This is the mutts nutts of a 8v.

Looks spot on mate! With a few more black parts (spoiler, maybe mirror caps?) Its going to look even better :)

must fly with nos was thinkin about puttin it on mine but spent the money on other things :( really nice car tho m8 :y:

really nicely look after saxo

Cheers - Induction kit is a Carbon Simota.Not sure if available now as i got it perhaps 7 years ago ? Have just bought another filter a week or so ago,and had another 'mini-blinging' session under the hood with a few new bits and pieces. Will add pics when its dry outside :y:

Cheers again. Ive got some headlight inserts on the way so i can 'smoke' the fronts,then will have to save my pennies for some smoked rears ! Then rear spoiler in satin black i reckon.....

Cheers thricely ;) Its 'brisk' yes.And yes theres alot of tempting stuff about to spend your dough on !

Cheers,cheers,cheers. Just ordered a smiley / meshed grill this morning (This car will break me the rate im going lately).


Oh,and with the rain this morning i realised how much i would miss the rear wiper.So im cancelling the de-wipering.Might re-consider come summer !!!

im in love :P please let me have it ;) lol

nah mate, looking amazing :) good work

Quick update...

Off work today so fitted new meshed smiley grill (Pic crap as car in shade)

Also piccies to show towing eye cover painted satin black :homme:

And new (non leaking) brake fluid resevoir cap,new air-filter and couple of stickers to brighten the bay up a bit:







Desperately waiting on headlight inserts to arrive so i can 'go smoked'.Bloody Royal Mail !

Ive also got a bright red Piper vernier under that cambelt cover. Anyone made a bracket to keep the hose that runs over the top of it out of the way so the cover can be safely removed ???? Pictures please ????

ah mate, cleanest engine bay i've ever seen

and thats one FUCK OFF INDUCTION!

Great thread mate.

Car is lovely - Especially the engine bay. Looks tidy and minted :-)

Good on you buddy.

Thanks very much - glad my efforts are appreciated ;)

Hopefully be able to get some current rolling road figures next week when the engine 'overhaul' is completed.

Couple of piccies of Engine bay with freshly painted battery tray and battery clip,Vernier wheel cover removed,new stainless bracket for induction kit and breather filter pipework sorted and tidied up:

Battery tray/Induction bracket/Breather:

Also made an effort after a clean today and took some pics NOT right outside my house for a change !! ;)

Looking good there, look forward to the reading updates from time to time, Clean Car!!!!

very nice mate love the engine bay

did u get the new cambelt fitted

Cheers dude.

Yea all went on ok last week thanks with new cam,waterpump,head-gasket etc etc.If it snaps i'll get back to you.lol

De-wipered the rear this morning (And removed 3rd brake light because of the bloody squeeking):



And removed washer jet and got a grommet for that too:



BTW: Fuck Hellfrauds prices for grommets ! I got a pack of two 19mm grommets for the rear window,and two packs of 8mm,10mm and 13mm grommets for the washer hole for £1.55 from Wilco's if theres one near you.......

looks perfect m8 i have the same ideas

Cheers ;)

About to smoke my headlights as soon as the new inserts im waiting for arrive. Then rear spoiler will be re-painted in satin black and im considering doing the mirror caps also to continue the theme....

quality thread mate, will keep watching..
soo clean and well looked after! :D

Easy to remove rear washer? If so, how?

Thanks.......Im pretty handy with a sponge ;)

To remove the wiper jet housing - that squirts the water ?

Just twisted it and pulled it out of the roof (You get a good view of underneath it if the boot is open).Then i folded the water pipe that leads to it in two at the end,and tie-wrapped the end closed so i couldnt get any leaks. Then i simply pushed it back into the hole behind the 3rd brake light (Which i was also removing at the same time).

Voila !

(And BTW: You may find a please and thank-you will help you in life enormously :-) )
