Legnum Super VR-4

[AlanDITD]

We will have to disagree then Alan, to me those look quite sunken.

Hehe

See they are at the top cause of the camber with the car being lowered...but at the bottom they sit flush..

i have a pic with it not lowered ill see if theres a difference!

edit here we go...

Sit flush on the arches as far as i can tell..wow it was high!

[ANTHONY]

Aye but on the SOOOOOOOOPAH its meant to be satin!

Im off to sulk

i think they look better color coded...anyways looking good and i agree FL grill much better

PART V


With the new rear lip fitted, the Powerflow exhaust that had been fitted was now too short.

However, our other VR-4 has a Blueflame exhaust, which sits a lot further out from the exhaust.

A quick removal of the two exhausts:




And installation on the other car, and the exhausts sit much nicer now on both cars:






Eventually a dual-exit system will be made, but this is the best compromise for now. The other cut-out in the rear lip will soon home a fog light.


Next up... audio!

Yes but noone got them because Tri's are ugly

You're ugly, but you don't hear us all yawping on about it all the time, now stick something in that noise maker on the front of your head and see if some of the style that Kieran, me and one or two others around here have might rub off on you. If your lucky.

PART VI


Not only the exterior had cosmetic differences on the Super VR-4. The differences extended to the interior, where it gained red carpet, red/black gear lever & handbrake, red/black Momo steering wheel, purple-tinted dash gauges, and "carbon fibre" effect dash surround. Also on the list is are red/black door cards, rear seats, and matching Recaro fully adjustable front seats.

Most of this, fortunately, is present, other than the Recaro front seats, which have been replaced with other seats following a similar patterning to the doors, but only in blue, rather than red!

The steering wheel, too, has seen better days, with the red part VERY faded and damaged.



So, the aim has been to try to acquire the Recaro seats, a replacement steering wheel to restore the interior to factory "Super VR-4" standard.


Unfortunately for others, but very fortunately for us, we have managed to acquire not only these parts, but also original front canards, and sideskirts - from another complete Super VR-4 - this time, however, a Galant saloon:





And, now, the love-child of our other two


Unfortunately, this is how it was delivered to us...



The damage is, regrettably, terminal.







(We would like to meet the person who did this to the car... and punch them in the ovaries)

However - every cloud has a silver lining, and in this case, it means that the Legnum can now have the correct OEM parts - Recaro's, skirts, canards, and a steering wheel in better condition than the one currently there.

The plus side, too, is that by breaking the saloon for parts, we'll be able to make a bit of money back on it.

Every time we've gone outside today and seen that parked up there, it's made us feel physically sick seeing the damage to it, and knowing we can't fix it

I can't wait to see the finished pics of the red car.
