Thread: My new to me VR4 :)

  1. #1

    My new to me VR4 :)

    Hello,

    Looks like the move to 3sgto is going well, getting populated. I have been tuning DSM's for several years and have a 628 whp dsm myself. Built the motor and did all the tuning myself (without going into specifics), and it has been running strong in it's current form for 2.5 years.

    I just bought my first VR4 a few weeks ago. It took a bit to find one as I wanted a low mileage one. It is a 1993 and has 61,000 miles, and 60k is done. Interior and exterior is perfect other than the notorious cracked defrost vents, which I will replace with the easy install ones soon. All the devices work including Active Aero and ECS.

    Only mods are: ATR DP and catback with high flow cat. Y pipe has been upgraded. 3SX underdrive pully as I didn't trust the stock one from separating after reading up. Greddy Type S Bypass valve. Matrix air filter kit from 3SX. Blitz DSBC Spec R EBC. Blitz turbo timer. Autometer boost gauge.

    Here are a few pictures. It is a little dirty cause of a quick rain while I was at work. I work at a dealership so I am going to have it washed, buffed with wax, and detailed tomorrow. More pictures to come after that. Tell me what you think.
