My sentiments exactly.

The coilies could be wound down some more too.

Really nice car mate but would look better with standard headlights/no mudflaps/standard steering wheel and black calipers otherwise a lovely car and like others here, i wish i could afford to run a VR.

Thanks everyone  

How do I make sure the height is correct all round when adjusting the coilovers as she does look a bit high, especially at the back?


Due to costs I am finding she is not as bad as I thought.  Around town about 23-24.  I had a Volvo T5 for a few months.....Very fast but the best MPG I got was 18 around town!  Insurance for me on the VR is £387 fully comp so not that bad.

I measure from bottom of the coilover to the spring.

Spray plenty of wd40 first

Just wind them down to the bottom, that way you know they're both at the same height

The strangest thing is, My vr6 gives me an honest 30/31 mpg.  Don't get me wrong, i use it as a toy and tend to drive it when roads are quiet but on a sunday run I can get the trip up to 36mpg.  I'm well aware that these units can overread, however, if i actually calculate the amount of fuel i've put in against the miles i've covered if anything you'd swear the computer does the opposite.

Seriously, i wouldn't dream of putting a ten spot into even my 2.0tdi caddy but with the vr6 it seems to last for ages.   certainly lasts longer than even my interestingly economical 350z. she does around 27/28.

mine is 18 over thousands of miles
