Everyone else seems to be doing these project threads so i thought id start one aswell, u can give any feedback u want although u probably wont change my opinion lol enjoy hopefully
heres how it looked originally, 1st night of owning it in snow !
another pic of it cleaned originally
got painted interior and sp door handles, followed by sony xplod ice set up and footwell neons, no pics of this atm will do some time
next got some black angel eyes, nice guy called mat off here
finally got alloys after waiting ages for the 4th 1 to be delivered, these 1s
got them fitted, no pics of them alone also bought an sp grill
then went 2 a breakers n got gti front bumper, spoiler and arches, these soon went on
got me bro in law 2 help me (pictured)
after all fitted
then got some sp pedals
new lexus rear lights to match black theme
fitting the lights, u can also see my amp n sub enclosure which usually is at the side of the boot
then bought smoked fog light and 3rd brake light
afterwards
then got windows tinted, by essex shades with amy
now im waiting on a new bonnet vent, smoked side repeaters and black front bump strip to be delivered. will post pics when they arrive.
UPDATE 29/05/10
got my vents n side repeaters delivered n on. bump strip turned up as front reinforcer bar so have to wait 4 another 1. heres the pics
just got to get rid of the look stickers lol havent bothered yet
and heres my future ride 
right plans changed a bit because i was on my way 2 see anthony_839 when some woman overtook me on the wrong side of the road because i slowed down 2 turn right. because of this she was in my blind spot when i turned right n banged it !
Not good.
Ok went to elite today n they did the diagnostic of the car didnt look too amazing, but after adjusting the front toe it brught the camber back in and then just re-aligned the steering wheel etc. Great news only cost £35 ! Now I need to find some sport wings, anybody selling??
more updates when i have them

If your going to do a engine conversion, and dont want to do the 2.0GTi
the 106 GTi and saxo VTs is the next best thing
I'm slightly biased to the 106 engine as that what im using

Ah okay, the 106 engine has 10bhp more than 206 one
Ive heard of V-Tec engines dropped in 206's in Asia, never over here tho

oh right fair enough, yeah heard about them but never seen any either. to be honest i want something with a decent turbo n not much hassle. my ultimate aim is to make it quicker than a golf gti
how much is your engine costing, literally everything i mean??

Nice little project mate
Like Mattie said if it's an engine conversion you want to do get yourself a TU5J4 engine out of a 106 GTi/Spaxo VTShite and get a TU5JP4 Head from a 206 XSi. Alot of the 106 boys do it as the J4 bottom ends on the 106s are alot better but the JP4 heads have got bigger valves. Also always use 106 internals head internals when fitting the JP4 head as they are much better aswell compare to the JP4 internals.
