Hi

VXR with BSR remap

**luke4487** · 24th May 2010, 17:46

Ha btw cars been fine after a new improved header tank.. Due an exhaust and remap sometime after August once I am happily wed...

Then looking at new suspension and when the clutch goes, getting a quaife and an uprated clutch if ones available? I'm sure someone on here looked into one but can't find the thread? Courtney said there isn't one available or something?

All very expensive though.... Whats the best suspension set up then? I'm on the slightly lowered standard ones as I have the design but they roooollll a bit too much lol! Baring in mind the Signum is built like a bus!

My mate bought a Scooby p1... and I am looking forward to beating him again (he only bought it as his I beat him in his standard Impreza and he was not happy...) He's looking at upgrading it to 400bhp but hes already been through 2 gearboxes on the old car, and just blown his big ends on the new one after just 2 months... I did tell him to get a vxr

SWMBO would remove parts of my anatomy with rusty barbed wire lol

Lmao, yes, had a similar conversation on the way home from the meet with Telly Addict last Sunday. She doesn't so much object to the remap idea, just not while car still in warranty. can see her point, but she didn't get a ride in Cameron's 210bhp Vec..........

Another owner here

Got a 2007 250bhp version, remapped to 300bhp. Is running on VXR springs and 18" penta wheels. Needs new shockers soon.

Other mods include SMD conversion, rear boot spoiler, and traction control/sport buttons.
