Dont strip your saxo! its a hatchback and isnt supposed to look like a gutted rally car!
I know the interiour's arent great in the VTR/S's and are made of really thin plastic but its another aspect of the car that can be improved/modified! :)

Liking the car so far!
Gutted for you about the ball joints etc...! f'king hate it when that sort of 5H1T happens just after buying a car!

Tried fitting the manifold today, took us 11 hours haha... long story, but it's on, but exhaust gasket isnt on right so its blowing like a tank :n:

Should be sorted 2moro tho, touch wood.

VtrFarlz86 31st January 2009 22:19

yea i did which took me a good 7 hours tbh... couldnt tap the hole, so ended up taking radiator and fan out to get a drill down there to drill the tap in :homme:, finally did it and got a bolt in which should hold, hopefully..

when i fired it up it woke the street up lol LOUD!!

Heatwrapp started smoking so i got the hose pipe ready in case of fire rofl

Heres a few pictures of the fitting process...
Starting with taking original manifold off, new gasket, finished wrapped manifold, new tap set for oil return hole, then couldnt get tap to work so had to drill it, causing me to take radiator out and fan...

Then the new filter was fitted...

More will be added later... :y:
(still blowing atm :n: )
