Hi
thought Id better say hello rather than just lurk. I myself have not got a VR4 but drive a Skoda.
I have just obtained a Legnum VR4 with tiptronic for my Mum who is 73. As a family we do quite a bit of drag racing at RWYB events and when Mum came for her first time she blew the box on her Micra but enjoyed the day. So much so she is now a real pest constantly ringing me up to take her for days at Santa Pod and Shakespeare Raceway. A year after blowing her Micra and using her Fabia she has seriously stressed a V6 2.5 Rover 75 with 125 of nitrous to a 14.37 second pass @ 98mph.
She is working her way up in performance and when a friend rang me up and said he had a car for mum I was thinking another micra but NO he sold me his VR4! 4x4, twin turbo 2.5 v6 - this should be good for a 13 second pass or better for a little old lady.
Mum will be racing it this year so I am hoping to steadily modify and change things so she can steadily get faster!
When I found Club VR4 I thought I would join and hopefully get modifying ideas from here as well as other tips on repairs and spares. I do all my own mechanics and have a fair bit of kit. If you cant find the special tool in MY workshop, we go off and make it.
Anyone got any experience of nitrous on a VR4?
