Well, since Ive had it I have removed the ACE 17's and replaced them with Custom painted multispoke 15's purchased from WestyVTR with Khumo tyres all round.
I have replaced the universal Jap style backbox with a Janspeed 3.5 inch inward rolled one and I've put a de-cat on too.
EBC front discs and EBC greenstuff pads.
Sprayed the rear 'Citroen' and 'Saxo' badges black.
De-wipered
Laquered and cleaned several parts in the engine bay
Sprayed the front mesh black
Dimma fuel cap (WIll prob spray this black too)
JBL 1000 watt and Fli 1000 watt subs (both 12inch) with Infinity 6x9s
Sax-p stickers!
Standard Mk2 rear lights instead of LexArse ones
Smoked side repeaters
Removed the rear silver/black tints
Bee sting arial

-Being Lowered 40mm all round on friday
-Black Angel eyes to come
-Enclosed induction to come

Future plans -
Ported and polished head
Cam
ECU remap
4-1 manifold
Straight thru exhaust centre section
Chrome engine bay parts incl rocker cover etc. . .
Finally superchip the beast!
Possibly a VTS or 1.1 gearbox too

AND...finally...if it gets this far...a SUPERCHARGER!!

Comments welcomed!
Cheers :Y:

Only one weird thing here tho - it has a coil pack yet it also has the distributor assy - I was told by citroen it would have been blacnked off with a metal plate. . .?!

Looking good, plans sound exciting too. Needs some standard mirrors though.

Eibach front springs (45mm) are coming tomorrow, and the rear is being lowered tomorrow too with shorternd billstein shocks 40mm :D:D Cant wait! But got to fit a new gearbox at the weekend as I have lost 5th gear, and reverse is not good either :( Doh...

Nice. But i would go down at least 45mm on the rear, so it is level.
