neatening it up

[saxtreme]

basicly i want to make my engine bay look smarter

it realy looks shabby

its a 1.0i not a 1.1

i dont like the look of the standard air filter and that sort of things ...
what could do to it to neaten it up so looks nice and not going to cost loads

and i dont want just an air filkter like k&n
would prefer a cold air fed induction kit

any help very gratefull

thanx in advance

It's difficult on the 1.0/1.1s due to the fact the throttle body is vertical. Most people who do go down the induction kit route just go for a filter and no shiny pipework etc

well it just looks a complete mess here it is

Just give it a really good clean would be a good start, maybe some different coloured wiring loom? Sprayed rocker cover? Strut brace?

[mischief]

i would say get the rocker cover painted and battery and fuse box cover.
And just but a aftermarket filter in the standard box. Just an idea

[saxtreme]

i am going to be painting it
strut brace will be in eventually (when i have money)

i wanted to go down an induction kit to make it look bit smater but will i find 1 for a 1.0i

[gixxa]

is it a left hand drive?

[Saaamon]

Keep it standard? Would look far better imo.

i dont want to keep it standard thats why i made this thread

There's two types of engines for the 1.1 pal, MPi and SPi the one with a vertical inlet is the SPi. The MPi is exactly the same as every other saxo, with a horizontal inlet.

I was wondering the best way to clean my gearbox... it's filthy, and hard to get to clean...

I was confused by the engine being on the other side too. Honda style

[saxtreme]

its not left hand drive i had to use the laptop webca,m to take the photo

so there is nothing i can do ...

bar strut brace but that would realy neaten it up

[piranhamatt]

organise the wiring and tubes?
if they're all tangled why not move them around to like below or beside the parts rather than on top.
Cleaning yes

And the air intake will need to be modernised- currently it is a lot of pipes, you could reduce all that..

[saxtreme]

how would i go about doing that and i wanted to put an idtuction kit and braided hoseing isit it wurth it ... if i can find a induction kit to fit
