        yep as woody says final drive reduction is a nice mod on a VR6. The tall gearing makes the car feel so laaaaazy
        And a nice light flywheel too. The stock one is like 18lbs or something

          That is a very heavy flywheel.

            Yeah a 10lb flywheel was something that I was considering!
            Its just that I don't have enough money to do more that a few mods at a time!
            So i thought that cams and a chip would probably be a good starting point
            But next I will look into a 10lb Flywheel
            Regarding flywheels though, don't lighter ones drop revs quicker?? = problem??

              Mine weighed a touch over 20lbs

              The autotech 10lb flywheel is fantastic, alot peppier.

              The 3.94rp will make you struggle for traction in 1st and 2nd all time.

                20lb... thats ridiculous!
                But yeah i've hada look at the Autotech 10lb Flywheel on MJMAutohaus!
                Definitely next on the list
                I'll most probably leave the Ring & Pinion out of the question as my VR6 gets driven a **** load! And don't want to be constantly revving high!

                      Go through Chris at tpr (forum sponsor) got mine for something like $250 shipped.

                      I paid for my LSD, flywheel, r32 engine standalone and fitting whilst working one shift a week and at uni.

                      You want something; you'll save for it.

                            Stay away from vortex. That's the best advice you'll ever hear

                              Haha fair enough! But I use vortex every now and then to get some idea's for potential mods and simple DIY's that aren't up on here!

                                It is a very good resource. But then you wonder into the picture threads, I have 1.3" from my sump to the ground(16.6"fender to ground) I want more lows.

                                Then then into the 12v tech forums flr 'bolt on' power. Im now Building a turbo kit up at the moment to, it never ends!
