Lean green Swedish machine!
#1
Wink 
Going to do what i've been talking about doing for ages, and painting some of the black plastics green on my Saab!

Started on the wheels, have done the final paint coat and taken a quick preview!

people think they are so dull, but they can be tuned to be very exciting.

bit like a DT i suppose.

plan to save for some go next. need a steering rack brace first though.

Thought about dropping a 95 aero engine in? Stealth Vigen would be purely epic!

Gonna play with the 9-3 engine first!

£100 upgrade should get me 45 more bhp Smile
#17
Well look at it this way...,they did put that engine in the 93 Vigen...just very rare and rediculous. Where I used to take mine, he had a mint one that was mapped in a hirsch map to 310bhp and just shy of 400ft torque!

315bhp and 430nm is the highest kit on the site I normally buy parts from. There is a list of replacements parts as long as my arm in that though, and no price! lol

Elk parts? I had such a long list of stuff to buy from there!

neo bros! elk parts shut down
#21
Ah shit. Suppose that was probably because everyone got scared and sold their saabs when they went under!
Neo bros did me a good price when my DI cassette went!

Waiting for more paint. bumper needs another coat or two of green!!

Paint should be here on wednesday.
#25
ECP finally got my paint to me today! So am starting on finishing the paint on the front end! Will post pictures later!!
#26
*UPDATE*

As promised! I've finished the green spraying now. Car is happily sat in the garage waiting for the coats of lacquer tomorrow! But I have a sneak preview for all of you!!
