Thought I would share my project car to try and revive the forum a little bit as well.
This started as a 1.1 Saxo then swapped to a VTR engine,done 1 track day at Donnington and decided I wanted more so put the 1.6 16v in,some pictures of the the job I went trough the last 2,5 years so there is going to be quite a lot of pictures.

VTR engine out:

Before putting the new engine in I wanted to do some fab on the engine bay while treating the rust and doing some streghtening too:

some pictures missing but didn't want a lower brace sticking out of the bottom of the front end so decided to weld on above the chassis leg to do the same job:

VTS engine mount,version 2 as the first one the pipe was not thick enough.

that's not finished some pictures missing.

Engine in:

It made a few pops when it was cold lol:

I think i drove it standard for about a year then decided it was time for some performance upgrades,staying NA though for reliability reasons and usability.

Old head off:
