Cheers boys and girls.
In talks with Sandy about mapping it. Will be a bit more expensive as i'll have to get the car transported down and home, but I thoroughly believe in the "do it once, do it right" rule, and I know he will do a great job.
Oh, and Jage, this is where you have been hiding eh.

Yeah I agree totally. I wouldn't have had morettes on my old saxo but they suit the 106 light shape much better.
I think saxo's look much more modern standard than a 106 does.

I don't like morettes on MK2 Saxos, prefer them on MK1s
Your car looks amazing too mate!

Car looks amazing great work! Are the front bumper brackets an easy job to weld on new ones? Needing mine sorted soon.

Yeah the front bumper brackets weren't bad to do, it's just a case of making sure they are 100% in the right place so the bonnet and wings still sit nicely
Updates...
wired in the kill switch, made a blanking plate and mounted it where the radio would have been, just need some tidier black bolts.
I bought myself another Suzuka for the passenger side. Still need to offer up my door bars and see if it clears but it's nice having matching seats. The Suzuka I have got is slightly older than mine, and is slightly different, hopefully there won't be any issues.
Difference in sides comparing with my imola...
One seat...
New seat in...
now matching bar white stitching...
Made up a bracket for my catch tank tonight, just need to paint it tomorrow, need to order some prettier nuts and washers to fit it too.
My temporary gearbox is such an eye sore!
Been busy painting bits today too, but I'll update that when everythings fit.
