[VR Foe] - Progress pics of my Legnum Super VR4 -VR FOE

[OSiRiS]

Hey guys.

I keep adding new stuff to the Legnum [VR FOE]. If you know me you know I've got something new monthly if not bi-weekly lol.

I have slowed down modding the VR4 over the last month or so as I have aquired myself a GSR [FEWGTV] 1.8L turbo with some very interesting and unique mods to make it oh so fast. I'll be using that as my dedicated speed/track car and the Legnum as my dedicated show pony

Here is a tempter shot of my new wheels my friend

Wheels are brand new 18" x 8" Koya Inox 10 on brand new Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 215/35/18 tyres.

Cool and a half That dish is awesome, really adds to the stance.

Keep up the good work, but are you really gonna ruin all that shiney paint?

Thanks for the comment about the wheels I've always loved dish. Every wheel that I've had has had at least 1 inch of dish hehe.

What you mean ruin that shiney paint?

[mpau009]

What you mean ruin that shiney paint?

I thought you had a respray lined up? or has that been put on the back burner. The paint certainly looks good in that pic though

[OSiRiS]

Oh hehe yea I was going to do it Candy Red. Which will go with the whole red interior theme.

I was planning to do it over the Christmas period or early next year, but that might have to wait because the GSR keeps begging for more attention lol

Thanks UC for dropping off that 17mm ring spanner at like 11pm. Oh and the torch so I didn't have to use the street light when working on the GSR LOL Oh and your VR4 sounded ****ing awesome on boost, twin gates and SSQV blow off valve. Good stuff!

[OSiRiS]

This was when I had to get it towed home after I hit a little stump on the ground which wrapped the fuel tank shield around the driveshaft Waaay too low

[OSiRiS]

Front still needs to be painted, it's not perfect yet

Look how low it is The outside diameter of my new wheels, 215/35/18 are alot smaller than the old wheels 215/45/17 so it sits even lower than before!
