VR6 - Still Stock

[sydVR6]

Yesterday, the car scored a little trip to the detailer.
Thanks very much to Dan of DMS Detailing for doing a great job on her.

She's still stock, apart from a set of new Bilstein B6, 'The shock absorber for those drivers who prefer a sports suspension but are not particularly interested in lowering the body' lol. Coveniently, the rear set were sourced from here on Watercooled. The fronts are courtesy of Pedders Mascot.

Aside from the shocks, the only changes are slightly uprated strut tops, R32 castor bushes from GAP and the addition of the deeper Euro-lip.

Just managed to snap these before it got dark after work.

wow that looks like a really clean example!
Nice work

Top stuff Reef, no doubt one of the cleanest VR6s out there!

Dude interior is as mint as the paint, very very nice. Dan sure knows how to do wonders to a car, I'm gonna chase up his mate Chris here in Brisbane for a detail on my mk2.

Mod plans?

[Mrk_Mickey]

That's not fair, you cheated!! Dan's work is perfect, your car wasn't this good before he came about

Just joking. Fantastic example. When they're clean, black vr6's are the best colour by far, and this is no exception!

Beautiful.

Hot, stock FTW

What was done to the interior? Or is it just good lighting on the leather and dash...

Interior wise, the upholstery was shampooed and the leather trim cleaned. A light protectant has been applied to the dash and interior plastics.

AusScare - No more mods in the pipeline atm. For now I'm really happy with the look and performance, as is. The plan is just to keep it all neat & clean.

Struck a pretty good balance between ride and handling by fitting the Bilsteins - things are firm but by no means harsh, which was always the plan.

Thanks to all for the feedback and comments - very appreciated : )

Awesome. Great to see a looked after VR6 that hasn't been "riced up"

Phwoar that is mint! I can't wait to get a decent detail on my Dub.

That is super clean, looks like it just rolled out of the factory!
The only think I would do is smoke your indicators, reflectors and spotlights

What product was used on your plastic trim do you know?

Feel free to ask Dan from DMS about the plastic trim - he's contactable through the site in the OP. I think it was called 303? I indicated that I wanted a silicone free product, as I'm dubious about the effects of silicone based protectants.

With the original indicators and frosted reflectors, I've always thought they were such a massive part of the Mk3 look. Plus, I kind of see them as a little design feature they share with the Porsche 944 and 928...





It is a very small resemblance. I might only be imagining it. Maybe I could source some square rubber bumper riders from the 944 to complete the look. Might look good either side of the number plate recess : )

Thanks for the positive feedback Reef, its much appreciated.

Coons, i used 303 on the interior trim and all the exterior plastics as well

[coons88]

Anyone got a link to this 303? I normally use AutoGlym which I find good, but always looking for better
