Will there be anything else I need to change?

[gazthewolf]

a plug for the coil pack !!! if you dont have the vts loom

[Sparco_Tom]

a plug for the coil pack !!! if you dont have the vts loom

well if he doesnt have the vts loom there will be cutting and chopping of almost all the plugs.

[sammy90]

I have the engine loom and I've noticed that the vts had a kepad immobiliser will it still be ok on my interior loom? The boy said before he took the engine out he started it the unpluged the transponder and keypad
