Parts needed for engine rebuild

Post

Back to the top
I'm looking to rebuild the engine in my GX, it's the original 1.5 JB engine.

I want to gather together as many of the parts I will need as possible before I start. Can those in the know help me please?

I know I will need some gaskets. If I get something like this set:

and then something like this one:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Audi-80-100-VW-Passat-Golf-Scirocco-1457-1588-1-5-1-6-HEAD-GASKET-SET-/331287026771?hash=item4d223edc53:g:GYkAAOSwGvhT6Mxw

Will that be all the gaskets I need?

I also thought I should get a clutch and change that while I'm at it.

I can't really get things like piston rings in advance in case I need to rebore and use oversize pistons, so until the engine is stripped down and measured those things will have to wait.

Is there anything else I will definitely need that I might as well get now before I get started?
