Re: New Beater

Camber top plates and rear struts wouldn't fit so I re-used the VR4 front top plates and blown out OEM rear struts. I have a set of AGX's on order for the rear.

Those springs sit sooooo nice though, and the camber plates will fit the Summit (which is for sale, kinda)

Re: New Beater

FMIC is installed with 2.5" hot side piping. I am using the stock cold side pipes until I can get an aluminum 1G BOV flange welded up on my UICP

AGX's came by UPS today and are going in tomorrow.

Re: New Beater

Love it! Now I gotta ditch the ABS system and the Cruise setup.

It's takes a little more effort when at a stop and added about 1 extra turn lock to lock but there is so much more feedback. I can tell exactly how the car is going to respond to any given steering input.

I wouldn't recomend it for an AutoX setup but for open road racing and drag I'd say thumbs up.

Plus on a VR4 you get to ditch the 4WS and the 100 miles of lines that go with it.

I'll find out how it is this saturday. There's an autox test n tune saturday that I'll be going to just to get seat time and I have no ps.

Anyway, cool vr4. It's on my list of cars to own before I die/get married.

Re: New Beater

LOL, Especially when you compare it to the stock monster truck size wheel gap from the 1st pics


On another note, I ordered up a Gen 2 Maf-T today. As soon as it comes I can fap up my cold side piping and install Halon's old 50 trim.

Re: New Beater

Dropped some cams in it a couple of months ago.

Removed Cruise Control setup and replaced with non-cruise cable today. Also removed the old turbo setup and have the 50 trim ready to bolt on.

Now I just need my JMF intake mani and Jay Racing alternator relocate kit to get here soon so I can put this Bitch back together in time for the cookout.

Also suppose I need to sweet talk Shane into doing a tune on it!

Re: New Beater

Just installed my new exhaust!

Buschur 1G AWD cat-back modified to fit a GVR4.







The veiw most of the competition will see



Plenty of ground clearance now. The sound is great but a little loud. I'll be putting a resonator or two in there this spring.

Re: New Beater

Got in a fender bender today









Luckily it was at about five miles an hour. Even at that speed it bent the core support, bent the fender, cracked the corner light, creased the hood, and possibly broke the headlight mounting tabs.


She drove me 30 miles home just fine afterwards though.

I think I'll wait to put a new core support in it untill after racing season unless I can find one cheap.
