Tdi conversion parts
MTyrrell:
I have been offered a 200tdi from a disco.
It's still in the car at the moment and I have got the first pick of parts from it, what else should I get for a 110 tdi conversion?
So far got rad, intercooler as well as the engine ant the ancillaries.

You are going to have to alter the down pipe or turbo.
Have a a word with V8Redline (Mikee) and he'll know what to do!
Also you need to move the mounts I think. I'll try and find some of the old threads for you :wink:
stefan:
You can get a custom made downpipe from Steve Parkers, try and get the glow plug relay and wiring, you will need the high pressure steering box to pump hose, the intercooler cos it's easier to fit once the low pressure PAS hose is moved to fit, apart from that most bits are either Defender or custom made, don't bother with the oil cooler hoses, they are too short!
I'm still in the process of fitting my disco tdi to my 90, waiting for parts on back order :-(

if its a diesel 110 you are converting then the wire will already fit,on my tdi i remade the fuel pipes to & from the pump using the origanal conectors but with rubber fuel hose,
for the pas got a hydrolic hose made up for the pressure side & had to purchase the corecct fitings for the box-hose (small adapter inbetween)
dont bother with the oil cooler hoses as they are 2 short & also really expensive if you can get them,i used to blanking plugs i aquired from a heating engineer & screwed them in the hole,
exhaust-now the fun starts :lol: you can either make your own down pipe & work your way back,if your gonna do that i found heating the turbo manifold with the oxy bottles till its cherry makes the weld less likely to crap when you mig it,if not buy the down pipe from steve parker
if i can think of anything else ill post back
stefan:
Here's the ready made downpipe from Steve Parkers, heat bandaged up before fitting, and a picture of the bend which then sleeves straight on to the original pipe. Pic of the re-used fuel pipes like V8_redline7500 suggests. I have loads more pics too if anything specific is required.
