"Deport" VR6 Build!

[AKA VR6]

Hey guys!
Over the next few months i'm gonna be doing some pretty interesting things to my car so i thought id make a build log before they happen, so i myself can get some advice but also show you guys how i roll.


Watch this space, because as im now newly employed at a new job, i plan to add some minor mods to this baby and make it suitable for a daily driver!

Will update soon
Cheers guys

Same thing as jom, tuning art etc.

Nice little ride you've got yourself. Good luck with it.

I was told that they are just-as-good as, if not better than raceland ones!
Because i cant find reasonably priced ones that are in australia, the ta technix ones are the cheapest but best value for money ones ive heard. Maybe i heard wrong?

Depends on what you deem best value.

Yes, they are one of the lowest capable coilovers. Then that's about it it.

No damper adjustability, pretty uncomfortable, too soft in the rear once you start getting low.

Being young, you'll be able to deal with them. I did and they were fine. I'd recommend removing front helpers and getting the rear springs reset 2" shorter before installing.

Very nice mate. Looking forward to it being dumped on its ass.

Front badge painted matte black, mudflaps removed, rear badge deleted, new front lip ordered, front indicator reflector things tinted to match indicators, and washed and waxed and looking stunning!
Will post some pics up when this rain stops

After that, gotta wait a few months to pay off some debt and also work some more then i can finally order some coilovers then ill be 100% content with the car, and that shall be the final product. Until i get bored again

Also some advice please: when i change gears after i pull out the clutch completely it jumps (acceleration stops) for a second then starts to accelerate. Is this a problem i should look into or is it just some minor mk3 problem?

Til next time!

Havent really updated this but... Good news.
Just bought myself some CX racing coilovers, they should be here in a few weeks
Car is going into budget exhaust tomorrow to get an entire new system and probably de-cat and all that nice stuff too.
Saving up for some new rims.
And a Euro plate soon!
All coming along nicely.

Got my car back from Budget Exhaust today. Had some suitcase mufflers removed as well as a hot-dog and a new stainless steel pipe.
HKS muffler. Bit disappointed i got single pipe not dual, but im getting used to it.

Its loud... too loud actually. Ive ordered some dynamat for the inside of the car because it actually numbs your ears when accelerating. "br0 keep it lyk dat or 3lse its not a rACECAR!!!"
It sounds great from the outside but inside is just unbearable. Also it accelerates so much faster now. Like somuch faster, its crazy.

Ill upload a take off video some time in the next few days!

To come:
Cobra Sport Lowering Springs 60mm - I cancelled getting coilovers as i found out sure, they arent illegal, but i just cant get it re-rego'd with them on and its not worth the hassle in my opinion, as i wont be changing the height much anyway.
Deep Euro Lip (just ordering one tonight of ECS) - Cheep but cheery mod
And as far as the car goes, i think that will be all im doing to it for a bit. It rides really nicely and the paintwork is mint, hopefully soon it will be show condition
