1.9 conversion
#1
Putting a 1.9 in my 309

Is there any pipes that need changing or anything

Basically do I need anything off the donor car or do I need just the engine?

I would grab all the pipes you can, then you can cut n shut n join and make what you need. Chuck the rest when its in.

Good plan by the way!
Wishes for more power...

Matrix pipes shouldn't be that different really, surely all the 1.8 stuff can just bolt to the 1.9 block. Oil heat exchanger will need plumbing in unless you don't use it and use an oil cooler.

Also use the 18 gearbox saves buggering about with driveshaft issues. Either that or use the 1.9 box and put the 1.8 diff in it

Not really just swap all the sensors over so you can use the original loom, more than likely need the 309 downpipe, and thats it really its pretty simple tbh its just the little niggly jobs that take for ever
