Love to see some pics mate, and a little more info :

1: What boost do you run at and which controller ?
2: What brake set up ?
3: What suspension set up ?

Cheers

You can take turbo pipes from cusco.

This is from Funky Products : ( http://www.funkyproduct.co.uk )
Here's the prices for the Cusco piping:

For a EC5W LEGNUM with 6A13 engine,
* CUSCO Aluminium Turbo Pipe
(including pipe from turbo to intercooler x 2 and pipe from intercooler
to surge tank x 1): GBP£269.00 all-in.

I allready order them from local tuner. :D
Funky is a litle expencive. :|


You can install a piggy back ECU Greddy E-manage works perfect on vr4's

i'm running 1.2 bar boost, with hks springs and bilstien dampers and uprated suspension arms to keep the geometrey right. for the brakes i'm running a fast road pad with bigger disks. has anybody in the club chipped their vr4? or does anyone know of sporty cams for the vr4? :)

I think one guy has played with cams. Several have played with chips - I think the greddy emanage. Do a search on greddy and see what turns up.

Where abouts are you based? If you can be in Sheffield for fireworks weekend, you may be able to have a look at a couple of quick Legnums. (See the Events section.)

There are two ways of catching up on ideas - at a meet, or reading through lots of old threads!

When your turbos start to SUUUUUCK (especially if you're running more than standard boost), you can see the standard woven textile pipes flex and ripple - not good for even, steady boost, and if you're running mega-ninja-whoneedspistonsanyway boost levels, the standard piping may let go. But the VR-4 isn't in much danger of that I don't think.
