robah Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) Has anyone got any off these items or info on obtaining them. 1. 20XE later type (if it makes any difference?) upper Alternator belt adjustment arm/bracket, the item the upper bolt from the alternator fits in to adjust the belt. I have one but can't find it. Also lower front bush for bottom bolt please. 2. Hand brake cable to suit the disc conversion as the standard Manta type is approx 6-8" too short. my rear calipers are frod serria type and mounted at the rear of the hub. 3. Correct number for the clutch cable to suit the 5 speed getrang gearbox, just noticed (after purchasing a few months ago) I have been supplied the wrong one from an ebay seller, I need to send it back with the correct info. Is this the correct type http://www.ebay.co.u...=item3378537e12 ? 4.Lower Bellhousing plate to fit the 1.8 Manta gearbox, just realised mine is a 2.0L CIH which is not suitable Thanks for looking and I can pay by PayPal and I will be at Billing this year.

opelmantagsi Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 double rose jointed adjuster is the go for the alternator, did this on mine. Mk4 Golf GTi rear handbrake cable to Manta centre cable triangle if your using girling 38 calipers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Update Rose joint adjuster, great idea and will look in to doing it that way Hand brake cable requires the rectangle hook type to fit on the mechanisim Rob Edited July 9, 2012 by robah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opelmantagsi Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 because I used a 125 amp alternator with side drafts I had to fit the alternator lowering bracket, sourced from either eurocarb or QED I think? the 125amp alternator had a bigger lower bolt mount and the offset of the alternator lower mount was not quite right so got delrin inserts made, then filled down the outer face until the pullies lined up big earth cable off the top mount back onto a tapping on the block previously used by the plastic cooling manifold pipe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again in advance for any info. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
