ive bought my self a 1.4 1999 saxo but im looking at a few vts engines and all of em are out of the mk2 does the vts from mk2's just straight fit in...
etc different loom/mounts or anything? and would it be best to keep the 1.4 box in or change to 1.6 as im not bothered about top speeds..

[AlexB]

the looms differ so youll need a mark 1 loom and single plug ecu aswell as a few sensors to match the earlier loom like

and get a vts box or something lower on the fd
the 1.4 box is about as long as a vtr box and useless on a vts motor its too long like

Yes they fit.

No it wont work.

[c20xejay]

so i need a mk1 vts...

basically mate unless you want to reloom the motor

jst buy a vts mate. less hassel and prob more cost effective if u sell ur 1.4 saxo aswel...torsion bars are thicker on the vts, get 2 airbags in the vts, oil gauge, discs all round ect...the airbags n oil gauge u cld live withowt but ud b wantn to upgrade to discs ol round with a vts engine under the bonnet, ul need the stoppin power lol, and ud want thicker torsion bars aswel....unless ur 17 and cant afford the group 14 insurance, get a vts mate ul love it...and even if u r 17 ud needa tel ur insurance abowt the engine or it wil b invalid so mayawel get a vts
