Welcome to the channel. Here you will watch me strip down a 2002 Saxo VTS 16v Mk2.
I'll restore everything I possibly can showing you the process and provide some how-to guides. You'll see welding, zinc plating, powder coating, painting and general tidying!
Eventually rebuilding the vehicle back up to a running condition.
The end goal is to have a fast road and track based car.
Engine spec will be boosted. Turbocharged, with forged Internals and all the associated added extra's that are required.
I'm aiming for 350bhp and ~800kgs GVW.
Subscribe and join me on the journey from initial purchase to the end result.

What kind of shock absorbers did you use en what kind of ring to assembly it?
Bilstein b8
probably took u ages to film this, going htrough every little detail. but for someone whos working on his engine for his first time this is a fucking dream mate. makes me so much more confident working on my vts lump. The fact you label everything is a dream also. Thank you
im the guy who mssaged you about the engine mount bolts btw lol
New covers look great! I bet bending over for an hour painting them was less great😂
I’m feeling a custom cover for the leads with a 5axo engraving 😉
I liked the stock covers more
Love it 😍😍😍
I love this build & the engine bay. I'd change the clamp next to the because it kind of looks 'meh' & lets it down!
How's the vibration with the Baker engine mounts? Keep breaking the screws on mine with the stock one but afraid those will be too hard to road use.
It’s worth it, it will be very noticeable at first but they bed in nicely over time, I’d start by fitting a stiffer bushing (like powerflex black) in the lower torque mount first as that may stop you from snapping the bolt in the top engine mount. The buffer that goes under the top mount can be filled with silicone etc to help support the standard mount.
@@edh7492 Thanks for the tips
@@miguelmarques25 most welcome 🫡
watching this for inspiration. I've just picked up a VTS lump to put in my VTR (blew the engine). It's currently at the garage where I know they'll do high quality work but they're looking to charge me a day rate to do it and they're not able to do it till the 1st Aug as they're fully booked. I really don't have that money right now. Considering doing it myself so using this video as inspiration. Relatively new to cars so not sure if ill tackle it
Brothers mate has a hoist, and obviously i have a axle stands, jack, and a good socket and wrench set
Equally, would love the luxury of being able to paint the engine bay. Nothing crazy but just rust protection etc as she's getting on in age as all saxos are. Can't do that if anyone elsedoes it
Did your oil rings have a top and bottom, I’m building mine now and I can’t see any marking or taper to tell me which way 😩🤣?
Oil control rings can go either way. Compression rings are marked
what a lovely job you did congratulations !
Well done mate!!!
When you get it "finished" (if they ever are😂) contact Jamie at officially gassed. He has a great channel and loves a homegrown hero (I'm not affiliated 😉). Loving your work Sean, been following from the start😁
that would be great
Great work mate 10/10 👍 Hope the house move goes well with no dramas!
Amazing build firstly....i just cant help think the double exhaust out the back on seperate angles would have suited it better but nice never the less.
Function over form!
Est encore ta pas vues le evo saxos un chassis Mytsubychie La voiture mitsoubitue chimique by souveraicicaux le mytsubichi juste le châssis mitsu la carrosserie saxos par déçu simple efficace à plus savoir qui manger 😂😂❤
Combien pèse l auto 700 kilos il lui faut donc 450 en bie turbo Citroën avait dit en 2012 qu il allait sortir un saxos bie turbo de 450 ch bien sur c était du feak mais n en pêche que porche et ferrarie on eux tellement peur qu ils ont sortie le rs2 et la 458 ❤😂 bie turbo sir pour que sa fonctionne ❤😮
Please is for sale thé cars sir yes ho yes je vous laisse le choix humour frenchy sir 😂 ❤
Everything has its price!
Bha voilà avec sa si ta la bonne boîte ta l arme ultime ❤😂 si jamais tu le vend pense à bibi saint jean
Amzing job on the little turbo saxo seriously well done!! Is there a way to turbo my little 106 tu5 jp4 lump without forging the engine? Im aware of the costs involved. im hoping there's a cheaper way to turbo my little engine without chucking millions of pounds into it? Wish you was my next-door neighbour 🤙
Yeah quite easily. It'll have to be a low pressure system. 180-200bhp is safe on a standard engine
Take it to the nurburgring for micha. That will be a testament to the build and probably the car that will convince him that French shit boxes are better than a Honda 😂
This is the ultimate B road geezer mobile. Love it!
If I ever design a production car I will definitely be calling it the Geezer mobile 😅
Lovely, 97 all original outside even the tailgate lights match and a nice touch the Cup logo that Portugal used in their models, to celebrate the Cup back in those days
nice job ! 😀
Looks great where did you get your paint job done I think I missed it in another video mate!
Perfect finish in Coventry
i love that project, i love those small cars and with this turbo, it would be insane after mapping it! cheers
what an epic proper first drive! all the hard work is paying off!!
Let's not dismiss that 8 series in the background 😍 Also I may have missed it in one of the previous episodes but would you mind letting me know who did the bonnet for you please? Looks so good!
The wife will be pleased, that's her daily. The bonnet was done by Cool Louvres. My own design.
Nicee. Least you had some dry weather too try her out.. Fairplay well done
Needs a rear difuser
It's in the pipeline!
Great video hard work paying off 👍. There must be a fix to the brembo squeal, i here it alot from the 406 coupe brembo calipers, there must be a solution, looking at getting some for my 106 gti when i finished rebuilding it. Or should i stick to standard calipers and race pads.
It's the caliper design. Both equal sized pistons. They're a good cheap big power caliper. If I had more cash I'd go for the pug1off 6 pots.
lovely car. can't wait to see it again in more videos
Yeah I'm surprised you didn't delete that sooner, I've triggered mine on a bump lol, pretty annoying, I put mine on a toggle switch at the time,acts as a nice anti theft device lol,car goes mega!
Mad choo choo noises 🤩
Well done looking good!!!
Rapid! What ECU are you running?
Emerald k6+
Did you manage to keep the oem stepper motor for idle?
@@TheAshleystratford yes. Original throttle
@@SeanPendlebury do you have the ecu settings for it? I need to know the number of steps and Hz to get it to work with my emu black
I doubt my Emerald and your EMU will work in the same way. Best have a chat with pug1off or Northampton Motorsport
cant wait to see this round rugby 😂
She rips mate blimey 💪🏾
This is effin epic fair play. Miss the max power days, thanks for keeping it alive 🫡
was that a poor BMW getting revved to death at the mot station or your fan sounding like a 6 cylinder BMW engine :P
Good observation, it was an E46 M3! Deffo not my fan!
Thank you for choosing Quaife, we are glad you like the ATB. Keep up the good work!
Thanks very much. Happy to run some Quaife graphics if you wanna send some over :)
hello Sean I am French I followed the complete progress of your saco for my part I will soon launch in the assembly of my 106 maxi turbo can you tell me where to you bought your clutch stop? Regards
Hi Sean, thanks for the video,. Do you have any info on what shot blaster you use?
Hi. I use this SGS blaster with a 100L 14+cfm compressor www.sgs-engineering.com/catalog/product/view/id/8241/s/ssb200-large-blast-cabinet/?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwmMayBhDuARIsAM9HM8eL2pmzhc6Qcu0GZGZlEEWXdSEW_bDYE7aSH3Ls6EIdfkJNS_c34c4aAil5EALw_wcB
glad i am not th eonly one that hates putting a box back in to a 106/saxo.. My record is nearly 6 hours of struggle.....
Yeah it was hateful. My time was 4 hours but that's everything back together and running.
Just apply more elbowgrease 🙈
It’s cool to see it on the road under its own steam after all of these episodes.
I am missing the black thing on 11:19 where i can find it...i am searching it for months
Brother i need it😂
Do you know any site that i can find it
What was the new exhaust like, didnt hear you mention that unless i missed it?
Forgot to mention that. It's an acceptable level now. More engine noise due to lack of sound deadening.
Thanks for consistently saying lbft like a grown up
Not sure how else to say it mate!
Congrats on episode 60! Watched all of them. Goodnight Saxofans!
