[timmyd]

Steve, dont think you'll fit in to the car in that last pic!!
Lovely motor mate, love the colour, in your face and bet it goes as well.

 

[planetx]

for all you LY lovers

 

[Timmay]

^ sex wee!

 

[col 182]

Very sex wee!

 

[Shotgunsjay]

thats some car, awsome!

 

[Justin]

You'll love it mate, night and day between it and the clio on straights, corners, anywhere!

A048's are easily the best tyres i've ever used.. Only thing for me was I just kept wanting an exige when I had mine, so finally had to bite the bullet and get it. Remap and Geo set up and you'll be laughing!

Your a lucky b*****d getting the speedlines on it, very sought after

My old one..

^ mint fella, is that moonland ? I see the one on the lft has a charge cooler, stage 3 or 4 car?

 

[Justin]

Yeah mine was moonland.

The other one is stage 3.5 i think, very very quick, and surprisingly very drivable day to day even considering the its set up to be a sprint car..

Vx220.org is great. Brilliant reasource imho, I found everyone there very friendly and helpful as well when I was looking at VX Turbos Did you find the first time you drove it, you opened it up and were just like "Holy s**t that's fast!!!" ?

Please don't put a diffuser on it, they look absolutely ridiculous on the VX. They stick out, and the popular ones look home made.

 

[martandem]

That looks pretty tasty.... although I have to be honest, the badge does worry me with these machines!
What gee gees does it kick out?

 

[cat171]

^ 200bhp, z20let engine 2.0 16v turbo (from the astra gsi)
Badge worries you ? pfffttt !!!!

That thing go at the back under the bumper ?

 

[Justin]

Diffusers looka alright on one with the right mods, but i personally didnt like them..

Surprisingly when i drove it first, i didnt find it much quicker than the 182, but just took a bit of getting used to really, after a remap it will fly!

 

[Hazza]

How small is ur number plate steve lol

 

[cat171]

^ with cars like that & elises etc it's rare to find one with a full size front plate on it. Most owners run with 3/4 sized ones.

I'm no fan of diffusers either really.

 

[Frasers Cup]

I love the speedlines... They must have set the original owner back a packet..

 

[Frasers Cup]

Oh and if I was getting a vx220 it would be the turbo with the speedlines or this...

Always wanted one! But Id like a elise 111r as well

Group buy over on vx220 iirc. Thorney sell them too (circa £500)

I love the vxr220, but not the seats in it.

 

[Adamski182]
