vtr/vts

[hesslevtr]

have been thinking over weekend about buying a vts as im a bit bored of my vtr then 1 of my mate sugested tuboing my vtr as its hardly got any miles on the engine and would be different smileys/smiley2.gif

[Graeme]

get a turbo matey!!!

[Certi]

Sell your VTR engine, drop a VTS engine in and then turbo that smileys/smiley16.gif

[hesslevtr]

yeah was also thinking of that but might work out cheeper to just buy a vts as i fancy a change of colour aswell i really like the dark blue,dark red and black

[grantsmith1985]

Sell the VTR, buy a VTS for roughly the same price, and then turbo that when you get a bit bored of the VTS power, and you get a new colour aswell. smileys/smiley2.gif

[Certi]

There is a supercharged VTS in the "for sale" section for £6K. Or is it definetly a turbo you'd want?

[artnmotion]

Turbo a VTS smileys/smiley4.gif

I am doing that

[DevilDamo]

and would be different smileys/smiley2.gif

cough... cough... saxoal smileys/smiley2.gif

i wanted to drop a vts lump into my vtr but my insurance company would not touch me, but they would if i went out and bought a vts. but im now glad i got rid of the vtr and have the vts.

[gafvts]

i would drop a vts engine in mate,can get it done cheap enough,dont think you will have a problem finding an engine either

[DevilDamo]

i do agree with craig in saying that you could buy a vts lump and have it fitted for a good price. you wouldn't spend any more than £1k. i was quoted around £800, but the insurance company had the final say.

[gafvts]

devildamo could you not have swapped insurance companys.

[DevilDamo]

nope... because i would have been paying over the roof for my modified vtr, let alone a vts conversion.

[hesslevtr]

i got a quote for a vts and its only about £100 more then my vtr but like damo said not sure about a vts conversion with my insurance

Certifiable iv seen that 1 im after a mk2 id rather have a turbo then a supercharger but not to fussy about that

[DevilDamo]

that is exactly how much extra i paid for going from the vtr to the vts. however i did loose a bit of money when selling the vtr because it was slightly modified. but, you should be able to pick up a decent mk2 for around £4,500.

[hesslevtr]

yeah im hoping to get about £4000-£4500 for mine gonna put it all back to standard apart from the front bumper where iv cut the slats out wish i wouldnt of done that now smileys/smiley7.gif

[Frevo]

If you want a reliable fast car, get a VTS.
If you want more power and something different but at a cost (less reliable, more expensive) then get it turbo'd.

[hesslevtr]

good point fred need it to be quite reliable
thanks for your sugestions im gonna have a think and il let you know what im going to do

Lots of good action in the Premium videos too...

Its about time I got a rollcage mount and got some new video footage sorted out!!

VTS option would be the safest bet... if you plan to turbo, be prepared to uprate and break a lot of pieces of kit...
