Hi Guys,

Want to put a decent intake and suspension on my VR6, doesnt have to be anything crazy as this is only my daily car.

Suggestions please ?

This is what I did for my intake:

As for suspension, I imported something form Germany from a company that doesn't seem to exist anymore (and installed a Neuspeed Strut Brace at the same time):

No real point buying an intake, you can swiss cheese the air box (cut holes into it)

Get some cx racing coils off eBay if you want something decent.

For sure, if I make it to the next Parma night or DOVW we'll go for a spin.

Get some BC coilovers if you want good quality, quite pricey though.
as for intake, i just run a K&N pod air filter, which sits in the airbox with no lid, gives you a nice induction but grunty tone.
