gavbey · 9th December 2008, 15:05

yep. my last saxo was silver. cant afford insurance till march when iv got my 2 years ncb.

been looking at angel eyes.
what do you guys think of them?

danboy · 7th January 2009, 17:08

looks nice that gav. il still be beating ya in da 106.. c2 vts 12k engine just about in it now ha. when ya back in town you gotta come see me.

stoner75 · 7th January 2009, 23:13

yer thats a nice car mate, id say you got a bargain at that price aswell, paid more for mine standard, with more miles and its only an 02 lol

gavbey · 8th January 2009, 12:38

yea i did get a decent dell. that price is encluding what it cost to fly down and drive it back up also.

it did have a slight knoking from the frount when you took the foot off the throttle.
at first i thought it would be the ecu engin mount which was woriening me but after jacking it up and having a look it was the wishbone bushes.

i replaced both wishbones and it runs perfect with no knocks and its realy tight in general.

i have pics but wont be able to put them up intil i get my new phone lead from fleebayy.

...

and dan,
u finaly got the 106 on the go. its definatly worth having to splash out the money as they 106's are geting a tad rare in teeside lol.. too many trees and ditches jumping out at people hehe.

im going down the line of newman ph3 cams and remap.. need to start saving first tho.

comments please

Hopcraft · 8th January 2009, 13:00

Gotta bargain there, 36k !!!!! niceeee.

gavbey · 9th January 2009, 09:02

yep Hopcraft.

its guenuine to. i hpi cheacked ect because i didnt belive it myself!

its fairly rapid too..

need to get a de-cat pipe and lambda blanking plug tho just to free up thoses revs

gavbey · 20th January 2009, 16:19

fixed the knocking at the frount. it wasnt the ecu engine mount, it was a broken wishbone bush. replaced both sides for good measure,

the worst part was taking up the carpet!!!

here is some pics

ohh and hers my christmas presents.

lower strut brace tooo

ill soon be driving it yeeehaaa

gavbey · 20th January 2009, 16:21

oh and heers another pic i took the other day on the new wishbones road test.

its very dirty but looking quite nice

gavbey · 2nd February 2009, 10:28

gavbey · 12th February 2009, 11:51

OLLYVTS · 12th February 2009, 12:32

Have you got many other plans for it?

gavbey · 12th February 2009, 12:37
