Its Russia which is what I thought but they sound legit and dont think I will have to pay customs as parts are under ?18 ?  go to www.ladaparts.ru    I suspect the centre mounts advertised on ebay for ?39.95p probably originate from here anyway ?

There is/was a Lada specialist up here near me. I wonder if he stocks these parts?

Guys ,

Let's keep this Lada thread going , maybe we will build a database of sorts which Lada parts can be used as replacements for our Fiats.

Problem is the Lada was a patent built Fiat 124 and Lada used there own engine and box so you are very limited for 131 but a lot better off if you own a 124 I would guess

actually, engine and gearbox are a compilation of several fiat engines and gearboxes. for instance, bellhousing for TC engine from fiat 125 will bolt straight on to a lada gearbox, which is very simmilar (same?) as fiat polish 125 gearbox, and than straight onto a fiat's donut. also, U joints are the same.

it's a diference between lower front suspension arm for fiat 124 sedan and spider. if you took the suspension arm from 124 sedan, you'd have the same problem.

rear suspension of lada is 90% same as on 131. suspension arms and bushings from lada can be used on 131.
rear coil springs for lada are the same lenght and diameter as for 131, but are available in diferent load capacities, therefore giving a choice of three diferent stiffnes/height combo's. one could also take a hard spring for lada and shorten it by a coil or two and get a hard stiff 131 rear end. bog standard rear spring for lada is the same load capacity as for 131.

engine mounts on lada and 131 are the same. gearbox mount for lada can be fitted to a 131/132 gearbox with 5 minutes modifying job.

oil filters are the same.

rubber seal surrounding the doors and the boot (sorry guys, don't know the name of the part) is the same on 131 and on lada.

rear window winders on 4dr 131 are the same as on lada.

want me to go on?

Thanks for your nice words Eugene,
But why you are talking about Lada parts and modifiying them to fit 131s.
I have almost every part and cheap prices.No need modifying,high quality parts.etc...
Djape,you are talking about making the engine mounts,window rubbers,etc,I have these parts at the stock.
