Shes had her 1st polish since 2006.
intercooler has gone back to pro alloy to have the logo re done lower down, ive got to fit the side repeaters back in and wire the nos solenoids and its ready for the track.
MOT will be sorted this week when i get chance to get it in the bay
(tape has still to come off the dash, was just on there to stop it getting scratched while i made it)
Ive been up the road in it and although its quick for a 16v its nothing compared to what it was
i cant see this staying for too long i NEED the turbo back in it

cars :roll:
Got the dash in and finished yest and took it on a little drive to get some fuel on the trade plates and all went well
so thought id do the MOT on it today
start with this
look under hear
and end up with one of these
after that me and a mate decided to grab the trade plates again and go for a proper drive to shake it down, once out of the village i booted it and saw plumes of smoke from the back, pulled over and it turns out the rear tyres are rubbing on the arch under acceleration as its still a little too low and the shocks are set too soft so on sunday i raised it 10 mm at the back and adusted the shocks. once on to the bypass i thought id test it properly :mrgreen:
its quick when it gets going but i noticed when on full throttle the coolant goes from 80 to 120
so went back to the workshop to check it out
i suppose the upside is atleast now i can skim and port the head the bloody headgasket has gone, cant complain as i did pay £100 for the engine, loom, ecu and gearbox. a bit gutted cos ive only done 10 miles in it and the engine is ythe only bit i havent had apart as it was ment to be temp.

ive never really looked at the 16v head closely before, looking at it today i cant beleive how small the ports are compared to the gasket, so after about 5 hours work they want went from this
to this
i was going to get it skimmed to fuck but rememberd high comp and nos dont mix very well so just waiting for a slight skim and it will be going back on, i would of done sat but the milling machine is broken untill monday

Amazing AX!
Ive just aquied one and im looking to do the 16v conversion... Been reading the Wiki on AXOC and slowly picking it up..
To fit a VTS i need a VTS engine, Gearbox and driveshafts? It fits on original mounts? And then i need a VTS engine loom mated too.. Which AX dash loom? Any (as mines a 1.0l) Or will i need a forte dash loom and VTS clocks?
Sorry for the Q's amte but you seem to know your potatoes
Cheers
Ollie

it doesnt have to be a vts box, any saxo, 106 or mk2 ax box will fit, the vts loom can be made to fit your dash loom no problem but i cant remember if the 1.0 has a rev counter if not later clocks will fit and saxo clocks can be made to fit.
the lower gearbox mounts are all the same but you will need to fit an ax gearbox top mount and the cambelt mount needs grinding to fit round the 16v covers

A lovely ax there. Those ports are shocking standard. Should open things up a bit now they're done.
Only thing i'm not too fond of is the wheel
