X895INVER progress thread.. New headlights fitted
Hello there.. Thought it was time to start up a progress thread on here, considering this is the only place I use to help me when Im stuck with the amount of info on here, and its good seein all the different approaches on moddin saxos.
So, I own a saxo vtr 03 plate, bought it just in the middle of summer 2009, it came pretty much standerd off my mate with 64k on the clock at a decent price. The only thing he had already done was get a powerflow cat back system fitted, which I was goin to get anyway. So since then Iv just had a few wee things done.
Fitted:
K&N 57i gen2
Powerflow custom 3in cat< exhaust
raceland upper strut brace
Pioneer head unit
Home made short ariel
Team Dynamics pro race 1.2 se in 15s
De wiped
Spax psx kit 40mm all round
Streamline Carbon mirror caps
Wind deflectors
Ultra, black headlights
Plans:
Carbon, spoiler, bonnet.
Fast road cam kit
Piper 4-1 manifold (heatwrapped)
Saxsport race exhaust
Stand alone management
Either Yamaha r1 or gsxr throttle bodies and inlet manni
Mocal 12 row oil cooler
Silicone hoses
Fixed back buck seats and 4 point harnesses
Oil pressure/temp, air/fuel ratio gauges
Plans are never ending but the outcome will hopefully end up the way I want it.
Rant over, cheers..

Right so the car is headin to the garage in the next 2 weeks to get the coilies fitted, thinkin on lowerin 40mm all round, but is it better to have the back end lowerd slightly more or less than the front or would it be fine, 40 all round? Rear flaps will be coming off aswell but leavin on the front ones.
