XU10J4RS engine loom attaching to the ZX plugs, all the RS coolant pipes, the RS long gear rod from the bottom of the stick to the subframe, the RS cat, RS radiator, RS air intake pipe from Airbox to throttle body, RS Battery/ECU box.

ECU will need to be unlocked as the ZX never used a transponder immobiliser.

Use the original sump (or cut the a/c pump brackets off the alloy RS sump) alternator bracket PAS pump and pas pipework, original air box.

Clutch is the same, just keep the 5 speed gearbox.


Pretty damn easy conversion tbh :D

exhaust wise the centre and rear box is the same as used on the RS enghined ZX's, phase 1 Xsara will fit, Phase 2 will fit with an extension of the centre pipe.
