small wheels = more speed Very Happy

Plans: adjust the coilovers about 1-2cm lower, rollcage, silver front grill and some 6x9's for now and in the long-term I'm gonna get some angel eyes and some lambo doors

Fair point...but lambo doors on a saxo do you not think maybe modifying it a little bit more exterior wise would be a better idea before sticking lambo doors on it, its nice to be different thats all and the lambo doors on almost standard saxos are so common these days.

It Looks Nice Wa Size Engine Is It 1.4 ??

1.6i - 108bhp

I just like lambo doors and apart from that the rest is going to be a drag slag Razz

dont lambo it fella, adding extra weight wont help on the strip! Go for a 8v turbo kit and then you'll not care how your doors open!!!

I didnt know that lambo doors increased weight... thanks for that lol

Yeah, its massive hinges and rams to hold the doors up, plus you need to extend the wiring too. For a strip slag, get the insides out and put a turbo on the 8valver. Job done!!!

smaller wheels are better for acceleration not overall speed Wink

as pete says if you want to take it on the strip then forget stuff like lambo doors and a cage, your not going to need either and they do weigh alot which is the opposite of what you want, so get the interior out and make it very minimal, if your crazy about the strip then weight loss is the best thing you can do, remove the interior, power steering, sun roof, heater system etc, it will all add up to a considerably amount of weight which could shave a second off your time.
either way keep up the nixe work Wink

sorry mate didnt mean anything by it, just pointing out you dont need a cage for track days as its just unnecessary weight which will slow you down. Smile

I'm not that much of a drag strip fan to empty it out, just want a faster than standard nice looking VTR that can also be used on stand too
