dsh85's VTS

[furioAL]

Was ruddy the one with the over inflated ego that wrote 'expert' on the masking tape :p

[Clone]

Very nice, done a great job on those wheels :y:

[Hopcraft]

lovely, like the newly sprayed. just really not keen on the tints tbh.

[liamk15]

no too keen on the the wheels that colour.

i agree with al it looked alot better silver.

[Payney]

IMO, silver on silver isn't the greatest ever, but didn't look to bad.

Although as said, prefer the colour you've had. ;)

[Adum]

I Love them wheels. i want some!

Car looks ace mate :y:

[dsh85]

Was ruddy the one with the over inflated ego that wrote 'expert' on the masking tape :p

lol that was my mate marking the wheel he masked, mine had 'novice' written on it

ill have to get some better pics up at somepoint as these are mostly quite dark. i agree they will be like marmite but theyve impressed me in the flesh and im this cars biggest critic tbh :homme:

[k2thecsaxo]

looks absolutly stunning mate,i prefer it with the darker rims looks the nuts and really good job mate,awesome sax you got :y:

[craig180]

Like that a lot! Nice work:y:

[leeroybrown]

Like that a lot! Nice work

AGREED

[thadogg]

Very nice mate, can't decide which I like best silver or dark! They both look mint though! :y:

[Skorpion]

Wheels looking superb mate! :y:

both colours looked good on the car!

Will have to have a closer look at it at trax to decide which colour i prefer!

[samcook]

looking really good mate !

[Gav]

worst car on sax-p i think :clapping: . well over rated :bored: . its not even that fast :homme: . vtr are quicker than it. :p

[Mark51]

looking good mate, PM me about the old rims.

[rushy_23]

They look great Danny, BUT!!! Im not sure yet, the car looked amazing at FCS,
the darker wheels make it look... erm, well I dunno. Just different!

Will have to see it in the flesh to decide!

[dsh85]

imo they look a lot better in real life, i guess we shall have to wait for trax ;)

mark there the same wheels lol

gav you have no taste golf boy

[Gav]

[dsh85]

[Mikey]

[Gav]

[rushy_23]

bring back the vts gav! or a 106 gti you know it makes sense they cant be beaten. not even by a ferrari

LOL thats so true :y:

[Gav]

you will see what im getting when it arrives. its a surprise.

[Tupps]

Prefered the rims before you sprayed them mate

[dsh85]

me too mate tbh, a few days of seeing them now and im really not keen on them!

still theres a month to go till trax, plenty of time to sort that out. no one can say i havent tried and tested methods :p

[furioAL]

Everyone always agrees with me in the end... :P they still look nice... just think the silver wheels worked better with your car.. looked a lot fresher.. :y:

Now sell them to me.. so i can spray them silver :p

[Skorpion]

Its like the splitter all over again!!

[jonesyFX]

looking good my son

its those little touches that can make or break a car, and your pulling them off so keep it up ;)

[dsh85]

lol the old splitter debate, thats going back coded but a less rushed attempt as i like the deepness it gives,

ive give it a right cleaning over last 2 days, machine polished with industrial
g10 and autoglym super resin. its shinging but the wheels are making it dull!!

just a little unsure on wether a simple silver paint such as bmw silver for example would work well enough, or will i have to cough up for hi power'd by pros... hmmm

[Skorpion]

Need to get it back to the picture you just sent me on msn mate! Clean look goes superb with this car! C/C splitter then your laughing!

[plimmer-xsi]

i think it looks awesome wiv the stndard fuel cap, no 16v badges and without the spouiler and the wheels just look phenominal

[Viper]

Here you go Danny :y:

[leeroybrown]

Looks very Smart and clean!!!!:P

[Dan]

They look good Dan, prefered them silver though

[Mikey]

they do look good.....just thought it stood out more with silver rims!

[Kelly]

I really like it Danny the wheels make the car look meaner. It has my vote :y:

[Karl]

Eeek! she looks mean.

I love it!! :D top motor Danny

[Luke]

I preferred it with them silver, I think it spoils the look now.

[Wayne]

looks very smart mate:y::P

[dsh85]

cheers viper!! your cameras ace!

the wheels dont look too bad actually in a few pictures, however i still think there too dark, been thinking along the lines of a lighter grey colour and removing the tints once and for all. maybe coding te headlights same as wheels

theres a few ideas bouncing around at the moment anyway lol

[Skorpion]

Here you go Danny :y:

Looks mint there mate. as said love the tints on yours. Wheels work wheel with them aswell!

[Hopcraft]

really nice pic viper ! yeah i like the rims, but a little lighter could work, yes. .

[dsh85]

Fresssshen up my friend!!

im sure youve heard that in the toilets on a saturday night before! well im taking the bog trolls advice
too much black on the car imo, thought id test an old method although this dosent mean its staying like this!!

in my opinion i like the whole look a lot better like this, but plenty of plans before trax although what direction to go im unsure off!

i think possibly i may just post up the new bits and bobs i will be getting over the coming weeks and then turn up to trax with whatever goes haha

[Mikey]

car is sexy

[Baz]

i say you keep all ideas under cover and tell me what they are :)

[Yates]

smart mate, look better on comp and phone pics

[Skorpion]

Loving the car as it looks now mate.

Be interesting to see what changes you make!

[dsh85]

i couldnt say what changes i will make yet it wont be anything major!! bodywork will always stay pretty subtle as it is now

engine work ahoy, interior ahoy, general restoration in weird areas to spotless condition ahoy.

stuff like that

[Yates]

i know all the plans

[Skorpion]

Danny tells me nothing! Sucks!

[Yates]

me and danny tell each other everything lol

[craig180]

Danny I loved the way your car looked last weekend. Seems kinda old skoolif you know what I mean?

I would personally leave it exactly as is but concentrate on tidying up the bits that seem to get neglected during car ownership. Concourse future classic ahoy???

[leeroybrown]

Tried telling him that Craig

Doesnt work lol

[Adum]

I want your wheels!!!

[Sean]

looks way better with the mk2 lights on son, the wheels look gash though so you should sell me them and continue with your plans. :)

[Payney]

I'd have to say the smoked looked better.... As the MK2s look out of place imo.

[reddysaxo]

stunnin car ya got there matey :y:

[Dan]

Think they would look better with all the tints removed.

[bloz]

Danny the car is looking nice, I was hoping mine would be back for TRAX as its been off road since Nurburg but still no luck with the ECU its gone back off to the specialist again because its over fueling now and drowning the engine.

[Karl]

prefer it with silver wheels dude :/

[jonesyFX]

get the smoked rears back on!

you know what i think, you should make the effort to clean it more often:P

[dsh85]

still think the wheels are too dark myself tbh, its just the thought of going for a light grey or back silver!

same with the tints in certain looks i think maybe they would be better without them but i think the car would be missing something without them. its just the fact the wheels have made the car look a whole darker

your a fussy bunch to please :p but honest opinions are wat i like to hear!

[Wayne]

looks really smart mate:y:

[rushy_23]

Well first off just get rid of the tints! They make some real nice cars look so wank imo!

I do agree Danny mate, wheels do seem a little dark, almost look black! (aka typical
chav meeting his buddies at DcMonalds)

Maybe a lighter shade might be spot on? But that means more money I guess,
so dont blame me if you get it done and dont like it lol.

[dsh85]

lol chav!!

ill have to be having words with my mate and try persuade him to get that spray gun back out! at least all the base equipments already bought just need the colour!

[Yates]

tints are shit

[dannyjay]

Lose the tints, and then see how you feel about the wheels!

If not, get some Dare X1s :P

[Skorpion]

Still say loose the tints mate and see how the car looks. Would go well once you got the leather inside aswell! :y:

Tints are cheaper than re-spraying wheels if you change your mind!

[dsh85]

paint costs £12.50 ;)

[dannyjay]

Brummies and there knock off prices...

[rushy_23]

Dares over Superlegs! Are you crazy!

[Skorpion]

paint costs £12.50 ;)

Well we cant all get stuff done for free!

You had any p/shops done yet of different colour silvers on the wheels?

[Baz]

i did prefer the Dare's tbh....

[betty02]

swap ypur tints we my standards lmao love ther car though!!

[dannyjay]

i did prefer the Dare's tbh....

I'm not alone. :P

[Davekelz]

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/02.jpg

C'mon Danny, you know what's right!

[Yates]

i told you not to post that dave!!!

[dsh85]

looks good there i must say, almost feel bad about making changes,

but a brother gets bored

[rushy_23]

Looks the nuts there, but Ive already told you that a zillion times.

[leeroybrown]

looks real good ;)

[Luke]

Prefer how it was mate, sorry.

[craig180]

Yellow wheels ftw:y:

[dsh85]

that no problem luke, a lot of people i think will but after a year and half of that theme theres no were really i can go from there onwards, if i had a vtr it would be the perfect excuse to get a vts and start again but i dont have that option.

so im gonna go along a whole new line and try some diffrent stuff. and change the look of the car

consider it a new start :p i think what i will do is post updates of parts etc but not actual pics till trax,

[Skorpion]

Hyper Silver wheels Danny. You know what you got to do!

[dsh85]

pictures thats all :A:

old legendary exhaust, how i shall miss the v6 sound

[jaybiss]

gti leather there too danny ;)

[Skorpion]

And no tints! Sure I knew that already!

[Yates]

i know everything......

nice headrests................

[Dan]

You changed the rear lights over again lol

[rushy_23]

IM confused! How come there are 3 front seats? Changing the interior. Much
better without the gangsta tints bud.

[jazzsingh51]

looking good mate :y: - think it looked better with silver supers but black looks just as good imo

[Wayne]

really like your saxo:y: looks mint:P

[Hopcraft]

agreed defo better without tints.

[Predator_R32]

looks 32.5 times better without tints :y:

[dsh85]

lol yous havent even seen proper pics ;)

plenty to do before trax dont kno if im going to get it done, dont be expecting mass changes however lol plenty of subtle tidying up things to do!!!

[oz_borne]

looks good and the wheels are definately a good change, when you've had it like it was for so long things need updating. Spelndid job too mate.

u know i use yours for inspiration, but i won't be doing much to mine!

:A:

[Yates]

danny felt pressure cos everyone was talkin bout how good oz' was at fcs. fact.

danny my garage is always open lol

[rushy_23]

looks 32.5 times better without tints :y:

Just what I was thinking

[kevvts]

looks loads better without tints and you didn't need a new exhaust pmsl

[Luke]

There is a GTi leather and normal VTS Interior there ;)

Look forward to seeing the changes at Trax bud.

[Yates]

i fuckin hate this bastard god damn shitty fuckin bollox french thing

that is all ;)

pics uploading

[dsh85]

French Car Show to Trax! the changes explained
ok ok, where to start!
going into fcs i had the sole idea in my head of selling up until that show changed my mind well and truely. as much as it was a nice car i was tired of the same look which im sure many of you can understand.anyways i decided that i would keep the car as i loved the driveability and good all round running costs this car was giving me, plus a little bit of the saxo has become a part of me over the last 3 years! so then....

the plan was to attack three aspects of the car in order to freshen up the car and make it feel like it was a new start in effect, but all in a subtle way as always!!

-Engine/Performance
-Interior
-External

let the pictures begin!

Engine/performance

Leaving FCS im sure you all heard me and my split exhaust, this needed to be fixed and set the ball rolling. purchased a full magnex from c8james and sold my old backbox, follwing this came a janspeed 4-2-1 manifold
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSC00792.jpg
this was then heat wrapped
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSC00796.jpg
and sprayed with high temp black paint
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/100_2216.jpg
big thanks to yates,leeroy and shauny for helping me get this done into the late hours!
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/100_2218.jpg
another change that day was to remove the resinator box and have a straight through cold air feed to the filter, which can kinda be seen in thee pics when i gave the engine a brisk clean over. nothign matt yates style
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1031.jpg
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1041-1.jpg
this will most likely be further cleaned before trax, although i have no real plans to show the bay so pointless?? lol
problems have occured however with the manifold not liking being lowered 60mm, its hanging very low and making the exhaust follow suit. its does not like bumps of any kind and will probably see itself on its way after trax for me to find a more suitable replacement! shame!
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSC00818.jpg
xantia v6 discs and new pads are sat in the garage waiting till after trax to hopefully stop the brembo squeel!! 2 new 195/40/16 toyo proxes have been ordered also
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN0969.jpg
thats about it for the perfomance so far, cams should be arriving this week i hear.

so watch this space

[dsh85]

Interior
time to update the stock standard vts interior now it was no longer hidden behind tints

out she comes
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/100_2193.jpg
getting carried away tbh
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/100_2195.jpg
carpets out also and were raplaced by later dark grey version thanks to matt
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/100_2196.jpg
in they go
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/100_2214.jpg
doorcards to suit
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/100_2198.jpg
new custom fit mats arrived which look great, ill get a pic up tomorrow of it all in place hopefully!

[dsh85]

External
The last picture i left you with was of this
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSC00750.jpg
the wheels being resprayed in a dark grey which does a very good impression of black, this was generally down to the wheels needing a refurb, i had also played with mk2 standard rears there. anywayy next step

window tints became an issue after recieving a healthy fine, also they were getting a bit on the worn side so decided to take the plunge
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSC00760.jpg
much cleaner looking imo!

now this is a lesson to people who drive sundays still tired from going out the night before, how i managed to not see the parked up massive van i do not know, anyway add it to the list
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSC00816.jpg
it was nice of my mate to also circle it in permanant marker before i caught him writing something

anyhow bank holiday monday came and time to put the plans together, it turned up on the morning clean and as so..
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1029.jpg
work begins
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1034.jpg
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1037.jpg
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1039.jpg
and putting the bits back together
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1042.jpg
new plates also
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1045.jpg
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1043.jpg
trial fitted the splitter whilst it was still a bit wet was risky but im an eager beaver tbh. obv exhaust will have to be lowered down slightly
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1047.jpg

that should be it for trax, splitter and smooth boot lip will be fitted properly within the next couple of days now the paint will be dry, quite dissapointed we didnt attack the weird door panel in time but that can be done afterwards, its more of a photo reaction than an in person one anyhow!

as for the wheel colour its massively grew on me, i dont think photos do it any justice what so ever, it has to be seen in person. so i guess ill be seeing yous on september 2nd ;)

that will be me for now anyways but definately not over, lovin the saxo more than ever actually in parts :panic:

[Saxo-Slag]

Looking tasty mate. Glad you havent sold up. I have same problem with my manifold. Got no heat wrap left on the bottom bit.lol

[dannyjay]

Looking fantastic Danny, looking forward to seeing it at TRAX. Love it. :y:

PS - If the splitter doesn't grow on you, can I get first dibs? Lol. :P

[Saxo-Slag]

Where did you get the splitter. That looks the bollox outside now man. Loving it

[SNewham]

looks nice, I really like the rear splitter, think it suits the saxo down to a T


I'm hoping you mean Septmember 2nd or you'll be there a day late :y:

scott

[hesslevtr]

still should spray the mirrors black

[dsh85]

sean i was going on at you at fcs sayin i was gonna make changes haha! i got the splitter from mr jpsaxo on here, top guy

danny - im sure we can come to an arrangement if it dont fill my needs

scott i have amended the date for you ;), really lookin forward to gettin the splitter on properly

hessle - just no lol

[Mystic]

Yeh the 4-1s tend to droop a bit lower than the 4-2-1's, it doesnt fare well with low cars :sad:

So the xantia discs arent on yet? Would be interesting to see if they do reduce the squeal. There are some drilled & groved xantia discs on that parts website too. Dont know if they would still be un-squealy though.

[dannyjay]

danny - im sure we can come to an arrangement if it dont fill my needs

I'm sure it will though! :P

thats what worried me too mate, otherwise id have snapped them up. i think i also heard people may have got the discs from diffrent places and they havent worked so i stuck with the proven method hopefully.

im going to squeel round silverstone anyway, may aswell put the wear on them ones, no one has any excuse to miss me coming therefore!

[kevvts]

Haha you finally got some plates ;)

Looks good :y:

[Yates]

so danny being danny gets all girl and tbh im not sure why but he was around mine again, leeroy and shaun came over again and first of all me leeroy and shaun sorted the exhaust gasket on mine, but then we got cracking on dannys car

was a scary site to see danny attempting to do things to his car

Yeh probably best that way tbh, the grooved and drilled ones might aswell be gti180 ones probably. Might try them one day if noone else ever does, got a set of the xantia v6 ones to fit atm.

What did you use to sort the paintwork? & wtf is "mr sleepy" lol

Cars lookin ace, as always btw.

[Bowey]

smart as fuck, u work at billy near tesco?

[Mystic]

dannys is a 4-2-1

Right enough, barely a 4-2-1, but a 4-2-1 none the less. Although it follows the same shape as the 4-1's which is why it hangs down further than if the 4 into 2 join was closer to the middle of the manifold.

[Wayne]

[thadogg]

Looks mint mate, the dark rims and the rear splitter look awesome!

[Clouds_mate]

Do mine what again? when who where?

[rushy_23]

Danny youve done a great job mate getting the motor back on track. Love the
wheels, so much better without the tints, and its nice and clean!

Think I may have to rethink my top 5 cars from the site...

[Payney]

Best silver Saxo on the site me thinks.

[Hopcraft]

think it looks amazin, much better new look, im not keen on rear splitter idea though, but rest of car looks good, and wheel colour is great too.

[rushy_23]

Rear splitter makes the car look hardcore like Willsy's

[Amiee]

Splitter looks good danny! Tbh prefere it without the tints too :y:

[bide_furio]

car looks mint mate!

[saxovtrandy]

[jpsaxo]

looking ace pal, love it :)

[Clouds_mate]

mod your car again

i want some pro race 2 alloys in black and some 4 pots.

Holiday at xmas has taken all my pennys, so it would have to happen after then. Tempted to sell the car at that time tho. Altho isnt really many cars i want that i fancy running to work everyday and use on the motorway so might keep the paxo and invest a bit of cash into it.

[Dan]

Looking good Dan, not keen on the rear splitter though pal.

[jaybiss]

[rushy_23]

Car looks the nuts at Trax mate, cant remember if Ive posted that already.
Just unsure on the rear splitter thing too.

Done a good job with the wheels and stuff.

[Karl]

I really like that rear splitter tbh.

[dsh85]

The End of the road.............

well on wednesday 7th december 2005 this came into my life

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/5627ecf7.jpg

and today, saturday 17th novermber 2007 i waved goodbye :(

its really sad to see it go but i knew inside it was time for a change, its heading for its new home now in crewe, so keep an eye out for it if you live there!!
currently im not sure on what i want next but with 2 weeks until the christmas party and no car. i best get a move on!

will i ever see it again? i hope so! the car has been my life for the last two years and opened a lot of new doors for me in a weird kinda way!
ill never really say a bad word about a saxo, sure they are better cars in ways but its been a ace 2 years of ownership!! i wouldnt rule out going back at somepoint either!

anyway thought id take some farewell photos, but in tru dsh85 style, the battery gave in on the camera! twice! so there limited!

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b272/dsh85/Progress/DSCN1067.jpg

[craig180]

Most people would look for/buy a new car before selling their old car. Nutter!

Shame to see it go, but still........

I reckon something with a whacking great T4 turbo should be on the cards next.

Don't buy a VX220 I don't want you taking my limelight in the new year;)

[dsh85]

[Sean]

I swear he's a bandit, and anyway the power will kill him long before he ever gets used to it.

[leeroybrown]

I swear he's a bandit

exactly what i said to

TBH its very nice what he has bought

[dsh85]

[Tupps]

AudiDanny....

[dsh85]

weathers been gash, aint had chance to get any pics. especially when it gets dark so early also

[Karl]

what colour is it Danny?

what engine?

[dsh85]

big pimping

all will be revealed.......... probs xmas party the way the wether is going

[Dan]

Get some pics up over the weekend dude!!!

[dsh85]

ill try mate. could have got some today but for it being at a garage getting it checked out!

its runing too lean and bringing the engine managment light up, so trying to narrrow down what the problem is

awesome start! bring back the tu engine

[leeroybrown]

When i drove it the other day thought something was up cos it didnt seem to pull as hard as i thought

TBH what is the code number that is coming up

I'd put it down to MAF sensor or coil pack common problem on VAG engines

[Luke]

What engine is in it mate?

Can't wait to see it..

[leeroybrown]

1.8 20v turbo

[Luke]

Good lad, was hoping he would of gone for the Turbo once.

Nice to drive Mr. Brown?

[leeroybrown]

yeah its nice, running lean at min due to dodgy sensor

but am sure it will be better

[Luke]

Hope it's got the 18" RS4 alloys on too.

Will look the bees knees if it has, but I'm sure Danny won't wanna replace the tyres.

[leeroybrown]

just got the normal 225 alloys on

[jonesyFX]

does need lowering a tad, then its just right

although some nice alloys would set it off veryyy well!!

ASW - 2000 post woop woop

[Viper]

[Luke]

Only spamming this because you ain't got another ;)......yet!

[Dan]

Are you modding the TT Dan?

[dsh85]

unsure mate, nothing major

wouldnt mind it a little lower, maybe even a change of wheel who knows

for the moment im just enjoying it and replacing cooling sensors

[Mystic]

Nice DSH, i think a TT is one of the few cars that tempts me within a reasonable budget.

What are the book figured for it then? It the daddy or is that the 3.2 V6 one?
