no thanks mate, just cammed this engine. And second hand engines in the NL are not as cheap as in the UK so i'm keeping this engine for a while. Any other sugestions?

[kistigun]

been cleaning the car this morning and also have some new goodies so here is a small update:

cleaned sax:


new Momo Gara gear knob:


New smoked rears:



Also I've put in some Osram nightbreakers in the angels and have to say they are great, really a difference of night and day!!!

I'm still on the look out for a 8V vernier pulley, powerflex lower engine mount and some uprated linkages so if you have one please let me know.

Colour code the boot lock button & flat blade the rear wiper (as you're keeping it) Simple jobs.

small update:

Fitted a Nissens rad & a Powerflex lower engine mount today. Also collor code my grille:



And fitted a Ibiza splitter:



Also recieved a vernier pulley last friday thanks to BLUE_DEVIL:


when i fitted the lower engine mount i found out the lower fitting of the 421 mani was broken. Is this a problem or can i leave it like that?

[BLUE_DEVIL]

No worries Tim Your Saxo is looking smart. I also had an Ibiza splitter on my VTR too

[Marcus000]

How much did you get the vernier pulley for?

I'm looking at getting the Baker pulley for my VTR!

I bought it from Blue_Devil for 70 pounds, did not yet install it because i'm currently bussy with some cooling issues and new alloys & snowtyres. Don't know yet when i'm going to install it because im currently looking at the possibilty to change my head for a 1.6 head.

The baker pulley is supposed to be good, you can check out LeeumH old progress thread. He had one on his old VTR

i love that splitter

nice looking gold saxo, nice to see saxp being represented well in NL.

nice car mate, but have you thought about fitting a 106 rallye 1.3 8v head and inlet/throttle body? thats what im doing to my vtr as the throttle body is made out of aluminum and is apparently 3 times bigger then my vtr one and it gives the car an immense induction roar and the rallye head has got a better cam in it over the vtr one so you would probably make more bhp out of the rallye bits over the vtr bits but im guessing you will put the kentcam in the new head? so maybe just fit the rallye inlet?? plus the rallye inlet looks lovely imo

I'm currently looking in to a head conversion. Checking out swapping with a vtr head and keeping the cam of course. Don't know if a rallye head would fit? also on the look out for a rallye inlet but they are quit expensive and i hear they are a pain to fit. But they do look great especially if you paint or polisch them

Little update: today i finnally bought a green filter & green carter filter for €22,- just fitted it and the car sounds a lot meaner also a simota airbox is on the way in stead of the raceland airbox(i know they are the same) Also i'm going to my first Saxo/106 meeting in Eindhoven this sunday. will shoot some pics for sax-p

[jeffchiz]

yea rallye head will fit i got my rallye inlet for £95 deliverd and the guy who had it before me said it ran fine idle was spot on
