Hey all, after a year and a half of being on here i finally got myself a VTR (I had 1.0 Spree for a year until my insurance went down a little bit) so i thought i'd share it with you and my plans ;)
I'm not sure on the make of any of the parts as they all came with the car when i bought it but anyway!

So far.. it has

Lowered on 40mm springs
3" Backbox & 4 2 1 manifold

Dimma Grill DONE
Get the Bumpstrips sprayed gloss black all round
De-Wiper DONE
Wide Mouth
Get a decent headunit & Sub
106 mirrors
20mm SpacersDONE

And a picture of my Uncle and Grandad giving me a hand with my old 1.0 :y:

looks really tidy mate :y: nice1

Cheers buddy :y:

Nice VTR mate. Like the headlights like

Very nice VTR! looks very clean!

Best of luck with the plans!

Thanks Buddy :y:

Cheers mate, just waiting for pay day and then i can sort all of the sound system out, got a crappy DIY sub in the boot at the moment which literally takes up the whole boot!

That is lovely, makes me want a black one lol

Looks nice, that definitely only a 40mm drop?

looks good mate, but id change that exhaust, i personaly dont likt big japs cans on a saxo....get a magnex or something smaller :-0

i want your doorcards!!!
excellent example here btw!

looks like a tidy saxo mate i like it, as said before would change the exhaust though

Thanks mate :y:

Thats what i've been told but i've got a feeling it may be 50mm, still gonna drop it down to 60mm after xmas though ;)

Cheers buddy, i quite like it to be honest, i think its only a 3" but i've heard that supersprint's sound pretty sweet with a de-cat so im kinda leaning to one of those

Thanks mate ;)

naaaa do this
Now onto my plans!

Drop it to 60mm 70mm back
custom smooth gril Grill
Get the Bumpstrips sprayed gloss black all round
De-Wiper
Wide Mouth
Get a decent headunit & Sub

that will look soooo clean :)

Update!

So a few weeks back i took the car into a garage for a full service and they came back saying that the only thing wrong was that all the brakes were 90% worn and the 2 front tyres were worn away on the inside so i thought that they'd quote me about £200-300 to sort it..

wrong..

they wanted £900 overall for it, so i told them fuck themselves and did it all myself!

Just got some Mintex discs, pads and then painted the calipers


and got my plates off the old saxo on the new one :)
Bit of a poor picture, sorry!



So now that all the necessary repairs have been done i can now move onto the mods, will update asap :)

thanks for looking!

Thats exactly what i meant when i said my original post :P
those wheels look pretty sweet as well, bit cheap for what they are though, you sure thats not a scam?

wheres the seats from?

I'm not sure mate, the bloke i bought it off said they were fitted when he got it so god knows!

really like this, love the interior :y:

Looks nice, I like the headlights. Nice choice of reg plate too! ;)

Which subs are you looking at?

Very nice mate

Thanks man, thinking of doing an entire dash flock, do you think it would go with leather?

Cheers mate, just something cheap and cheerful that i can stick into the parcel shelft ;)

something like this

Cheers buddy :)

Haven't updated this in a while as i've been quite busy and had a lack of funds!

So i've recently bought myself a dimma grill and some clear jewels, going to fit the grill this weekend and the lights next weekend as i want to spray the bottom half red, will put some pics up when i get the grill on at the weekend :y:

Looks good mate :D

So i got my Dimma grill on in the end today, took a bit of work but its on!

picture doesn't really do the car justice as i was in a rush!
Will be getting the lights on next week and hopefully some decent pictures!

bang tidy that car :)

Taking a bit longer than i expected to get going with the modding

I've almost finished my Euro rear lights, i sprayed both of them but one of them came out a bit shitty so i'm re-doing it over the weekend and they should be on the car by sunday
after that it will be the GAZ coilovers and then the starmags by august time hopefully :y:

Just got a crappy little picture from the gym car park today anyway

Just a casual picture, finally got all the back spray off the top of my clear jewels so gonna try and fit them over the weekend :y:

Finally an update!

So... i had a complete disaster with the old set of clear jewels i had, the paint ran like crazy and basically ruined the lights so i bought a set of Clear jewels with the bottom painted red from JoshFurioBrookes (A really nice guy who helped me out alot)

and they're finally on =)


So now i'm onto wheels and i've given up with starmags as i realised they are just too small but i've been really tempted by DARE RS alloys, what do people think?

thanks for looking! :y:


Oh and, Rocking the Angry Bird on the parcel shelf ;)

Looking good buddy:y:

Looking at the back of that reminds me of my old saxo :( loved that thing!

Cant wait to get my jewels, should be here in next few days, freshens up the back of the car very nicely, standard lights are just too grey and dull!

loving the back lights, worth the wait to get them on.

Glad your happy with the lights man :)

All the rear end needs is de-wipering, maybe a new exhaust and get sine back to black on the bumpstrips and it will be looking spot on! :)

very clean car :P

looks nice a clean bud

Unfortunately my power steering pipes have been sawed straight through by the steering rack and are now leaking power steering fluid everywhere!
gonna get it sorted on Friday but for now its another problem added to the list!



Thanks mate

Have you got a progress thread for your old saxo? I wanna have a look ;)


Yes i am thanks buddy, they really clean up the rear :y:

I've always been tempted by de-wiper but it just seems alot of work that could end in disaster, i've seen a few people smash their back windows and i just know i'd end up doing the same :/

I'm going to get all the bumpstrips sprayed gloss black soon anyway so hopefully they'll look alot better afterwards =)

Ok so when i said slow progress i really meant it! Almost a year later i'm finally getting somewhere..

So i've finally decided that im going to go for a set of Phase 1 starmags and drop my car down 60mm on springs to see how it goes.. If its not too bad then i might take it down a little more but we'll see :)

So things i've got on order at the moment as follows...

-60mm Apex springs
-MTEC Super White bulbs
-20mm Hubcentric Spacers (For when i get the starmags)

i'll be getting my starmags in a few weeks when someone will be home to collect them :)

I've also got some E-tech red tint spray to try and go over my rear lights because the sprayed parts are more of an Orange (See pic) than a red from were its faded so i'm gonna give that a go :)



and just 2 random pictures of my car at the moment. :)

Very nice car keep it up

this makes me want a mk2 :(

Had a few bits come through the post this week :)



Already fitted the MTEC super white bulbs and to be honest i'm a bit dissapointed. From pictures that people have shown after fitting them the light looks like a pure white colour but mine still have the crappy yellow colour to them :(

gonna get the spacers/springs fitted soon :y:

What width are those spacers?
