Re: Sigma turbo drain with power steering

About 10 years ago I parted ways with a Starion that had a 2.6L turbo with efi. It was running factory Starion power steering. The previous owner did the conversion and ran the pump and reservoir higher up which I presume would have allowed all of the space issues to be cleared up. Of the two GH's I...

Sigma turbo drain with power steering

Hi guys, how have people achieved fitting turbo drain/return lines to the sump when power steering is fitted?

Any suggestions or previous experiences?

Re: GH SE reclining seat.

At this stage it's not high on the list. The front seats are genuine turbo fabric but rear seat and door trims are SE versions.

Re: GH SE reclining seat.

Mounted up the mechanism today. Now I just need to make some clearance on the bolts for the top two keyhole mount holes. Then i have to chop out half of the parcel shelf to allow for the seat to actually recline.

Re: GE sigma gearknob removal

Circuit should have been circlip. All I had to do to get my knob off was Remove the circlip and pull my stick real hard and the knob and stick came off.

GE sigma gearknob removal

Any tricks? It seems the whole chrome shaft and knob just keep spinning.
The previous owner of my GH fitted a manual drive train from a GE. I want to run the GH SE centre console. And need to get the knob off to go through the gearstick boot.

Has anyone got pictures of the GH SE, rear seat reclining mounts and mechanism? I am doing a GH turbo replica (will start another thread soon).
