iaz : on a side note, how low is your car, it looks a little too low..

phoenix recommend that you run 120mm from floor to chassis at the back and 110mm front, yours looks alot lower.

OE doesn't work. Get the bronze.

Professional opinion.

the colour is great but i'm really not a fan of those wheels.

maybe it's just me, but they cheapen the look imo, the original ones look 10 times better i think

I wasn't keen at first buts its really grown on me, personally i'd keep the wheels. They look different yet subtle, only thing i would do is 3/4 front plate

off topic slighty but how much u get these for these days...is the 2.2 na worth getting or has it really gotta be the turbo for the win...how reliable are both engines and the vx's themselves? any problems to look out for, for a pertental buyer???

turbo and na owners would argue the hell out of what is better.

basically the turbo is faster in a straight line and people report that there isnt really much lag from the turbo.

from owners that have owned both say the na is superior in the handling department, i know one lad who had a 300bhp or close to turbo and he now has a na at 150.. just because he prefers it.

you are looking at an extra 3 - 5k for a turbo and for that i have made a 2.2 just as fast, with 888's, and some more goodies.

so really its down to you, for traffic light grand prix's the turbo is the one you want out of the box.

Turbo is not a barge and certainly not a straight line car imo.
