[Kieran]

Good luck with getting it all done....




...But Fast Car magazine?!:inquisiti

[Beastlee]

Uh oh, after all I spent on my car I'll now have to sell it. Watch our Uk insurace sky rocket guys, hope you all have trackers.

With all due respect, it's not exactly representing your typical VR4 either, at least the stealthy amongst us should be safe, it will look nothing like a VR4 LOL.

its ok i have a trade policy so i never have problems

With all due respect, it's not exactly representing your typical VR4 either, at least the stealthy amongst us should be safe, it will look nothing like a VR4 LOL.

with all due respect , its not ment to be your typical vr4 as the feature is desined to show what you can do with a vr4

ti will look nothing like a vr4 ? it is vr4 legum , if it looked nothing like a vr4
then it wolud be a volvo 850 t5 /pan

this is how it use to look

:p

I see your comment in the quote re insurance, that's all well for you but the majority of us don't. Sorry if I sound rude but one of the nice things about VR4s is not many people know about them.
Fast Car is a chav magazine and is a nice source of info for theiving scum to learn all about our cars. I just fear for us all now that the VR4s will be highlighted across the UK. My earlier post may be tounge in cheek but don't be surprised if the theft rate increases.
I'm all for magazine sessions but with reputable mags as has been done before but these are just cheap porn mags. Of course this is merely my opinion and I hope you get it all done in time, I will be interested to see the article. You should get some good press for the business too which will be a bonus.

[MR.VOODOO]

i agree with this part to a certain degree
but these are just cheap porn mags.

but i think fast car is much better than max power
fast car has been going for over 25 years as a magizine

[WildCards]

I don't think it's as bad a picture as your painting Beastlee. Insurance companies the chavistocracy only have to look on ebay to realise that every VR4 is a meelion horse power monster race car just begging to be unleashed on the unsuspecting UK highways :p

Voodoo, your car IMO is a good advert for your company, the workmanship from what I can see is to a good standard and any magazine appearance can only help raise the profile of your company. I prefer the stealthy VR4's personally, but for your purposes it's cock on.

[Kieran]

...the chavistocracy only have to look on ebay to realise that every VR4 is a meelion horse power monster race car....

Thing is though, I doubt chavs would look on Ebay for either a Galant, legnum or a VR-4 because they don't consider it a performance car, innit. That's the point.

I for one agree with beastlee and whilst my opinion is nothing against Ian (having seen that car at santa pod it's an impressive beast), I regard Legnums or Galants being featured in that type of magazine as unwelcome, for the reasons that Lee's already mentioned.:sad3: :sad3:

Time to order a set of GLS badges! /help

[Robotnik123]

I think you UK'ers may be worrying a bit too much about the public perception of your VR-4s. VR-4s are very common in NZ, but even so they are still overshadowed by Subarus, Nissan Skylines, Evos and such like. The masses still mostly don't know they are performance cars. At least this is the impression I get talking to various random peeps - e.g. I sometimes get comments like "yeah it looks nice, but a legacy would be heaps faster, aye". That sort of thing...

[Louis]

I recall a lot comments about raising the profile of the site??.

Surely any mag article is good, I have seen Legnum Vr4's in 3 mags since november, and 1 of those had two unrelated Legnum VR4 mentions.

Also the Jap performance mag with the photo shoot and time trial at Bruntingthorpe gave out 0-60 times and general "This is a fast and manouverable car, with evo 4wd and ayc" etc, and also mentioned upgrades and what was good to be done to the cars.
What I mean is, whether it is liked or not, more and more people are finding VR4's (mostly legnums) on ebay etc and the cost of a 1996 import is within a lot of peoples grasp, they are not that secret any more.
I don't think it will ever turn into the replacement for the ford escort, vauxhaull nova etc (seems to be that scoobies have taken that place he he).
Any publicity is good publicity (maybe!)

If they became very poular I would buy something else (Skyline estate), as I like the sneaky stealth approach, (but I am always on the verge of clicking on the buy Carbon Bonnet now!!), although I blow my cover tooooooooooo many times burning of other so called fast cars. Which means I am sure a few people around localy know that my car is fast, (and that always creates the danger that some body may come round some time for a joy ride).
There are always 2 sides to making something more desirable!.
I would rather date a model than a fat chick no one else was interested in! lol ( can't believe I just typed that lol!), but you know what I'm getting at.

Well, anyhoo!. Good luck with the mag article and well done for getting them interested in doing it, I hope your business does well out of it.

I'm off to photoshop a Burrberry paint job onto my leggy he he.

Might be worth a mention that the Evo Brembos can be used as an upgrade also?

Just my 2cents.

[Beastlee]

Many of you already know I like to be controversial and this is one of those occasions. Kieran's statement actually works in my mind, they wouldn't see them on ebay as they would never do a search for Galant or Legnum, perhaps VR4 for a GTO. Hopefully the thought of an auto/tippy may save us LOL, unless you have a manual box.

I am full of support for Ian and I have already mentioned that I hope it helps him with his business my only gripe is the particular Magazine. I used to read Fast Car and not Max Power becasue it was a better mag but I flicked through a couple of issues at the end of last year and it was absolute tripe. I like looking at beautiful women but it was 70% adverts, 25% girls and 5% cars. Perhaps that our saving grace, most buyers will be 12y.o kids who want the porn without being 18 LOL

Please take all I say in a light-hearted way :iloveyou: , it's always good to /STP though, especially with you lot /pan

[Paul Beazer]

I think everyones getting a bit wound up over nothing. TBH it reeks of snobbism a bit, yes fast car is a bit of a "top shelf" car mag, but surely there are some people who read it who dont feel the need to rob every VR4 they encounter!
Besides we should encourage people to take an interest in our cars. To fail to capitalise on an oppertunity to tempt new blood away from the Scoobies, CTRs and the like would be foolish.
If you dont like the attention your chosen car gets, dont get one!

Rant over, deep breaths.....

[Beastlee]

I don't think snobberism really comes into it, I bought a VR4 because it's a fast car that most people have no clue about. I and I guess a few others would like it to stay that way for the most part. I am always trying to make others aware of the wonder of these cars but I choose my victims carefully.
Given the way Scoobies, etc are viewed by many, especially insurance companies (and for good reason) I'm not sure I want them transferring to VR4s, besides, who would we have to laugh at? Once they see the article, everyone will want a VR4, after all they are the best car in the world!

PS. I'll be quiet as soon as work picks up again.

[Nick Mann]

Nah - balls! Most of the Chavtastics won't even read an article about estate cars! And then they'll never see one for the next few months, so will forget anything they did take in.

I think there is a bit of boy-racer in all of us (Why have we got nice/fast/modified cars if not?) and there is bound to be a part of Ians car that I will lust after. Fair play to you, Ian! I might even buy the relevant issue and shout about it, just to annoy the miserable buggers above!! :P

[WildCards]

they are the best car in the world!

You forgot this :p

[bradc]

I think Nick said it best :) I personally can't wait to see the pics

[Kieran]

It is a snobbish attitude, I accept that. However but I really don't want the average Lax Power neanderthal latching onto these cars - and whilst I agree some interest is good, I don't want people with more ASBOs than brain cells taking an interest in our cars, thankyou very much!! I worry enough about my car's security!!


If you dont like the attention your chosen car gets, dont get one!

And there in lies the problem. One of the best things about the VR-4 is the stealth factor. As soon as that is removed.... I no longer wish to own one. I accept that one day they'll have some level of recognition but for now they don't outside of those in the know and I'm quite happy with that!.


...Most of the Chavtastics won't even read an article about estate cars! And then they'll never see one for the next few months, so will forget anything they did take in.

Okay, maybe you're right on that. At least I HOPE you are!


I think there is a bit of boy-racer in all of us (Why have we got nice/fast/modified cars if not?)

Yes there is, but there's degrees thereof - And the slant of a Mag such as Fast car makes me uncomfortable with the people it would attract!

[evo1]

The stealth factor is one of the reasons my car still rolls on its original wheels and also why i choose not to own a later model Evo.We all hear stories of house break ins and such for keys.
Stealth cars are good because there is less chance of undesireable attn.
And im not just finding out about legnums recently,it was on the list of cars to consider before i chose the evo,and will make a great stealthy replacement when my family grows.

he he,i drive a proton with a body kit.(shame it doesnt sound quite like one)

[shaun1978]

Hmm the first time i saw one i knew it wasnt your common or garden variety estate car , that was 9 years ago when i was 21 so im sure 21 yr olds nowadays would recognise it as something out of the ordinary

[Beastlee]

If you dont like the attention your chosen car gets, dont get one!

Sorry forgot about this point....I bought one because it didn't get much attention. If it now gets unwanted attention I would sell it, as long as I could afford to. Then I'd be back to the old dilemma "What can I possibly buy that has everything of the VR4 and costs only £3K?".
My second car was a Citroen BX 16V, I was 20 and all my mates laughed at me....until it kicked the arse out of almost any of their cars. (0-60 in sub 7 secs back in the 90s!)



Hmm the first time i saw one i knew it wasnt your common or garden variety estate car , that was 9 years ago when i was 21 so im sure 21 yr olds nowadays would recognise it as something out of the ordinary
As was the case at the German garage yesterday when I got my tyre sorted. The young lads working there were smiling and trying to get sneaky looks around it because they knew something was a little different about it. The old guy was confused when he had removed four of the wheel nuts as they only know of them to have 4 not 5. His face was a picture /haz.
The difference being though, they knew it was different but unless they see under the bonnet or see it in a prolific mag they may just mistake it for a kitted up estate.:baby: They definitely knew it was different as I pulled out /rally.

Nick - You're right about the lusting, I long for an Evo carbon bonnet but it just goes against my stealth plans, I do think I could get away with the normal carbon ones though ;) I agree about the pics though it will be a fantastic sight.

Kieran/evo1 - I'm glad it's not just me firmly on this side of the fence :iloveyou:

Oh and as Steve said :p

[MR.VOODOO]

i think you are missing the point a standard vr4 look very like a galant estate
and i dont thing the chav,s wont knwo the diifrence
i am the won who should be worried when they find out i have £5000 worth of stereo in it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mind you i do own my own car alarm / stereo company so if it does get nicked
i will look a bit silly ?

[Kieran]

i think you are missing the point a standard vr4 look very like a galant estate
and i dont thing the chav,s wont knwo the diifrence

Exactly, so just like back in the 1990s when the Sierra Cosworth was king, anything that looks vaguely like one, whether it is a genuine one or not could be targeted!/Grrr

[Beastlee]

mind you i do own my own car alarm / stereo company so if it does get nicked

Yeah but at least you know Nick will have it because he couldn't reisit all the shiny stuff /haz /pan

[Nick Mann]

? How much shiney stuff do I have on my car? I too enjoy the stealth factor, but that doesn't mean that I don't appreciate some of the bling too.....

And Kieran - do you really think that the Galant will ever have the same public profile as the Sierra? Or the VR4 as the Cossie? /pan

[Beastlee]

Nick, it was supposed to be a joke based on :

I think there is a bit of boy-racer in all of us (Why have we got nice/fast/modified cars if not?) and there is bound to be a part of Ians car that I will lust after.

I have already admitted to being just as bad and I am trying to fight back the urge to go for a monster body kit but I just keep repeating...don't let them have a clue before you toast them...

[MR.VOODOO]

Exactly, so just like back in the 1990s when the Sierra Cosworth was king, anything that looks vaguely like one, whether it is a genuine one or not could be targeted!/Grrr

i think you are a bit parinoid ( cant spell ) are you one of those people who
have to lock your car 3 or 4 times to make sure it is locked :iloveyou:

p.s where do live , i cant imagine where it can be , must be very bad round those parts

[Kieran]

And Kieran - do you really think that the Galant will ever have the same public profile as the Sierra? Or the VR4 as the Cossie? /pan

Of course I don't!/pan

But the fact remains, Neddy No-Good and his Cider-Swilling mates manage to look at the pictures in Fast Car (I don't expect them to read the words, obviously), and then they spot... Say a V6 Sport. They wonder if it's one of "them fast estatz, innit" and the next thing the window's through and the steering column is being dismantled!

Now that could/would/does happen anyway in today's world, but I firmly believe that exposure in magazines such as Fast Car/Max Power, etc. increases the risk. Maybe not by a great deal, but I consider *any* increase in recognition by the criminal fraternity as a cause for concern!:soaprant :soapbox:

[Paul Beazer]

Personally i like my car because it looks so different from what everything else does, although i accept this may sometimes draw unwanted attention.
Its always fun when an unsuspecting victim tries it on and gets a surprise (even tho its not a VR4).
On and i am a snob too, towards "lesser" cars or chavved up ones. Civics with big exhaust and stupid front bumpers mostly round these parts!
TBH These cars really arent likely to appeal to the average chav as they cant afford to insure them!

[Kieran]

i think you are a bit parinoid ( cant spell )

My car is important to me and as such I wish to preserve that - As I'm sure you do. Fair play to you for getting some magazine coverage, I can understand your reasons, it's a very shrewd way of picking up business. Hoever I do regret the publication that your car is to be featured in. I (rightly or wrongly) believe that it attracts the wrong sort of attention.


are you one of those people who
have to lock your car 3 or 4 times to make sure it is locked :iloveyou:

I don't see how this is germane to this discussion. Can you be more specific on this point please?


p.s where do live , i cant imagine where it can be , must be very bad round those parts

An incorrect assumption. My location has no bearing upon my views.

i just think you are blowing this all out of propotion

[Kieran]

i just think you are blowing this all out of propotion

Yeah, you're probably right. I can be a bit dramatic! But as you can see I do have very strong and passionate views on this subject and I do fret about my car a lot. I'm sure the article will be a sucess for you and as Lee said earlier, I actually hope it is - Putting aside my concerns about the particular magazine for a second!

Anyway, I think that's it all off my chest anyway. I'm off to dig a moat around my Legnum, prepare the boiling oil and fortify the Ramparts - Just in case(!):scholar:

[Paul Beazer]

Dont forget the landmines, proximity detectors and razor wire K!

Just be grateful you have a garage and dont have to park in the street like some of us!

[Beastlee]

TBH These cars really arent likely to appeal to the average chav as they cant afford to insure them!

Paul, my point exactly, they can't afford one so they'll help themselves to one of ours when they see it. After all what can anyone do about it they have their rights. Either that or they'll drive it uninsured and kill someone with the same excuse. /pan


I'm off to dig a moat around my Legnum, prepare the boiling oil and fortify the Ramparts - Just in case(!)

Beat you to it, you forget I'm in Germany which is my double safety system, I have a nice moat to protect me from thieving chavs, I don't even need to wrry about an alarm (although if I know I'm driving back to the UK I will be fitting one, even for a weekend).


i just think you are blowing this all out of propotion

Perhaps this is all a little over the top but unfortunately it's also partially true. I grew up in Liverpool and learn't quickly that if you have it and someone wants it they will take it unsless you are over cautious.
I also have moved jobs a couple of times and on each occasion I considered exactly what insurance rating the area has, unless it's a band A (lowest) I won't move. I even turned down a job that woul dnow be earning me £40,000 because I woul dhave had to move somewhere with higher insurance costs.

PS. Love a good squabble -/threadrocks

[WildCards]

I grew up in Liverpool

/wall That explains it.

[bradc]

I can be a bit dramatic!



Wow, truer words never spoken etc etc

[Brunty]

Neddy No-Good and his Cider-Swilling mates

Kieran, you're so out of touch with todays youth (you sound like a 1970's H&S commercial (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHqqggwXbyE)) - just get a Mosquito wired up to your battery if you're that concerned.

I can only recall one UK car being stolen* (and recovered), and at a push you could say Wildcards SVR4 was subject to vandalism*. There have been many more cars damaged/written off by the actions of the driver. A trend that I'm sure will continue.

Mr. Voodoo - hope everything goes well for the shoot, and hope your business gets loads more work because of it.

:happy:

*corrections welcome

[psbarham]

if anybody was going to target these cars it would have been during the late 90's when they were in current production and in the press with road tests etc, for gods sake they are 10yr+ old cars now, if you were a scrote which would you choose, an evo fq eleventybillion with a cat 1 alarm or a vr4 (10yr old estate car) with a cat 1 alarm, they ain't gonna look cool in an estate car cruising round the town centre, plus what market is there for cheap parts? here thats about it.

[Brunty]

They did!

[psbarham]

They did!

Good luck Mr Voodoo...let us know how you get on...

[Wodjno]

Good Luck Mr VooDoo.. /rally

1 thing missing from your 1st post list was .. Boost Controller and Fuel Controller ?? Do you already have these fitted ?

[SHOWVR]

Good on you Mr Voodoo, car is looking great!!!!!
I wouldnt worry about all the pointless ranting, its your car so go for it:-)

[Wodjno]

Exactly why i asked the question above ! Cos i couldn't be bothered to wade through 3 pages of crap talk to find out :inquisiti

[MarkSanne]

I like the stealth factor so much, I am getting my busted standard V6 (non-VR4) front bumper fixed up right now to keep it as standard looking as can be!

I can get Motion/VR4/Legnum/aftermarket bumper/bodykits easily, but for that ultimate stealth look I'm sticking with the (somewhat modified to get it fit) standard front bumper.

As I live in Holland where we have LHD the VR4/Legnums will never be widly known/recognized as something special. Thankfully!

[Davezj]

how did it go?

[MR.VOODOO]

had the photo shoot went well looks hard we did it under a fly over looks very
URBAN ?

i need to do some words so a couple of questions what is the most bhp some one has got out of this engine and is it in the uk ?
i know some one here run a 12.48 1/4 is this still the qucikest ?

many thanks ian

[WildCards]

Derek still holds the fastest quarter mile I believe Voodoo, i'm not sure who's got the highest horse power (non-NOS assisted) VR4, it's got to be between Brad, Nutter John & Nick Mann though hasn't it? With Gowf to blow them all into the water shortly I imagine. I stand to be corrected though.

[Nutter_John]

Bradc will have the fastest car on stock turbos , gowf and mpau009 will be very quick on upgraded turbos , valmes also is on td05's .

Derek has a 12.48 with nos
BDA / Engina has a 12.41 with nos , but daves was very very stripped out

mine is around 320-350 ish

Kevin AP got to around 500bhp before his forged engine blew

[WildCards]

Oh yeah, i'd forgotten about Kevin and Valmes. Whats the fastest 1/4 without NOS?

[AncientOfMu]

There were a couple at least in Japan running 500bhp i think but cant remember how modified they were.

The Jun one and ...

[Nutter_John]

we could check on the qtr mile times slips within this site , oh we can't cos its still not working (sloppy admins )

I think the fastest none nos was something lie 12.8 ish

[Kieran]

we could check on the qtr mile times slips within this site , oh we can't cos its still not working (sloppy admins )

/grr

You've no idea!/pan

[bradc]

Yeah there was a Jun one with two TD05's. Mine will be the quickest on stock turbos without NOS.

[DickBarton]

When I bought Axeboy's he had told me what he had done to it to get more power...I don't remember it all but I'm sure he said once he had finished tweaking it he was getting almost 450bhp out of it - but I can't be certain...it was then returned to pretty much standard before I bought it.

[Gowf]

450bhp is quite a claim on stock turbos and internals.... Thats around the figure im hoping for at the moment on stock internals to see how they cope with that power, but that is with TD04's and £14000 of investment

[g6acb]

£14000 of investment


That's a lot of Buckie :happy:


I can't wait to see the finished article at some point this year :pimp2:

[DickBarton]

Gowf, it sounds mental huge, which is why I'm not certain of it...Axeboy was running off loads of mods and stuff and it was just going in one ear and out the other, which is why I'm not certain...it could have been 400bhp and 50 something elses...I'm really not sure...

[Gowf]

That's a lot of Buckie :happy:


I can't wait to see the finished article at some point this year :pimp2:

That doesnt include the forged rebuild either..... i dont actualy know where ive got the cash from....maybe its time to start opening credit card statements!

Sorry about the thread hijack, Getting a leggie into a magazine does definately give you respect in my book. Everone buys a car for their own reasons, so good on you...I'l definately be purchasing a copy to see what they say

[bradc]

If I had to guess, Axeboy would have had about 350-360hp.

As for Gowf's money, well come on, show us some results!

Wholly ****:speechles I thought i had it bad... cant wait to see the results tho, especially a detailed look at your fuelling setup;).

Mr Voodoo, thats some awesome recognition getting in a magazine. Id love to do the same one day, and your car is always finished to a great standard. Make sure you steal a pic or two for us!

Don't forget Bonsaiboy :thinking:

[Nutter_John]

good point Glenn , not seen him around for ages , do you know if he's still got it ?

[Kieran]

Does anyone know what the spec of Bonsai's car was/is?

Ian - Have you got permission? As wodj says, we might be infringing copyright if not. But yeah, if you have then post away - In fact if you have high resolution images I can upload them to appear in the 'Press' section of the site.:scholar:

Once the next issue is out the copyright laws are relaxed and you can scan it, but not whilst it's a current issue. Wait a month Voodoo, then bang it up mate.

Seems the NAAFI don't get Fast Crap just Max Pooer and a selection of make specific mags. I'll have to wait it out to see what the article was like.

Without wanting to sound contradictory I think it's a bit poor that they missed out the mention of the forum if we are the main source of info and it was specifically mentioned at the shoot. Those with a genuine interest will make the extra effort though ;)

Well I Purchased said copy of magazine this evening and all I can really say is


Bruhahahhahahah

Bits especially amusing was the Facelift rear spoiler on the standard pre-face spoiler being "from a really rare Legnum known as the Super VR4"

The car being a '96 of course came out of the factory with 300bhp standard.

The "Cypher" bodykit made me chuckle too.

However it was nice to see that the leggie was by far the cleanest in the feature and full kudos to you at getting it in the magazine.

I was hoping for my son to be able to read the article but hey ho I think at 7 hes a bit young for Kayleigh and whatsherface :P.
