Title: Compatibility questions Post by: MattNoVAT on June 25, 2010, 11:18:45 AM Will an HPE fuel tank fit a Coupe?
Will rear anti-roll bar from HPE fit a Coupe? Are X/19 and Beta rear brakes the identical? Am looking at buying a rear brake seal kit. My car passed its MOT yesterday but my MOT man advised that there is a very slight weep starting on one of the rear brake calipers - so I want to get the replacement seal kit for them and do both. Can only find one pair on fleabay and it just states X/19 / Lancia rear brake seal kit.

Berlina / HPE tanks are a different part number to Coupe / Spider ones so that would have to be suck it and see. The calipers at the back are very similar but not identical - Eurosport might be able to tell you if the pistons and seals are the same.

This can be got round by cutting the filler pipe and joining appropriately with large bore flexy pipe.

The fuel tanks seems like nothing that cannot be overcome :-) Title: Re: Compatibility questions Post by: rossocorsa on June 26, 2010, 09:05:01 AM that brake kit will be X1/9 and x1/20 so montecarlo not a proper beta some Renaults use the same basic piston layout as the beta on the rear but which ones I'm not sure.

Anyway - purchased them so should be here next week some time. |
