Thanks buddy

Not sure if i like them yet...

Find out tommorow morning and then go for a test drive to get some pictures in :y:

Update 9/2

Time to shed some more weight :p



Doorcards front and rear removed, all trims and plastics stripped ready for spraying

I've decided on gloss black before everything is re-trimmed in red and black leather and a few bits flocked for that sexy look






Few snaps of the bay as a sneak peak of what you'll see at the RR day ;)


Old lights still on just for one last day...

RedB 9th February 2008 23:48

This 'little' package arrived today aswell


Wonder what they could be?










Love the look of them :)

See how they look tommorow before deciding to keep or send them onto a new home...

RedB 9th February 2008 23:53

Front windows and sunroof being tinted before the RR day today aswell

*Lots going on i know :p::panic:*


Saw this Renault Espace with Nordschleife/Nurburgring stickers on whilst i was parked inside and made me laugh so i had to take a snap...or two



Windows being finished...


Pics up once she's had a clean tommorow :y:

After the tints were finished i met up with Dez at Solar Screen who was also having his windows tinted and we cruised down to Brighton for the CS RR day at GTart...

RedB 10th February 2008 00:07

Arriving at GTart for the RR day i saw these jap beasts from the east...




800bhp!


Mine :A:



Few videos of the session in which i produced the second best RR results out of the saxo's, even beating Alex's VTS which has re-profiled cams and has also been re-mapped using the exisiting ECU!
Damo (Icelandic blue sax) beat me me one or two bhp but i was still happy considering my car will be 10 just before Trax@Silverstone this year :fcuk:





140hp
125Bhp at the wheels...

Supersprint manifold
Supersprint full exhaust
Carbon fibre induction kit with large air filter (chavvy one being replaced soon)
Heat-wrapped
Stripped to fook

New carpet and lights should be fitted tommorow if i get time...
More pics tommorow of the new interior and engine bay :)

Pat_Vts 10th February 2008 03:20

you have pm regarding ellie

craig180 10th February 2008 04:39

Good RR result mate! Mine made 141 with standard cams and ecu recently!

Not sure at all on those new front lights. I think you should sell them on

Saxy1 10th February 2008 08:27

Good progress mate.

Adam_Q 10th February 2008 10:22

Progress looks sweet dude! Wish I'd had time to bring my beast down ;)

Karl 10th February 2008 10:43

/agreed, dont put angel eyes on, will ruin "Ellie"

And headwork?

I was happy with the figures as i knew i should have run better fuel like V-power and as a consequence has a few teeny weeny DET problems but nothing major

Some people may say "Oh yeah V-power this, higher octane is balls" but i do feel a slight difference in response and general smoothness of the engine

GT ART also confirmed this to me and my session next month will show the results more clearly :)

You could have still but no worries dude

Good to know that everything is fitted and well with 'Suki' :)

RedB 10th February 2008 12:51

Update 10/2

Interior has now been fully re-sprayed gloss black and just one harness is installed for me because i forgot they come as single items even though the pictures may show two ;)

*Schoolboy error - note to self*

Going out now to fit the 'new' lights so we will see whether they stay or go

Need your opinions on the results :y:

Alex 10th February 2008 12:53

Did you get the wire joiners?

yerdusk 10th February 2008 14:08

Sounded nice on the RR ;)

Danr 10th February 2008 18:04
