    Exclamation List of possible mods for the VR4

    I thought it could be interesting to have a list of possible mods/aftermarket parts for the VR4 so I started one..

    But since I don't own one myself I'm hoping to get plenty of help of you guys!
    My intentions with the list was to be a help for new owners at this forum. Smaller mods like changing the gearknob is of course not included since the list would be a little too big..

    Missing retailer info and prices for lots..

    Regarding Stainless steel brake lines for the Brembo upgrade:

    Call Ian Grout at Exact Engineering in Totnes Devon on +44 1803 866464, tell him you are from CVR4 and you need a set to fit Brembo's on a VR4, he already has a kit designed with its own part number just for the Brembo's, don't forget and tell him what colour sheathing you want...
