bennyk 1,238 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Maybe I'll have my charger on by then! More chance of that than me winding my coilovers up bealieboy! Lol! We'll have to go to a different rolling road! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Bealieboy 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Bealieboy 1,625 Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Sounds good bennyk. We'll have to look into that, perhaps try the one where you rolled before and tag the VXROC onto our session this time! Would be good to see the difference our latest mods make. I reckon my hella quads will give me another 5hp possibly 6 if I take your pukka headlight mask Ben. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk bennyk and daveyboy 2 Link to post Share on other sites

DanChave 98 Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Great work on this, same colour as my first VR. Wish I had never sold that thing! Link to post Share on other sites
djiceman 131 Posted October 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 So had a bit of a moment last week and decided I was going to sell the VR.... Ended up getting a payrise at work and a few other things have all fallen into place.... So now I can keep it..... Yay....Battery is dead. Booooo.So I won some Corrado Speedlines on eBay last night...lol.I've now ordered a new battery for the VR too.Need to get the ABS controller back on too, had it refurbed by BBA Reman, took a week, cost about £200 including collection, delivery and refurb work.I have also put a quick release steering wheel hub on, so I need to relocate the horn button to somewhere on the dash....Hoping to have some of this done before the end of the month, along with raising the coilovers a little bit, I nearly ripped my front bumper off going into a drive..... Plus nearly pulled my exhaust off going over a speed bump.... D11PS 1 Link to post Share on other sites
djiceman 131 Posted October 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Just got home from picking up the Corrado Speedlines that I won for £92, got 2 Yoko tyres on and 2 "events", i'm guessing it means that driving with them on it'll be eventful.... Anyway, these wheels are absolutely spotless. Not one curb mark. Happy days. Cant wait to get them on, wanna find some spacers first though.... bennyk and Bealieboy 2 Link to post Share on other sites
bennyk 1,238 Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) What a bargain! I think events are about as budget as you can get. Can't complain at that price though! Oh and let me know how the abs ecu fix goes, need to get mine done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited October 13, 2014 by bennyk Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkWas such a simple process, they don't even ask for your money for any of it until they have asessed it. Once it's fixed, you get a lifetime warranty for it.

Two are 195/50's and two are 195/45's....I'm wondering if I should refurb them hyper silver and only use them during the summer months, which also means putting some sticky tyres on them too for track days next year....
