Bikekid450's MK1 VTR (Updates 16/9/2011) ¯\(°_o)/¯

[RustySkull]

I'm Sorry About The Photo's That Don't Work Anymore!


Well Ahoy friends, I have decided to start one of these progress threads as no one looks on my Blog lol.

After being a chav with my 1.1 for 2 years(I still have it) I bought my VTR some time last year, this pretty much how it looked.
It came with green 205 wheels, but I didn't like them so I sold them lol.

http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=4892
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=5390

Stripped out, so I put my 1.1 seats in it for the time being.


Just after I got it the Clutch went, so me and a mate changed that :fcuk:

http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=4979
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=4977

We had to change the lot because it was all fucked lol. I had to take some parts from my new VTR engine in my workshop.

Then, just after that my beam gave up, after going through 4 new pairs of shocks. So, I ordered a new Olilte Axle from IM Axles.

http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=5391

And some Shocks from Kam Racing.

http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=5398
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=5399

And then tried to fit it on my drive with Axle stands.
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=5396

But the car fell on me... So after cleaning up my boxers I went to my good friend Tom, and he fitted it on the lift for me.

http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=5397
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=5393

Now it sits 60/60 rather than 120/60 lol.
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=510&pictureid=5400

[seanjp]

[RustySkull]

it looks nice mate, you got any plans for it?

I've done loads to it, I've just got to take pictures lol I could never be bothered to make a thread before...

This summer I hope to have the new engine in though :)

I'll take pictures of how it stands now, in a sec. Those pictures are old lol.

But, Plans are basically...

New Engine in
Show Cage
New Leathers as I don't like the ones I have now
And just fix little things that are wrong now.
And fit my Morettes lol.

[seanjp]

sounds nice you putting a 16v in it then?

[RustySkull]

sounds nice you putting a 16v in it then?

Nah I'm staying 8V, I bought a VTR lump on 50,000 miles last winter. It's in bits right now (Pictures up soon) But it's getting new Pistons, bearings, head work, ITB's, Flywheel lightened, New ECU.

If things go to plan I hope to get as much out of an 8v as is possible without turboing lol.

People say forget it just get a VTS lump, but I don't want to... I'm different :)

[RustySkull]

Also got some Morettes:

car looks great mate:y: looks like you are replacing worn parts with quality items too:y: what kind of power figure are you looking for once you build up the new engine? also I never had time today to figure out the problems you asked me about last night:y:

[Chris0211]

Nice car. The stance looks so much nicer with the new beam.

[RustySkull]

Ahh it's kool mate.

I'm not really sure, I'm doing it because I love building engines and the satisfaction of driving about in a car I pretty much rebuilt and including the engine. I will be happy for anything over 100HP but I've been told with my plans for setting it up I might see close to 150HP :D

What would you think?

I'm not sure what Cam to go for yet, I bought an Ultimate Road Cam but sent it back because I had second thoughts but I think I should have kept it lol.

[RustySkull]

Right, this is my engine as it stands.

Getting it from the car I bought it from:

http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/Bikekid450/VTR/20122009651-Copy.jpg

Then the next day when I got it home:

http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/Bikekid450/VTR/22122009661-Copy.jpg
I had to take the Gearbox off to carry them up the Garden to my workshop :D
http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/Bikekid450/VTR/22122009663-Copy.jpg
The water had frozen in the Engine, That's why it didn't start:
http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/Bikekid450/VTR/22122009660-Copy.jpg
The Cam Belt had stripped, causing loss of compression:

http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/Bikekid450/VTR/30012010765-Copy.jpg
So once it was in my workshop I started to take it apart:

http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/Bikekid450/VTR/31012010797-Copy.jpg

And it's still in bits now. But! When I've fixed the things that are wrong with the car, and I can spend more time on the Engine it'll be together in no time :D

[-shuggles-]

I want to see this complete asap to get a rough power estimate for mine :p

[RustySkull]

Lol man I really hope I can get it built soon!

[RustySkull]

Also painted my Rocker cover last week:

[RustySkull]

I am always getting people on YouTube asking for more Video's of my VTR with my Janspeed backbox, so I made another Video.

And I thought I'd post it on here also as I made it today and you can see how the car is right now! :)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPoYNOwoe-8&feature=feedu

http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/Bikekid450/VTR/030220112176.jpg

Secondlyyyy I need your opinions friends, Keep or get rid of these seats?

I ideally want some leather buckets for the front, and a black show cage with my seats still in, but do you think I should keep the Yellow ones or get some GTI's?
I bought these seats for my other Posi Saxo, I can't decide if they suit this colour of car... Also GTI cards are on my list of things to get!

[Sophia_Bush]

[stevo67]

Its nice car mate suggestion for you why not get the door cards out of a 1.1 desire as their plain black plastic 1`s then put a thin yellow pinstripe on them with tape.

Steve.

[RustySkull]

Thanks guys.
I wanted GTI door cards with the leather.

See, I have a thing with Black, I really love black for some reason... I'm like a Goth in Disguise lol

I am thinking of leathering my current cards... Hmmm :S

Yeh, I have a reputation for that lol.

But it is nice when people like your car too :)

But the other things you're all gona have to wait and see.

Given the compression test results I did today I'm not to sure lol.

[Abass123]

[RustySkull]

yeah they do look good but nothing compared to a real cage. showcages are priced a bit better tho lol

Yeh price and the fact I want my seats in is what made me go for a show cage, I almost bought a real cage but then decided not to, just yet.

But when I get my new engine in, I might well do because I'll be doing some track days, depending if I go Rally style or track style lol.

In the summer, if it's not I'm gona hang myself.

But seriously the car will be done this summer, Engine I hope to have built as soon as I get a job and start earning that funny stuff we call money... :y:

I have a good job but somehow I can't get my finger out and buy parts that i actually need. Don't be like me and buy parts such as lights,wheels ect until the engine and stuff is finished. I have been doing my car for 4 months now and only just got onto the saving for sending it to gmc lol fml

[RustySkull]

any idea on what ones you are going for?

I can't decide... What ones do you have?

See I like raw low end power more than high end power... Plus with my Heavy Cam I'm not 100% sure what are best yet, any advice you could give to make my choice easier would be handy :D

[RustySkull]

Kinda of wish I didn't sell my Twin 40's lol...

Not fixable? :n:

[joe333]

looking good mateyy!

[RustySkull]

Not fixable? :n:

As you can see in the first pictures.

There is no fixing for the inner lamps, the side light won't go in, the gap is far too small.
How do you fix the bottom of the morettes down? There's no bolt holes!

Plus they have no leveling system, they point straight to the floor... Useless lol.

I spent a whole afternoon trying to fit them... I just gave up because my hand were so cold and I broke my standard lights by accidentally kicking one of them lol.

to hold the bottom down there is a white clip to hold it to the wing iirc. the sidelights are a cunt to get in too.

Try these. One or two poor reviews online but I used them for my mk1 ax when I was having problems and they were really good! Plus they seem to have moved from ockendon to Basildon which makes them proper local!

Gahhaha I love you! Thanks! :D

[Gareth_R]

No probs! When I used them I took my dizzy, coil, and ignition amplifier to them and they put it all on a test bed, diagnosed the problems and gave me the new parts I needed. Which was good cos I was going to buy a new coil but it was actually the amplifier

[RustySkull]

You may be a useful bean to me, I might PM you in a sec, I have some questions I need to address, if that's dandy with you? :)

[Gareth_R]

Yup no worries

[RustySkull]

PM'd :D

[Alanapone]

What bike are the bodies off? do you need a dizzy conversion to use them as well?

I've got a silvertop like yours and was wondering about getting bike bodies on along with a PH3 cam.

Looking good so far mate ;)

[RustySkull]

My bonnet is lockable anyway and it's alarmed :P

[RustySkull]

Well friends, updates are slow due to my poor Cat becoming ill.

Over a grands worth of Vets Bills and I'm not feeling too happy either.

But, I think I've found an S1 head so as long as I can sell the 1.1 SOON I can get the Pistons in and we're away :)

[Reece1591]

must be one them times mate my arosa's gearbox has gone so need another one £500 for recon one and like £300 for second hand one so might aswell get recon one then clutch like £130

and to finally top it off insurance runs out on 15th this month and cant renew it on the arosa or the saxo serious sad face

[RustySkull]

[RustySkull]

Hmm, updates are slow, due to me getting a new Job and girlfriend issues.

But! I'll be ordering most of the parts to finish my Engine soon :)

[Gareth_R]

Spuds good mate

Pet insurance ftw, dog broke her leg only cost us £60

[RustySkull]

Had to have my Cat put to sleep in the end, and £3k in bills.

Now, I think I'm going to split up with my girlfriend after 3 years, so I'm gona need something to keep me happy, So I'm not gona hang about with this Engine.

I'm also buying a 240SX to mess about with :)
