-
they run 300+ i believe. Sound like jet plane taking off so ive heard, and they pull like bonkers.
-

impreza is better :wink:

VR6-S is different :wink:
-
ratehr have vr6 - s tbh. more power and better noise.

I would swap one for a mk2 vr S if i was in your situation. scoobys drop in value quicker too. The mk2 will hold its price.
If its a mk3 vr -S...dont bother :tongue:
-
Depends what your after, hard to beat the 6 pot noise in my opinion. If the body is sound, i would go for it.

my friend dan had a mk3 vr6 with the z-engineering charger stage 1. it was a rust box, but was sorted and handled very well. would not rivall the 4wd of an impreza though.
sweet baby jesus it was quick though. ran at circa 270 set up by stealth. sounded like nothing else, had instant response. alot quicker than his previous g60 rallye and mk1.
look into the rotrex chargers
-
my mate had a mk3 vr6 with the z-engineering charger
jesus it was quick though beat our other mates mapped astra vxr and focus st easy. Fastest he went was 160 and pulled there like a train ran and sounded amazing. He sold it for a 58 corsa vxr saying he wanted a new car etc............
What did he buy yesturday another vr6 and he's going to turbo this one :tongue:
