What do you mean "better VR6's"? I take it that it is a mk4 based 12V? Like the ones we didn't get here? If so, then it uses ME7.1. ecu so is better than older Motronic M based ones as it is more advanced, probably more tuning info on the net too. As a vague reply.........ALL VR6's are worth boosting! Personal taste is personal taste though!

Nice looks like the same colour as mine[emoji1303][emoji1303][emoji1305]

Really good to see this being rescued! This car was built pretty much alongside mine at PF Auto's. In fact the stereo stuff that was the boot build is my old stuff from my VR! Think its a bit unfair about the comments on the bodyshop as they did mine at the same time and it still picked up a trophy in it this year at EE. All that's been done in all those years is the front changed to Vento at Greg Howell's (Southam Bodys), rest of it is as it left PF Auto's, not bad considering I paid less than £1800 (sure Pete paid even less for the green one!) for all the bodywork and bumper mods and a

Welcome to the club mate nice motor Any plans or just wanting to enjoy it?

After you've done a Landrover defender box laid on your back on the driveway - a VR6 is a piece of cake lol.... Still, at least it's done and working again.

Tunetechnic in Auckland did an awesome job. I sent them a spare ECU and they tuned it to our set up, the exhaust and air intake etc. They estimate an extra 15kw and 25Nm. It goes well, the torque is there all the time and peak power gives a real kick at the top end. The auto box is in its element, its smoother and more predictable. It has transformed the car. I also reckon it's the best looking VR6 in NZ!
